Book Description

September 8, 2002 For Beginners (Llewellyn's)

When you live in harmony with the universe, good things naturally flow your way. Feng Shui for Beginners offers simple techniques for attracting the powerful energy known as ch’i into your home and workplace.

By simply rearranging your furniture, hanging wind chimes outside your door, or placing a vase filled with flowers in your bedroom, you can improve your life in a variety of ways: create a more peaceful home, enhance your creativity, even find true love. You’ll learn how to use feng shui to get rid of shars in your environment—straight lines and sharp angles that produce bad luck. And you can even predict the future with the “Flying Star” technique.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

When I walk out my door, I'm only a few dozen yards from a beautiful lake. (Of course, that's not uncommon here in Minnesota, the land of 10,000 lakes!) When I walk by the lake I feel different; more centered and balanced. Perhaps you've noticed something similar when you are near a lake, stream, or ocean. Today science tells us this is due to negative ions. But the effect of the environment on buildings and life has been studied in the Orient for thousands of years. Donald Trump uses the methods of this science, feng shui – shouldn't you? Now you can with Feng Shui for Beginners.
A large part of feng shui involves the design of buildings so they are in harmony with the landscape and at the best direction and shape to ensure the free flow of energy (ch'i). Here you'll learn about the two major traditions schools of this science, the Form School and the Compass School. As a special, free offer, every purchaser of this book can get a transparent compass to put over any floor plan to determine the best design for the free flow of ch'i so you can have better health, more prosperity and greater happiness.
When I purchased my home, it was already built. So my favorite part of this book is all the information on how you can correct blocked ch'i or "bad" ch'i. According to author Richard Webster, things like pets, mirrors, aquariums, and large objects can help the good ch'i flow. That's why I have all of these things in my home. These simple items bring comfort and make me feel better.
Does it work? Is it all subjective? All I can say is that it works for me. It works for Donald Trump. It works for millions of people all over the world. It can work for you, too!

5.0 out of 5 stars THE best book I've have ever read for the novice., June 26, 1999

This review is from: Feng Shui For Beginners: Successful Living by Design (For Beginners (Llewellyn's)) (Paperback)
An absolutely wonderful book full of useful information. The author has put together an easily read text with practical advice. Not confusing like most feng shui books. It is THE best beginner's book on this subject that I have found. Once you have assimilated the basics, then you can go on to the more detailed tomes.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Overview of Geomancy and the Art of Placement, June 27, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Feng Shui For Beginners: Successful Living by Design (For Beginners (Llewellyn's)) (Paperback)
This was the first Feng Shui book that I read, and it was an excellent place to start. The author explains the subject concisely but thoroughly and gives one enough knowledge to begin clearing one's home or office. Just a few changes of placment in my home, and my life improved dramatically. Coincidence? Could be...but I don't care! :) I recommend this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's ok, May 10, 1999
This review is from: Feng Shui For Beginners: Successful Living by Design (For Beginners (Llewellyn's)) (Paperback)
This book was ok as an introduction to Feng Shui, but it really leaves couples that don't share compatible birth stars hanging. I highly recommend Feng Shui Step by Step by T. Raphael Simons for a much more in depth book that is also more helpful for couples and families.
