We frequently chat about this and Feng Shui also considers water as true wealth as it consolidates energy on the face of the earth.

In Feng Shui, according to the Ba-Gua or the compass direction, there is a possibility of a loss related to that particular corner, where water leakages are found. Considering its value and importance for the existence of life on earth, it would be an excellent idea to take the first appropriate step, that of stopping all leakages in our house or office. Simple cure is replacing the washer in some cases; changing the valve will do the trick.

Even when we apply this principle to our very own way of life, we apprehend that we are talking about Lakshmi the goddess of wealth. In daily practice we think of the eight aspects of this great goddess as ‘Astha Lakshmi ‘ it includes Aishwarya Lakshmi, Vijaya Lakshmi, Santan Lakshmi, and Maha Lakshmi. These are the 8 main facts of human life and if you let it skid through your fingers, you are in fact watching prosperity walk away from your life!

Just as leakage has a negative effect on our wealth, blockages of pipes due to scaling or some accumulation of mud is equally disastrous. Such blockages diminish the free flow of water and in fact are hindered the flow of income. It is likely that your profits or dues get stuck.

Sometimes, due to rearrangement of taps etc, a particular tap is removed and that passage is blocked with either a metal or a wood stopper. It spells the stoppage of your profits. Pipes and taps are intended to be in good working condition. These few mistakes could be set right to that your wealth is not adversely affected.

I have a bar that divides my living room from my kitchen area.  Due to some problems we were unable to repair at the time, and laziness, would placing a water fountain on the bar beside a huge Ivy correct this problem?  This bar is to the right on anyone who walks in the front door.  

Thanks in advanced,

I'm still waking up...
The above said bar has a sink in it.  We disconnected it.  This is what I was asking about, the water being stopped off.

No matter what the situation is.  Just stop the leak first (no leak in wealth).  Then fix the bar when you have time (wait until your wealth fills back up).

You know, I was wondering.  We are having to replace our well pipes as they are rusted out and causing a considerably huge, loss in pressure to our home.  Its been building up for well over a year now. (No pun intended)
Would this be along the same principle?  The pipes loosing water due to the rusted out holes & falling back into the well? We have had some major financial problems during this time.  

Hummm  
Something to think about, that's for sure.

Thanks!
