Dear Master,

I have just bought a house, and realise that the only suitable place to put the Guan Yin altar is facing the main door. Is there any work-around solution for this? Thanks!

Dear Anon,

Unfortunately, since you mentioned that this is the only possible position you can place the altar. Then, there is very little you can do to re-position it.

I mean Feng Shui is also actually about common-sense. I mean if course when possible if you are able to it is best to place it in the best possible position. But sometimes, these things happen and there is no possible alternative for you. So you just have to make do.

When you look at feng shui, you have to look at it in a wholistic approach. Meaning that there are major issues right down to minor issues. It does not mean that just because one area is wrong, you will be faced with issues.

Frankly, it takes a couple of problems such as a house with bad exterior feng shui, interior feng shui, unsuitablity to the home, bad ba zi luck period etc. Many factors which are unfavourable to happen at the same time before it is declared as a DOOMSDAY. Otherwise, as long as you fix up whatever you can. There shouldn't be much of an issue.

In this case, this isn't the worst kind of placement. Just not as good, because it would seem that you are like employing the Guan Yin to be a security guard for the home. But like you mentioned, no other better placement. So it will have to make do. Maybe, the best way is just to offer more incense so as to make up for the flaw.

Hope that helps.

Warmest Regards
