"the [...] cosmic order... is characterized by such words as (lifetimes), (fate), (luck), (astrological power), (supernatural powers and spirits). (karma, action in previous lifetimes), (heaven and hell)... According to [...] cosmology, what happens to us in the present life - which is within the continuum of lifetimes - is determined not only by our actions in previous lives but also by external powers and supernatural forces which are beyond human being's control."

The geomancer knows about such forces and external powers, and tries to inform his clients about auspicious days for important events, which spirits need to be appeased, or prayed to, or banished. He knows lucky numbers, and will often read fortunes and even palms. He may also perform ceremonies for the blessing of houses and other important buildings. Occasionally he may even channel spirits, but this is usually left to a shaman.

Yes, it shares many things in common with feng shui, but for a different culture. (i.e. not Chinese)
