bepgof 20 Report post Posted August 9, 2010 put windchimes outside for what purpose? cos i saw indian neighbor put it outside their main door. Some schools of fs believed windchimes can break negative qi or negative energies. I'm always more interested on "how", yet to find the answer. However, windchime was originated from India, to China, Japan & Korea....., aim to gain peace/concentration in mind power, in temples. Some Chinese "modified" the "wind" to "rope" become ropechimes. Putting these acorss beams & pilars of building, linked by rope, to deter theft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bepgof 20 Report post Posted September 5, 2010 (edited) what about those 6 metal rod? any significance? Wind chimes whether in rods (form in a round-shaped with uniform length or different length), or rods (of different length) in straight line layout, or bell-shaped, or many other shapes, can be made of metal, ceramic, wood, glass,....having same function = produce some "sound" when there is movement of air causing pendulum hitting the rods or bell. The sound produced, following the air pressure difference, has a "smoothening" effect to human's mood/mind, in particular when the ambient is quite. However, when in party time( house with many ppl), windchime becomes a "nuisance". Windchimes with rods, produce sound stay "longer" time as compared to bell type. The longer and heavier, the "longer" sound will stay, as well as its amplitude (louder). Bell produces mono-tune, different bells will have different tune. Mono tune is "boring". 4-6 tunes are "just nice" to human mind, too many tunes of different frequencies become "noise". High pitches (esp bell, glass) with short duration tend to "break/disturb" one's thought, meaning when you're doing "planning" where need serious and fine though, no high pitch sound please. Windchimes are supposed to be hung at locations where having most air exchange (most air pressure difference), like windows or/and doors, or mid-way of passage way with constant air flow, so to "ignit" windchimes' function to its fullest. Not all ppl like windchimes, just try and choose the one suit your mind/ear best. Personally, I prefer stable and "longer sound" produced by long rods.

The shops you went are probably selling fengshui items. Most of the time, when someone wanted to buy a windchime for fengshu purpose, most of the time, the 6 rods one and in gold color are recommended. Maybe the shop owner never heard of 4 rods windchime for fengshui purpose that why they don't carry. Edited May 28, 2011 by FlyingKnight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
