RE: [GO] Feng Shui and books
The true reason is slightly more prosaic - as every good librarian knows, if you line the books up at the front of the shelves then you don't have to dust there!

[GO] Feng Shui and books
Another thing about books and Feng Shui is that the space on a shelf, at the edge, can be considered a knife...not a good thing thing in Feng Shui. To help to manage that energy, books should be lined flush with the edge of a shelf, not pushed back on the shelf with space between the edge of the shelf and the books. That explanation about the stagnant energy from books sort of makes sense, but I won't part with my books, and don't really have time to do much reading. So I will have to regard them as sources of the energy that will fuel many flights of fancy to worlds of the imagination, created by many different writers...when the day arrives that I can go to all of those places! Right now I am so overwhelmed by my life that I wish I COULD read more, just to escape. -- Girlsown mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] For self-administration and access to archives see http://home.it.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/girlsown For FAQs see http://www.club-web.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/girlsown/faq-0.htm
[GO] Feng Shui and Books
Sorry to anyone who's already come across this. This was posted to another list I am on, and I thought it was highly appropriate to pass on to GO. >>FENG SHUI TIP #280: One of the most common sources of stagnant chi in an environment is an item many people can hardly bear to part with: BOOKS. Books often take up quite a bit more space energetically than their small physical size might indicate -- packed as they are with stories, wisdom,innovation and emotion. Like other concentrated forms of energy (such as money, blood or oxygen) books can be tremendously life-giving when they are in circulation and serving a purpose. When circulation becomes blocked, serious problems can ensue. >From time to time, it's useful to take a tour of the books in your home and office: Are there any books that have not been used or touched in quite some time? Books you've never even read, and probably never will? Are there books on your shelves that are intrinsically connected to thought patterns and emotions you have long since left behind?<<< Kate D, (now thinking I have serious problems with stagnant chi!) -- Girlsown mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] For self-administration and access to archives see http://home.it.net.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/girlsown For FAQs see http://www.club-web.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/girlsown/faq-0.htm
