Newsletters on feng shui : Although not book-related, maybe as numerous.
Feng shui books : What do you like?
Feng shui authors : Who are your favorites?

This is wonderful having members and what remains is starting to write and talk to each other about feng shui books, newsletters and authors. My first glimpse of feng shui was through a book by Lillian Too that I still own called Lillian Too's Chinese Wisdom. I had no clue what feng shui was at that point! The book was so beautiful and foreign to me and I felt it was important to get it. Books can be life-changers and this may or may not be that. I am not sure. We will have to wait and see!

So far, my favorite book on feng shui for practical use is Move Your Stuff by Karen Rauch Carter and for a historical understanding Lillian Too's Illustrated Encyclopedia of Feng Shui. But there are so many more out there!

Regarding The Living Earth Manual of Feng-Shui (Chinese Geomancy) by Stephen Skinner, I purchased this a month ago and have wanted to read it. It looks on the outside absolutely new but was printed in 1983 and more recently reprinted in a slightly longer version according to LibraryThing. Like many things feng shui it is somewhat technical and illustrative, so the book is an aid. Stephen Skinner titles the second chapter: Earth's blood : ch'i. More later.

I can't say enough nice things about 'Lighting the eye of the dragon : inner secrets of Taoist feng shui'
by Baolin Wu, Jessica Eckstein. It's one of the first feng shui books I read and still one of my favorites.
