Windchime

A first century BC Chinese scientific experiment used tubes of different lengths (derived from the pentatonic musical scale) filled with ash to measure the changing chi of the seasons. As each type of seasonal chi reached maturity, during the course of the year, so the ash was expelled by it from one of the pipes. Hence tubes (of specific lengths) have been known to conduct chi for some considerable time, and so it is no surprise that they are used as remedies. The most commonly used tubular feng shui remedy is the windchime. These have the same qualities as the flute, but since they are made of multiple tubes, they are more effective. Windchimes are often used to regulate and slow down chi in positions like hallways. In more poetic feng shui texts, chi is personified as it it is seduced into stopping long enough to play with the windchimes before passing on its way, rather than rushing straight through. Either way, windchimes slow down chi. On the question of whether the tubes of the windchime should be solid or hollow, our advice is to use hollow windchimes, as they are more effective at producing metal chi than solid windchimes.

Windchime like bagua has been a fundamental countermeasure used in authentic Feng Shui for a long time. The advantage of a windchime is that it can be used internally to dissolve “shar chi”. It is unquestionably the most powerful enhancer and cure in many Feng Shui situations. It is potent enough to maneuver and enhance “chi” wherever it is placed. The reason is that passing breezes will stir the metal windchimes, thus keeping the metal activated from the passage of the chi through the tubes. It is significantly advantageous especially to those who do not want to spend too much money to modify your homes when encountering certain problematic feng shui situations. Properly designed windchimes by incorporating mantras and sacred symbols do not invite ghost, but instead they will chase away evil spirits.

This windchime can be used to cure many bad situations:

1. Display it where malevolent energy exists as a result of bad flying stars, even the most complicated combinations where other cures are insufficient.
2. Display it at intended areas to counter any “shar chi” due to rushing energy. Examples of rushing energy situations are such as stairs facing your maindoor, long pathway leading to a door, two doors facing each other, a window facing a door etc. It will slow down rushing “chi”. Besides, it is also used to welcome in positive energy.
3. Display at the main entrance to ward off evil spirits and harmful forces and killing breathe.
4. Display in location where killing forces are found, display it facing the killing forces such as straight narrow path directly coming towards you, bad energy coming from construction sites, graveyard etc.
5. Display in the sector where the Natal or Annual Illness Star #2 flies into.
6. Display in the sector where the Natal or Annual Fatal Yellow Star #5 flies into.
7. Display this windchime to counter shar chi due to rushing energy such following the sketches below. The windchime will slow down rushing chi. Besides, it is also used to welcome in positive energy through chi entry points such as the doors and windows.

Note: Please do not hang a windchime directly above where you sleep, sit, eat, work or stand. Your energy will be suppressed. In the event that there is space constraint, you may hang the windchime lower than waist level.

What Windchime symbolizes?
Windchimes like baguas is a fundamental tool used in authentic Feng Shui. The advantage of a windchime is it can be use internally to dissolve shar chi. Windchimes are unquestionably the most powerful enhancer and cure for many Feng Shui situations. Windchimes are potent enough to maneuver and enhance chi wherever it is placed. They make a significant presence especially for those who do not want to spend too much money to modify buildings and large structures due to bad Feng Shui. Properly designed windchimes according to the rules of the nature do not invite ghost, but instead will chase away evil spirits due to its strong metal energy.

The proper design of windchime is important to ensure stimulation of good chi. Windchimes are made with 5, 6 or 8 rods, with each number representing hidden meanings.

1. 5 rods represents EARTH and attracts excellent chi and prosperity from 5 cardinal directions, namely North, South, East, West and Center.
2. 6 rods represents the “chien hexagram” from the studies of I-ching which carries the meaning BIG METAL and luck from heaven. Such a hexagram exerts the strongest form of metal energy which is required to counter problematic earth energy from flying stars #2 and #5.
3. 8 rods represents PROSPERITY BLESSINGS (fatt) and is the most popularly wanted number by Chinese.

As an important rule of thumb, 5 & 6 rods are best to suppress bad luck and bad chi (curing purpose), while 6 & 8 rods are best to attract good luck (enhancement purpose). The 6-rods are also excellent cure for bad flying stars for those who practise Xuan Kong Flying Star Feng Shui.

Next, the rods should be designed according to Feng Shui principles, they must be hollow to stimulate flow of chi through it and to produce proper melody with sound enhancement. The safest is to adopt windchime designs that are truly designed to feng shui principles. Some old fashioned chinese windchimes are usually added with fortune-bringing-bells and pagoda. Bells create strong tones and melody to attact money. Meanwhile, pagodas are powerful symbols to ward off evil spirits and also increase scholastic luck. Actually different number of tiers also represent different meanings for the pagoda:

1. 5-tiers Pagoda represents complete representation of the five elements, ie Metal, wood, water, fire and earth. It also represents the guardian of 5 directions by emperors. This leads to overall improvement of fortune and good luck, while overpowering or subduing bad luck coming from all the 5 directions.
2. 7-tiers Pagoda signifies seven treasures of Buddhism. It accumulates benevolance. It is also said to symbolize blessing from seven northern stars which brings ultimate wealth luck and career luck.
3. 9-tiers bring completeness and brings nobility, strength, good career, wealth and study luck. It also possess power to suppress bad luck and instability.

In terms of materials, if the purpose is to enhance luck, one can choose windchimes that are made from the element which is similar to the element of the direction they wish to enhance. For example, enhancement in West, Northwest and North must have the windchime made by metal (Copper, Aluminium, Brass or Stainless Steel rods). Next, windchimes made of bamboo and wood are good as enhancers in East, Southeast and South, while windchimes made from glass/clay can be used in Southwest and Northeast. However, windchimes are normally used as cure or remedy for tough situations in feng shui and seldom for enhancement. And in generally, you should not be worried to use metal windchime in any direction as the significance of the presence of a metal windchime overides element clashes in any directions.

Acting as an alternative to bagua, 5 and 6 rods metal windchimes can also diffuse killing chi (poison arrows) from T-junction, lamp post, straight pole, tree and oppressing large building too close for comfort directly in front of your house. 5 and 6 rods metal windchimes can also remedy killing chi (poison arrows) coming from sharp angles, corners of buildings and roof ridges of your neighbours pointing at your front doors.
