This is a great book on Feng Shui and Flying Stars, presented by authentic master.
The book also contains a lot of case studies and it’s ideal for all those who would want to learn more about real Feng Shui practice.

Such a great, great book! Used to be one of my all times No.1 on FS.
Now I combine it with a new release (2017 or 2016) "Course in Real Feng Shui" as support to my professional practice and consultations.

I own have been using "Black Hat" feng shui for the past year and half. Now that we are planning to move to a new place, I decided to look into it more in depth, especially since doing some research I found out that Black Hat feng shui is poo-pooed by many feng shui practitioners as an alter-ised and westernized form of feng shui that's really too far from the original to work.

Browsing and researching, I came up with a few titles that were highly recommended. I ended up getting this one because I own have been using "Black Hat" feng shui for the past year and half.

OMG, was that ever a mistake. There is so much involved between calculations, cartography and so on that the only way to have a house that fits into your ideal feng-shui "picture" is to have unlimited cash, location and placement possibilities when building your own. No way you can apply this if you are renting, especially if it's a smallish apartment or house and you don't have many different ways to set-up the space.

I think I'd MAYBE recommend this to someone who is building their ideal house and has time to look for a good place to buy land etc, basically starting from scratch with the book. Otherwise, the knowledge would be purely academic and not of much use.

If you want applicable knowledge and tips on how to set-up your house/apartment, get "Clearing the Clutter for Good Feng Shui" by Mary Lambert instead, and leave this complicated manual on the store shelf.

And as a side note: Black Hat feng shui may be considered inferior, but at least it's easy to understand, fun and inspiring. If you are interested in learning more about Black Hat feng shui, the book to get is "Move Your Stuff, Change Your Life" by Karen Rauch Carter.

When I think of our new apartment, I think about creating something that feels like home, a place to unwind and feel comfortable, a place that reflects US, not someone else. Creating your own living space should be an inspiring creative process, not a chore or something you dread. It should feel like fun, not hard work. If you agree, then this book is really not for you. ...more

Shelves: proyecto

por dios...es una biblia de feng shui (lo cual no es malo), pero tener una circulación de energía buena en una casa hoy en día es mas difícil que entender los capítulos esenciales de Rayuela.
No toca temas del interior tan a fondo, es mas una guía de exteriores y como ordenar una casa.
oh, y espejos y cristales EVERYWHERE
