ISBN: 1-57076-174-4 As New Condition

When we walk into a room for the first time, we often have an immediate reaction to its atmosphere. The natural energies created by our environment highly influence the way we feel. In Home Harmony, environmental designer Suzy Chiazzari tells you how to make your home a sanctuary for the mind, body and spirit by using the five elements - wood, metal, water, earth, and fire. Looking at each element in turn, she presents a practical guide to their forms and uses. Each element has particular shapes, colors and seasons associated with it, so the water element, for example, can be represented by glass or blue-violet colors, as well as by actual water features. Chaizzari shows how to introduce and use the elements within different settings, such as wood to help nurture family life, metal to focus the mind, or earth to bring stability. Inspiring, accessible, and drawing richly from the author's extensive knowledge of color therapy and holistic living, Home Harmony is your blueprint for a blissful, balanced home.

SAITO, Kosei.. TOTOH SAIJIKI: ILLUSTRATED ANNALS OF EDO FESTIVALS & ANNUAL EVENTS BY SEASONS..
Saito [1804-78], was an Edo author. The book was illustrated by Hasegawa Settan [1778-1843, and his son Settei [1819-82]. The father was a pupil of Toyokuni, particularly well known for this work as well as EDO MEISHO ZUE. The work is chrono- logically arranged to show every festival or event held in the Edo area. It is a lovely and most profusely illustra- ted record of the events, the people and the location where celebrated. This work covers a great breath and width, with such old classics as Hanami or spring cherry blossom view- ing, musical recitals, Daimyo processions, tug-of-war, chry- santhemum viewing, a wide variety of Buddhist and Shinto shrine celebrations, Sumo wrestling, Yoshiwara parade of the prostitutes, New Years, swords, scrolls and old book and a host of other festivals and celebrations. This also lists the whole year's celebrations in an index by dates. Many of these same festivals are still celebrated today in Tokyo. A throughly quaint resource, and joy to behold. The set has some minor and occasional old worming, thumb marks, faint marginal and cover stains, but all in all a good copy of a very SCARCE title. Cited in D.
