Horse (The Chinese Horoscopes Library) by Kwok Man-ho
Comprehensive little book with good explanations.
Feng shui is the way of divining yin and yang in the landscape. It is founded on the belief that the hills and rivers have been and still are eroded by the forces of wind and water. The natural environment is alive with hidden forces. [12] This practice of divination was largely devoted to siting burial sites but is also used in planning palaces, business locations, and homes. Practical Confucianists frowned upon it.
Concise, elegant, informative; opens doors to more in-depth information.
Interesting and useful, though the mirror is quite silly.
