Feng-Shui
The Ancient Wisdom of Harmonious Living for Modern Times
by Eva Wong
Feng-Shui—by Eva Wong


 

Here is a complete, in-depth course in the traditional Chinese art of harmonious design-including instructions for making your own geomantic compass for feng-shui readings.

The ancient art of feng-shui has guided the Chinese people for thousands of years in designing cities, building homes, and burying the dead. Deeply rooted in Taoist and shamanic origins, it is not simply a list of directives for building auspicious structures or arranging interiors for good luck-it is the art of reading the patterns of the universe and living in harmony with the environment. Today, as people become aware of the need to recover and intimate relationship with the earth and the ecosphere, feng-shui offers a set of pragmatics in choosing a home, locating a business, developing ecologically sensitive land use, and planning a harmonious neighborhood.

Specifics
 

Eva Wong offers comprehensive instructions in the basics of feng-shui, with step-by-step guidance in analyzing sites, buildings, and interiors. Readers are given a glimpse into the history of feng-shui from prehistoric to modern times through stories of shamans, magicians, Taoist mystics, and scholars. They are introduced to the theoretical foundations of feng-shui as they learn about Taoist cosmology, the Chinese calendar, and the pa-k'ua, or eight-trigrams diagram. They will learn how to make and read a geomantic compass, a device from the tenth century that is still in use today. They will also be drawn into a world where nature is sentient and animated by energies. With the completion of the curriculum, readers will have a working knowledge of how to life harmoniously with these energies of the earth and environment.

Eva Wong's interest in feng-shui dates from her childhood in Hong Kong. She was apprenticed to a feng-shui master-her granduncle-around the age of fifteen. A practitioner of the Taoist arts and a translator of Taoist texts, she now lives in Colorado.
