I am new to Feng Shui and just bought a book about it. According to the book, North West is a death location. I happened to just moved into a new apartment with single entrance, and this entrance is located in NW section, with door facing North. What can I do about it?

Dear Panya,
1. Having the main door at one's death location is not ideal but is not `the end of the world' senario. Here, we consider that the house is the least suitable to the breadwinner.
2. Try to look at it from a `bigger' picture:
2.1 Check also the influence in your bedroom i.e. places you spent most of your time at.
The above is only one puzzle i.e. the use of the Eight House Theory.
3. Even if you have not so good Eight House intangible forces, you can take advantage especially if the house has good Shapes and Form Feng Shui.
4. Here, since the main entrance is the `death' sector, I strongly recommend that you do a Flying Star analysis.
What the Flying Star analysis is to help reduce any problems (if any). Here, it is used to check the birth chart of your house (distinct) from how suitable the house to you.
5. With the conscious effort of improving the Flying Star of the house i.e. neutralize any imbalances, this would help greatly to improve the overall Feng Shui of the house.
6. Under the Shapes and Form, it is essential to `protect' your main door, your windows from poison arrows.
Make sure that the interior conform to good Shapes and Form.
A holistic approach to Feng Shui is a sensible option then to `worry' over one aspect of " Feng Shui " such as the Eight House Theory.
Here, you try to tip the balance or increase or improve your `luck' dispite this `handicap'.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
