If you’re familiar with Asian and Chinese culture, you know that many homes in that beautiful country have wind chimes hanging from someplace outside – the porch, a doorway, or a window. Some believe that these were brought to the U.S. as part of feng shui; wind chimes were actually used before this of course, but the questions still remain: When employing the art and science of feng shui, how do use feng shui wind chimes in your own home? How are they introduced, and where should they be kept? And are there places where they should not be used as well?

When learning about the ancient art of feng shui, many people are interested in the real story behind it, in other words, true feng shui history and not just legend or hearsay. It’s a good idea to investigate this, because unfortunately, when feng shui tradition began to be introduced to the western culture, a lot of misconception and out-and-out untruths began to be mixed in with the real practice.

If you’re considering whether or not you can use the ancient art of feng shui for wealth building and fortune, there are some important factors that you may want to keep in mind before you begin this pursuit. Number one, what are you trying to accomplish when you assume that feng shui for wealth will work in your case? Are you experiencing specific financial setbacks right now and are assuming that these can be somehow “magically cured” with feng shui?
Also, when considering using feng shui for wealth, do you really understand what is required of you, the user and the person applying this principle? There is no ancient practice, ritual, art or science that can be applied that will somehow instantly provide you with money and wealth without expecting you to do your part, so to speak. Assuming that you can just somehow “petition” feng shui for wealth and it will magically arrive on your doorstep is not how things work.

And are there places where it should not be used as well?
