Author Clear Englebert draws from his own experience as a feng shui consultant to walk you through your home (and yard, and workplace, and even the car) with a consultant's eye. You will learn to observe how chi (Universal Energy) flows in and around your home--where it is vibrant, where it stagnates, and where it picks up a negative charge. The book is a practical how-to guide rich with specific advice, including evocative explanations of the symbolic thought underlying feng shui concepts. The emphasis is on those concepts most accessible to the Western mind, and on those solutions most available to the modern reader.

Occult literature desk

Englebert provides a remarkably clear pathway to understanding Feng Shui, making the ancient art accessible to beginners. The focus on renters is a standout feature, offering practical advice for those unable to alter their architecture. However, this book does not suit practitioners seeking rigorous classical Chinese metaphysics or historical depth. It lacks scholarly citation and complex theoretical frameworks, prioritizing simplicity over academic precision. Readers expecting deep philosophical discourse may find the content superficial. It is best viewed as a practical toolkit for immediate environmental adjustment rather than a comprehensive treatise on Eastern philosophy.
