The Complete Idiots Guide to Feng Shui, 3rd Edition (Idiots Guides)
Flying the stars backwards or forwards is one of the most intimidating subjects i found, but like plenty other subjects within the book, all it took was a bit of peace and quiet and re-reading forwards for the whole thing to shine in the light of understanding. This is a subject that should be carefully studied and practiced before applying it in your life. Any mistakes could be detrimental!!! Stephen Skinner wrote a wonderful Foreword on this book that says it plainly: Take a bow and hats off to them three for this master piece.

The book is very easy to understand. It throughly goes through the traditional flying star method of feng shui. It has detailed examples of applying the principles to different locations businesses, houses, ect. Later in the book it goes into Chinese astrology which can get complicated. It has examples of reading the 4 pillars chart but reading such charts is really beyond the scope of this book. Great starter guide with handy chart for reference Cons: Discredits other disciplines of feng shui.

Could go into more depth, discuss synergies between feng shui styles. This was my first book on Feng Shui and while the beginning wasn't too interesting, it's all about the history , I still kept reading because I really wanted to learn about Feng Shui. Once you get to the middle of the book, it's very interesting and I felt it was very informative. I was very excited about doing all the steps, the floor plan of the house, the compass reading, finding the year my house was constructed Then, getting to the part where they tell you, based on the flying star system and all your information you got from the compass, what pie chart matches your home Well, I can't do much about changing the structure of the house, nor can I move at the moment All of my excitement and enthusiasm drained out of me.
The author could have been a little more positive with remedies that were doable. Plus, I still found no answers to help me figure out how to remedy any element in any other rooms. I even went back to the beginning of the book, twice, rereading to see if maybe the answers were there. I felt more confused than ever. Maybe it's just me, but I did not find the answers I was looking for in this book. Not only that, I felt disappointed that the author wasn't more positive with helpful remedies.
I purchased this book to help me with a last minute Feng Shui project I was working on in school. This book was surprisingly detailed and thorough. As a complete "idiot" to feng shui, I was impressed with how invasive this art really was. I ended up keeping this book, and I still have it on my shelf. It's a great reference on redecorating your room. If you're like me, this is well worth a read. Delving into the actual mechanics and calculations of proper Feng Shui rather than just a collection of off-the-shelf "remedies" this is an easily accessible glimpse into the system.

This book takes you through history and shows how religion and science split and what has brought them back together. It also shows how different thought is in the West vs Eastern thinking. I love the part on Lo Shu Flying Stars and am grateful for the graphs that have already been done.
