Feng Shui: The Way to Harmony

Feng Shui: The Way to Harmony is a practical guide which introduces reader to this potent Chinese art. Feng Shui is a kind of Chinese earth magic, the appropriate placement of objects to create the best energy flow for an environment. A philosophy of Chinese origin, it maintains that the configurations of the earth shape the affairs of men. Though many of its precepts are based on sound practical sense, others seems merely a matter of convention, while much of the canon of feng shui lie beyond any rational explanation. The underlying tenets of feng shui can be traced to the very roots of Chinese culture. Its impact on Chinese society is immeasurable; whether in the planning of cities, the siting of temples, the layout and orientation of homes and workplaces, the constructions of vast modern office buildings and the routing of railways or in the way in which a belief in feng shui affects the organization of daily life.
