I just received a Feng Shui interior design book as a thoughtful gesture of kindness .... upon reading it I found that many of the concepts were similar to the "Diamond" concept and many were completely contradictory. The contradictions were in very important areas, such as: determining the Fortune Elements; the significance of the 8 directions; determining cures or activations; the use of symbols/colors; and trigrams/hexagrams. Since Feng Shui is a Taoist based philosophy - how can the styles be so different? How can I explain how one type of Fung Shui is better than other without insulting the gift I was just given? How can I justify the Diamond theory when talking with other Feng Shui experts?
