I am attaching a file with the floor plan of our apartment unit. I am not sure how to draw the sectors for flying star. I don't know whether to treat the NW and NE corners as protrusions and leave them out of the outline (pink line) or to treat the north side, and SE and SW corners as indentations and therefore make the outline outside of all the outer limits of our unit (red line).
Also, if I make the sectors as pie-shaped wedges (green lines), where is the center sector and how large should I make it?

Dear Miriam,
Thank you for your sketch:) It certainly helps to understand what you had mentioned.

In a pie chart, indents or protrusions do not really matter when superimposing or drawing out the lines for the pie.
It is only or during FS analysis that we see whether we can include a cure at a sector.
Since your sectors with `pink' are small in comparision to that sector, if a cure is required, then it can be placed within the house (instead of the `pink' areas).
For areas with large missing corners, then, that corner may be totally missing thus, in many situations we cannot say `hang' something there i.e. 6 coins.
In your pie chart, there should be an additional enhancement i.e. a circle at the centrepoint to indicate the centre of the house for the centre Flying Star numbers: #mountain with #water and a base star.
Otherwise, you had correctly drawn a proper pie chart.
Please refer to next message for the attachment for more details.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
