Koi are multi-colored varieties of the common carp fish. Most koi are kept in water gardens for ornamental purposes and vary in size up to 4 feet in length and 35 pounds. Many species of koi are highly colored and patterned; major colors are red, orange, gold, cream, black, white, yellow and blue. As koi are large fish, they require a large pool or pond of about 500-1000 gallons of water per koi it contains. Koi are very hardy fish and can live over 100 years in beneficial conditions. They're generally omnivorous bottom feeders who eat a large variety of food.
Koi are strong enough to swim upstream, a trait at the heart of the symbolism they embody for prosperity, good fortune, success generally, ambition, courage, perseverance and longevity. A Chinese legend tells of a koi who swam upstream through many obstacles finally including a waterfall which it also successfully climbed. As a reward for its efforts once it reached the top, it became a dragon, which is among the most auspicious mythological creatures, symbolizing power and strength (and not a little magic!).
There are 8 koi on the cover (7 on the front and 1 on the back makes 8). The number 8 symbolizes wealth and prosperity, a wonderful message to contemplate (and for your subconscious!) every time you consult your planner or use your notebook. Because of all their positive energy and symbolism, koi are a favorite Feng Shui cure. Buy several for the Wealth area of your home or office!
