Watch the Penn & Teller "Bullsh#t" on Feng Shui.
They bring 3 "experts" in to Feng Shui a house, each of the frauds gives a diffrent answer. Their off camera comments are hilarious ( one guy " the place still looks like sh#t). And they all basically are selling expensive furniture and doodads. It was a riot.
Feng Shui consultants are the snakeoil salesman, frauds all of them.
I was thinking the same thing. Feng shui, as practiced in the US, is a con job at best.
I've seen ancient Chinese gardens that were supposed to be influenced by feng shui. The are very beautiful but I highly doubt that there was any other affect that simple beauty. As for increases in fortune and luck, I think the ruler's brutal army had more to do with that.
