Twelve books · PDF · free, no sign-up
Two shelves. The first is English: four volumes assembled from essays already published on this site — cover, contents and page numbers added, the sales copy and contact details that trail the Chinese originals removed, the arguments left as they were. Together they run to 119 essays.
The second shelf is the source. Eight books by Lü Wenyi, some 4,400 pages in Chinese: feng shui, the four pillars, six-line divination, date selection, and a volume on adjusting a candidate's environment before an exam. They are lecture transcripts and subject collections, reproduced as printed. They are not translated.
Compiled from this site

Yin and yang, the five phases, the stems and the branches

Practising Feng Shui
Reading a house, a site, and a grave

Reading the Four Pillars
Bazi: the method, the cases, and the limits
Eighteen essays on the chart itself: how a day master is judged, how the useful god is chosen, and where the reading stops being an argument and starts being a guess.

Testing the Claim
Evidence, prediction theory, and the work of remedy
Thirty-three essays on the question a reader eventually asks: is any of this checkable? What a prediction claims, how a case is judged, and what an adjustment is supposed to change.

Six-Line Divination (2022)

Everything here is free to download and pass on. Please keep the source and credit it; do not sell it.
The English volumes have a clickable contents page and a PDF outline — open the sidebar in your reader and jump to any essay. The Chinese originals vary: two carry a full outline, the rest do not.
The eight originals are the author's own internally circulated material, marked free to give away and not to reprint. They are offered here unaltered. Course prices, phone numbers and enrolment notices inside them are part of the original and were left alone.
What you will find inside is a position argued from cases, not a finding. No reader is asked to accept it on authority — only to check it against something that can be gone and looked at.
