Good Stuff Happens in 1:1 Meetings: Why you need them and how to do them well
Windchimes Meant For Good Fortune
1. Windchimes are meant to bring good luck. They are often
hung near places of religious importance including
temples, shrines and grottos, often in great numbers. The
Chinese were the first to cast bronze wind bells (the
precursuer to today's windchimes) or (feng ling) around
1000 B.C. Over the centuries, windchimes slowly acquired
religious value, becoming intertwined with the Chinese
cultural traditions of Buddhism, Confucianism and Feng
Shui. In the realm of Feng Shui, individuals try to arrange
their physical environment to create an environment
conducive to overall health, happiness and also success.
The goal being to allow the winds of good fortune or "Chi"
to flow easily through their house or company.
Windchimes can impact how Chi flows through a space.
2. Windchimes help to slow positive energy as it approaches
a building, inviting it inside. For people in the north, west
and northwest location a metal windchime is
recommended while those who are in the east, south and
southeast location will gain most from a chime made from
bamboo or wood. The sort of luck a person wants to
attract to their home or business can be controlled by the
number of rods on the chime. In order to eliminate bad
luck five solid metal rods should be utilized. The total
number of rods required on a windchime to bring in good
fortune is considered to be four, six, seven, eight or 18.
3. They are preferably hung from where the air can flow
freely - by the door, on the windowsill, in the pathway of
the patio or even in the garden on the branches of a tree.
You have to strategically hang your chimes in areas where
when the wind blows through them they can unleash their
delightful melody. With the sound of water flowing from a
fountain, these chimes can give you the gentle sound of
harmony that truly has a therapeutic effect on any
individual.
4. The majority of windchimes are made from durable and
lightweight metal. Their tubes are either made of
aluminum, brass, pewter, copper, glass and bamboo. They
are available in different designs and sizes all of which you
can discover online.
5. When it comes to windchimes, know that there are many
of types available out there for you. This is why it would
not be good for you to just go about for whatever you can
discover there. Instead, it would be more helpful for you
to look into the options that you have first. For one,
understand that the different types of windchimes
available these days really boast of quality and of course
of beauty. This has become every home's accent
nowadays because of the type of sound that it brings.
Other than this, it does well in complimenting the style of
every type of household to be found. Chimes may be
utilized to monitor changes in the directions of wind. For
example, if a chime is positioned on the north side of the
house only a north wind will make it move. It may alert
the residents to a change in weather.
