good to know about. I probably would've avoided the title! I just

checked, and the one book I have is, " Clear Your Clutter With Feng

Shui " . It was being raved about on some other list a few months ago and

I haven't even cracked the cover.

I'll be looking for the Idiot's guide (I always wonder if they were

spying on me when they wrote those titles<G>)

thanks, Jim.

Sharon,

That book, Clear your clutter..... is the one my girlfriend bought that

got me interested in feng shui in the first place. I like it a lot. But

there are generalizations made in it that I can't reconcile now that I

have gone further into the art than that book does.

That book is great.... if your you want a best-case decision on your

home without actually studying feng shui.

But, the fellow who wrote the complete idiot's guide starts at the

basics and shows the reader step by step how to understand the

foundation pieces, from a western mindset-offset, so you understand the

structure, feng shui, that is built upon that foundation.

In the process, you learn about things like the tri-grams that make up

the hexograms of the I ching, so that now makes more sense. And so on,

and on with other things Chinese of which you may have heard. He has a

great sense of humor, too!

When you learn things this way, then they are yours, not something you

consult in a book.

Anything that sheds more light on the I Ching will be most welcome!

thanks, Jim.

I am really confused here... Feng Shui is about natural things, setting up

your environment to encourage the flow of energies...

Sometimes aromatherapy and essential oils is a part of it.

but what possible role would synthetic fo's play in it?
