What are wind chimes for? To make noise you say? Not so fast!


For use in Feng Shui

For Feng Shui purposes, it is preferred to select wind chimes 
made of hollow tubes. This enhances the influence of Chi. There 
are many options for placing wind chimes around the home. You can
place them by a door or window to take advantage of an afternoon 
breeze. You can also place them in relatively darker sections of 
the home to enhance the Chi. You can even specifically select the
wind chimes for the element it represents i.e., tubes or clackers 
of metal, wood, or earth (clay), and place them strategically at 
certain locations.


Protecting Vulnerable Garden Areas

People frequently encourage wildlife to visit and live in their 
gardens. This is very natural, and helps keep us in tune with 
Mother Nature. Living in harmony with nature is the surest 
path to peace in your own lives. However, there will always be 
occasions and/or parts of the garden where we do not welcome 
the incursion of wild animals looking for a meal. For instance, 
when planting young seedlings, or when a crop of edible plants 
is getting close to harvest time. So we have to strike a balance 
between encouraging wildlife to visit as well as discouraging 
them at other times or from certain particular places. A safe 
and sane way to help discourage wildlife from entering certain 
areas is the use of wind chimes. Choose brushed aluminum or 
other tarnish-resistant, bright, shiny chimes. The flash of 
the sun off the wind chimes, and the sound can help protect 
vulnerable crops and areas of the garden.


Blocking the unwanted noises of daily life

The right set of wind chimes let you use the breeze like a 
stereo. A row of bamboo tubes, a copper wind bell or a swirl of 
bright brushed aluminum tubes can sound amazingly melodic. When 
the breeze begins, relax and enjoy. Wind chimes have matured 
from simple garden accessories that used to be a collection of 
glass or metal tied to a top piece, and the result usually was 
a mess. Nowadays, they are musically tuned, delicate reflections 
of the best in natures natural audio. Our daily lives are marred 
by daily incursions of images, scents, and sounds. Wind chimes 
give our ears something to concentrate on, both consciously and 
unconsciously, helping to block distant and unwanted sounds. 
For example, a school in the distance, nearby freeway, or other 
traffic noise. Choose the wind chime carefully, make sure you 
hear the level of sound your chime makes, and measure it against 
the backdrop you’re trying to mask. You’ll find it a pleasant way 
to bring a curtain of sound between yourself and the day-to-day 
world.
