On a small but very significant level you can bring wind over water chi into your life quite easily. Putting a small pond in your yard is really quite simple. The basic steps are:
- Dig a hole
- Put a rubber or other waterproof liner in it
- Add a few fish and pond plants (in pots)
- Have a nice place to sit next to it
- Add a water circulator with perhaps a waterfall
- Enjoy!
The total cost for a 5' x 8' pond can be as low as 100 US$ or even less. It will take a day or two of digging to make a 3' x 5' pond. The mound of earth can be part of a mini-waterfall or stream, adding a pump to recirculate water. Plant the mound with flowers and create a rock stream bed where the water will flow. Lining the rock stream bed with scraps of rubber pond liner will prevent erosion. If your pond site is away from your house and running power to it would be a problem, there are solar powered pumps available which will work well as long as the site has direct sunlight.
Some garden supply stores sell pond liner. Check the phone directory under ponds. Additionally there are on-line sources but the liner is heavy so shipping is expensive.
Fish are necessary to eliminate mosquito larvae. The fish need not be a special type. Small goldfish are hearty and don't need to be fed as they eat insects which fall in the pond. If your pond is deep enough so that it does not freeze solid, the fish may be able to winter in a state of hibernation.
Pond plants provide a place for the fish to hide and rocks also serve this function. Fish that have a nice protected home are more relaxed, swim around more and are more pleasant to watch. If your pond has rocks that protrude slightly from the water, birds will enjoy visiting, drinking and taking a bath. Dragon flies and even water striders may magically appear! A bench or rounds of firewood provide a nice place to sit and relax.
Why do a pond when winter is coming??
- Many pond suppliers will give you a discount on anything in stock, especially beautiful plants like water lilies..
- When spring comes your pond is there for you - no work required!
- You may have more time now, especially if you will garden in the spring
If you put in a pond, small or large, please write and share your experience, including a picture or two.
Indoor Fountains
You can certainly have a fountain indoors. Many are available. Make sure yours has a sound that you find pleasurable. Some splatter a bit so it is best placed where water will not harm anything. Take care of your fountain; add water as needed and wash it thoroughly every few weeks to remove scum. If you are in an area with high mineral content in the water, add a bit of lemon juice to help prevent mineral buildup.

Some clients' comments:
"Companioned with
sunlit water
The crystal has opened
new vistas to health"
SS (84 years wise)
"The beginning for me was watching my friend since she got her first Life
Chi Crystal. As I watched her change, I became curious about crystals in
general and these crystals in particular. When I heard you were coming to
town I became interested in seeing the Crystals, and when you were here
I got a few. I started wearing one immediately. I call it my pocket pal.
The words which express what happened to me are that I feel like I am on
that super fast Japanese bullet train, the good in my life has accelerated.
I am having more clarity and more strength of purpose and more not only
belief in myself, but belief in Spirit and recognizing the support of Spirit.
Another thing is it has opened up many new vistas and opportunities like I
quite my job as a receptionist and have a new focus for my life which is
to keep opening to my own deepest purpose. As a part of that many
opportunities have opened up such as I have started teaching, and developing
seminars, am working on my own small business plan and am more in touch with
Spirit. The other part is all about being grateful. I guess what has happened
is it has livened up my heart. My heart feels warmer, more protected, freely
giving and energized. I am believing in big possibilities for myself. I am
open more to planetary vision."
Dannelle of Serene Solutions in California
"The crystal you gave me for my water has
helped so much just by changing the taste and it seems to quench my thirst
better. Being I'm drinking 3-4 liters of water per day it helps to know
it's working with my own chi and realigning the mineral components in the
water."
Heidi Perry
"There has been a quickening
in my life since I got my Crystal. It has supported me. I am
enjoying being with myself more than ever. My health has improved.
My life has become a greater adventure than ever before."
AF
"I've been dowsing, or attempting to, with the pendulum for about 15
years, but always got confused before, so it was an on-and-off thing, mostly off.
After we got the special crystal I just felt like getting out the pendulum, (praying
for guidance from Christ, my higher self, and my guardian angel), and asking about
some questions I've had about diet. It worked well, much better than ever before for
me, with answers that were consistent and helpful. I've kept on using the pendulum
to choose each meal, and supplements and amounts. Then some urgent health issues
came up and the guidance-via-pendulum helped me through those. And yesterday I used
it to successfully fend off an impending migraine by using the guidance which said
to take extraordinary doses of an herb tea that I normally use in small amounts. It
worked! No migraine. (This is major, because for me a migraine is total body misery
and it pretty much stops all activity beyond mere survival.)"
Linda from Mt. Shasta, CA
"Life Chi Crystals are
synergistically sound and deeply profound. My home office is a
sanctuary thanks to these creations."
I.A.H. in Mexico
...we were having some problems getting things to flow: funding was short, employees weren't working out, paper work was backing up... In the past year, our organizations problems seem to have melted away. We have enough funding to put some reserve away for a rainy day. We were able to remodel the library and buy hundreds of new books because we received a big grant last February (just after the crystals arrived). We heave even been able to increase staff hours and start some interesting new programs this year. How Life Chi Feng Shui works is mysterious to me, but I can tell you that I will not be moving those crystals soon. they are doing their job so we can do ours.
