that work?
3. In traditional Feng Shui, a common method used is to tilt the door. For example, many FS practitioners are in not infavour of having the main entrance door face North-East, (devil's main gate) and if this so happens to be an inauspicious direction for the breadwinner.

4. Here, by tilting the main door e.g. to North, or another direction, which is favourable to the breadwinner, it is like killing two birds with one stone i.e. avoiding the NE direction and making it auspicious for the breadwinner.
5. For your question of making the door the "northern direction" perhaps can you specify further.
6. As in the Compass School of Feng Shui, north is north, south is south. There is no reference to north and "northern direction?".
7. In such a situation, I believe that it is not correct to say that north can be the "northern direction". As mentioned, perhaps, you may need to elaborate further or I may have misunderstood your question.
8. In tradtional Feng Shui, `frontage' is also another factor.
9. For example, the main entrance may be at the side of the building but the frontage could be facing North i.e. where some FS practitioners say that there is `more light' coming in to the building.

house. Should I consider that
my "main entrace" then?
Please advise. Thanks.

10. I like to understand that: Are you using the back door because of convenience or did you purposely use the back door because it is considered an auspicious sector?
In using the back door, you can check that it is an auspicious sector for you. But in terms of using Compass School computation of the birth chart of the house, say using Flying Star method, you should preferably use the compass direction of the main door as the input of the compass degree.
