Sun and the Serpent is a book written by C. F. Oldham that explores the ancient practice of feng shui, a Chinese system of geomancy that seeks to harmonize individuals with their environment. The book delves into the symbolism and mythology of feng shui, as well as its practical applications in architecture, interior design, and landscaping. Oldham also discusses the historical and cultural context of feng shui, tracing its development from ancient China to its modern-day popularity in the West. The book is richly illustrated with diagrams, photographs, and examples of feng shui in action, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in this fascinating and complex practice.1905. A contribution to the history of serpent worship. This work is based upon papers read before the Royal Asiatic Society in 1901. It relates that serpent worship did not originate in India, but has been a branch of the worship of the Sun and Serpent, once a universal form of worship. Therefore, the history takes the reader beyond the Indian cult to other countries to explain the nature and origin of serpent worship. Most of the illustrations are from photographs taken by the author.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
