 Feng shui, or geomancy in English, is becoming more and more popular in America. The Chinese consider
feng shui old news, but to Americans, it's something brand-new. Store and home owners are consulting feng
shui masters for advice.
    How did this ancient Chinese tradition make its way across the seas? The answer is quite simple. Chinese
businessmen have been building high rises in America. They deem it necessary to rely on feng shui experts,
just as they would at home. More and more wealthy Americans are beginning to believe in geomancy. They say
that geomancers in New York make US$250 an hour! In view of this, we can foresee a bright future for geomancy
in America.
