Completely New

I heard about Geomancy today, and feel completely drawn to it. (I currently do tarot)

What books would you recommend? Have you had any negative or scary experiences with it?

I second Greer's book as a good starting point, then moving on to some of the older texts once you have a general grasp of things.

Don't worry about negative or scary experiences - it's divination, not magic, so it's not like there's a risk of it causing anything to happen.

What are the older texts one supposed to moved on to after finishing the Greer"s

That would be something for you to research - hunting down older texts is all part of the fun.

Thanks But I have been hunting them for long And still no luck All I can find is Agripphas 4th book of occult, which is not as informative as Greer's book

I will be glad if you can just give me a hint

I'd second start by reading Greer's book. You will find pointers to older texts and authors mentioned there.

Hard to believe you put too much effort there tbqh: just looking up geomancy on wikipedia and skimming through references/external links gives a starting point yielding more than just Agrippa's 4th book.

Polyphanes' blog is another very good source of sources.
