I'm sorry for the delayed reply. I'm not sure why this post didn't show up on my screen until today.
Anyway, I'm very enthusiastic about 'Move Your Stuff, Change Your Life' as a starting point for Black Hat Feng Shui. I have a link to that book on the main page of my Feng Shui section at BellaOnline.com
After that, I take an approach that may seem unorthodox: I use books by traditional (Compass School) Feng Shui experts such as Lillian Too and Karen Kingston. I also haul out old library copies of the out-of-print UK magazine, Feng Shui for Modern Living. (I ignore their scorn of Black Hat Feng Shui.) Then, I adapt their recommendations to the Black Hat version of the Bagua.
It may sound a bit odd to do that, but Black Hat Feng Shui books are often... Well, written in haste for the popular audience. They aren't necessarily well-grounded in theories that work. And, the authors may have a general design background, and they were assigned a Feng Shui book by their editors.
So, I start with the 'oldies but goodies' and modify what I read to fit with Black Hat Feng Shui.
I tried Compass School very seriously for two full years. I followed the Flying Stars recommendations, and so on. It worked, but not as well or as quickly as Black Hat Feng Shui. So, I went back to what I'd been doing with my version of Black Hat Feng Shui, and--bingo--it worked 'like magic' again.
One of these days, I'll write my own book. For now, I write my BellaOnline.com articles to 'translate' traditional Feng Shui into something that I can say with confidence, 'This will work for you.'
But, for further study, I recommend going back to the basics, and relying on the most highly-respected traditional Feng Shui authors.
