What is the observable qualities of Qi?

Qi is flowing.

Its not known whether Qi can flow outside human bodies,  or between human bodies,  but it is sure circulating within the body.

And you can guide the Qi to strengthen your spirit.

One important quality about Qi is that it can be  easily guided by imagination.  And anyone could do it.

You tell it go and it goes.

The following is my experience:

First, imagine that the Qi is concentrated in your Dantian,  or Stomach if you like. You can imagine one flow of Qi emerging from your Dantian, exiting through the Anus then upward passing in front of your front body, going through your navel, then through your throat to your lower lip and teeth.

Then, imagine another flow of Qi, moving from your Dantian, exits from Anus,  toward the back of your body, passing through your back, the back of your neck, the top of your head, your forehead, the tip of your nose, and reached your upper lip and teeth.

These two flows of Qi—one in front and one behind—are best when they occur simultaneously, not sequentially. Then, the two flows meet in your mouth, mainly where your teeth meet. If you click your teeth, these two flows of Qi connect. Of course, you shouldn’t just  click your teeth once or twice; you need to do it continuously, guiding the Qi from your teeth to your head.

Then you can guide the Qi upward, passing through your eyes, rotating around your head, down your neck, back into your torso. Then, it moves into your waist and abdomen, pauses slightly in your Dantian, and then exits, passing through your thighs, calves, and soles of your feet, entering the ground and leaving.

What has been described might seem like something only a master who has practiced for years can do, but actually it’s not. The most wonderful aspect of the human body’s design is that: Qi can be moved using imagination. When you think it, the Qi will move accordingly.

What is the use of moving the Qi  like this?

It raises,  it stimulates,  it heals.

You'll be refreshed.

Because it connects  Rèn Mài 任脈 and Dū Mài 督脈 through clicking teeth.  And  it is not in ordinary medicine books.  It is found by my own personal experience.

*任脈 (Rèn Mài) is translated as Conception Vessel or Ren Mai.

督脈 (Dū Mài) is translated as Governing Vessel or Du Mai.

These are two extraordinary meridians.

A Ten-step Exercise

1+2       Front Qi and back Qi moves upwards at the same time.

3.   Clicking teeth where the two Qi meet.   Then the Qi enters the head through mouth. 

4    Qi goes upwards.  passing through the eyes 

5     Qi turns around head and going down. 

6-9  Qi going downward 

10    Qi exits to the ground

The above is a  Ten-step exercise I do every day.

Important is in the no.3

and no.4 steps.

It is where the Qi connects and enters.

And it is very interesting that when you move the Qi with your imagination, it seems nothing happened.  You will not be trembling or shaking like in the movies.(Trembling is another stage of Qi pratice)  Now the Qi will be flowing without your notice.  The only difference is that you'll be refreshed.   Even through a hard working day and you are tired,  you will find a fresh spirit after only one round of your Qi movement.

首先幻想，氣是集中在你的丹田的。你可以幻想其中一股氣，由你的丹田走出來，經過你的前驅體前方，經過你的肚臍，然後經過你的喉嚨去到你的下唇。然後另外一股氣，由你的丹田走向你的軀體後方，經過你背部，後頸，頭頂，前額，鼻尖，上唇。

一前一後兩股氣，最好是同一時間並行的，不要一先一後。然後兩股氣在你的口中相遇：主要是在你的牙齒相遇。如果你扣齒，這兩股氣就會相接。當然不能只叩齒一兩下。要連續的扣，然後把氣從牙齒導引到頭部。引氣上行，經過雙眼，在頭部轉一個圈，經頸項回落，入於軀幹，腰，腹，在丹田稍停，然後出來，經過兩條大腿，小腿，腳掌，進入地下離開。

以上所述，好像是要練習經年的大師才能做到，其實不是的。這是人體設計最奇妙的地方，氣是可以利用想像帶動的。心想，氣就到。
