Koi Fish Paintings plays an important role in the World of Feng Shui. Feng Shui is the art of creating a healthy balance of our lives and environment. In Chinese “Feng” is Wind and “Shui” is Water. These are the two natural elements that flows and circulates freely on earth, creating a Life Energy known as ‘Chi’ that shapes our living environment.

The ‘Chi’ energy can be found in various forms identified as “5 elements” i.e. Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth.

These five elements work together to establish a healthy flow of ‘Chi’ through space which brings balance and harmony to the environment, whether it is your Home, Office, Restaurants or Hotels.

There are many symbols used in Feng Shui. Fishes are one of them. Koi Fish Paintings have been depicted in Feng Shui Paintings throughout the centuries.

A very common place where you may find Koi Fish Paintings are in Chinese Restaurants. The next time you are dining in one, keep an eye on the wall paintings or decor.  You can most certainly find some kind of Koi fish decor. Having Koi Fish Paintings in restaurants brings abundance in wealth.

 

Nishikigoi

The origins of Koi fishes can be traced back to  the 1800s in a place called Niigata in Japan. Koi is short for the Japanese name for Nishikigoi. And the Koi fishes are the descendants of the common Carp.

Through centuries of selective breeding, the Koi fishes has transform into beautiful elegant fishes. Koi fishes are also known as living jewels of the pond. My Koi Fish Paintings attempts to capture these alluring Koi fishes in their graceful nature. With their vibrant colors and graceful motions, the Koi fishes makes excellent Koi Fish Paintings.

Each Koi Fish Painting has its own meaning and significance. And each painting relates to a different Feng Shui purpose.

Having the right Koi Fish Paintings may help to harness good flowing ‘Chi’ and Feng Shui to your homes, offices or hotels thus attracting wealth and success.

For example, a 2 Koi Fish Painting represents Harmony, Love, Happiness and Peacefulness in your Home. And an 18 Koi Fish Painting represents good Fortune and Abundance in Wealth. These are great for Restaurants, Offices, Homes and Hotels Feng Shui.

 

Dragon’s Gate

According to Chinese legends, there once were 9 Koi fishes, swimming upstream in the Yellow River heading towards the Dragon’s Gate.

To get to the Dragon’s Gate, they had to endure lots of hardships and struggles. Along the way, they had to swim against strong currents and rapids to get upstream.

Finally, when they reach their destination, the last hurdle was to jump over the Dragon’s Gate. A feat that is almost impossible to achieve. With pure determination and tenacity, all the Koi fishes succeeded in jumping over the Dragon’s Gate, and they were all transformed into magnificent Celestial Dragons.

 

Determination and Success

Thus, the Koi fishes becomes a symbol of determination and success. They teach us to develop a “Positive” attitude. In times of adversities, keep looking ahead and walk towards the sun and you will never see the dark part of your shadow.

Hard work and determination will carry you through and with a little luck on your side, eventually you too, will reach your destination…
     … Your very own Dragon’s Gate!
