Product Description
Many books have been written on the subject of Flying Stars, a Classical Feng Shui sub-system popular amongst Feng Shui practitioners in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia. In Xuan Kong Flying Stars Feng Shui, the first book in the Xuan Kong Feng Shui series, renowned Chinese Metaphysics master trainer and consultant Joey Yap shows you how to apply Xuan Kong Flying Stars in the course of just eight chapters.

Many Flying Stars books are heavy on theory or are orientated on giving the reader the technical skills required to plot a Flying Stars chart. Some books advocate the use of objects as cures or do not focus on the skills needed to interpret a Flying Stars chart. Forms is also frequently ignored in many books on Flying Stars. Xuan Kong Feng Shui combines all the key technical and theoretical skills you need to have, with the all-important practical components of interpretation and application.

Xuan Kong Flying Stars Feng Shui is written in the easy-to-read style that has become the hallmark of Joey Yap books. Joey will share with you techniques and tips on not just how to inlock the potential of the Flying Stars in a property using methods and techniques, practiced in the field by professional Feng Shui consultants. Most importantly, Joey shows you how this can be done without the use of any symbolic objects or without the placement of 'good luck' cures.

With this book: Understand the key basic theories of Classical Feng Shui, Learn how to plot a Flying Stars chart and super-impose a Flying Stars chart onto any property (apartments, single storey houses, double storey houses), Learn how to apply Flying Stars in any period, in any property, to activate Wealth Luck and People Luck, Understand how Forms work with Flying Stars Feng Shui, practical tips and techniques on dealing with common problems like the #5 Yellow Star and how to unlock the Qi in auspicious stars.

Who Should Read This Book? This book is a beginners study into the arts and science of Xuan Kong Feng Shui, therefore is perfect for those who are want to delve into the Flying Stars method and be able to successfully conduct their own audits the proper way.

This book is a departure from Pop Feng Shui books since there is a clear focus on calculations based from age-old principles, therefore may serve as a welcome eye-opener to the uninitiated into the realm of Classical Feng Shui.

5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST book I have ever read on Flying Stars Feng Shui, September 11, 2007

By	L. Pheng "Bookworm" (Malaysia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is by far the best book I have ever read on Flying Stars Feng Shui. Joey Yap does an excellent job of breaking down this sophisticated art and making it both fun and easy to understand. I tried some of the techniques in the book already and have already seen some results. I never got this kind of success with other Feng Shui books. I have been studying Flying Stars Feng Shui for the last 3 years through books and websites. It is quite a difficult subject to learn and even harder to apply. Thank you Joey! I think I might just attend one of his seminars now.

Here are some of my favourite chapters:

Chapter 4 on Tools and Tricks of the Trade was insightful. It cleared up a lot of my questions on where to take a direction, which is the true facing of a property and more.

Chapter 6 on Understanding the Nine Stars was really good. I did not realise that the knowledge goes so deep.

Chapter 8 on the Practical Application of Xuan Kong Flying Stars helped tie everything together!

The illustrations are even better than his other books if that is possible. Not just eye candy, they helped illustrate the ideas in the book and kept me going to the last page.

This is his 5th book on Feng Shui. Joey Yap Stories and Lessons on Feng Shui and More Stories And Lessons on Feng Shui were great reads, filled with essays, thoughts and articles. Feng Shui For Homebuyers - Exterior and Feng Shui For Homebuyers - Interior were great "show and tell" for the beginner or casual reading. But Xuan Kong Flying Stars Feng Shui is his first serious, instructional manual. Very very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on Flying Star Feng Shui, October 4, 2007

By	Monica Stefanescu - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great book for anybody who wants to learn the Flying Stars method. This book makes the Flying Stars method look so easy! I wish I had this book few years back when I started to read & to understand Feng Shui methods, including the Flying Stars one. My study would have been so much easier & I would have not faced hours and hours of frustration!
The introduction, with some Feng Shui history facts, is great and very informative. It is fun to understand a little bit where Feng Shui comes from. I know that every Feng Shui book has a little bit of history in there, but this one is different. It goes much more deeper into the Feng Shui roots and I found this very interesting. Also, I like that the book makes it easy to understand how "to fly" the stars. Again, this took me quite a while to understand when I first started to study Feng Shui.
The other aspect of the book that I found very helpful was the Feng Shui of apartments. Not too many books talk about it and go into details on how to identify the Facing & Sitting direction of an apartment & how to correctly apply the Flying Stars method.
The book has lots of examples in it and they are very clearly explained. Again, this book makes the Flying Stars method look so simple and easy to understand. I can not wait to get the 2nd book in 2008. I have been trying for a while to find an easy way to understand the meaning of the numbering combinations (in other words, understand what the stars are trying to tell me & how to take advantage of the good combinations and how to weaken the effect of the bad ones) and I am sure that this book will make it easier for me. I just have to be patient until this more detailed book is released and really enjoy reading the book I have purchased now.
I highly recommend this book to everybody who wants to understand the Flying Stars method & who does not have the luxury to spend hours and hours studying it.

5.0 out of 5 stars amazing!, September 23, 2007

By	E. Ho (Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is amazing! It has brought my understanding of flying star feng shui to a whole new level. I've read several other books on the subject, but none were as descriptive or as systematic as this. If you were similarly as confused as I was on this subject in the beginning, you should definitely get this book!
