Hi master,
Please advice me where should i place altar, i have indicated A or B location or any best location
What are the things to look out for moving when moving into new house.

Thank you.

Please see attachment:
1. Location A is not ideal. As an altar is not suppose to "look" into the home e.g. into most of the bedrooms / toilets if any.
2. Location B is not as bad as it is placed next to an opening and the gods could "look out" of the home instead of no choice but to look into all "sleeping quarters".
2.1. Location B may not be suitable IF, it is directly or indirectly facing the afternoon sun. You won't want the god(s) to have to "wear" sun-glasses.
3. An altar can be placed along the same wall as marking "C". Or at position C. Provided the TV set if placed on this same wall is at least 1 metre away or any speakers that close to it.
4. An altar cannot be placed in the area X as it cannot share the same wall as a toilet.
5. A last resort could be location "D". Again it shares the same if there is indirect or direct afternoon sun.
6. Can understand that there is not much walls to place an altar in such a home. As a last resort again, if location marked E is not affected by rain water or afternoon sun, this is another "last resort" position. So far no MCST has "chased" away an owner placing their religious altar even if it is at the balcony - especially of a condo unit - other than hanging clothes there.

Hi Master,
I also need a similar advice. We have two separate altars at home. 1 for our ancestors and another Buddhist altar with Three Buddhas and Guan Yin in another table.
Would like to know where best to place both altars. "A" has been selected initially for our ancestors altar. B, C and D are options for the Buddhist Altar.
