Dear Master,

I noticed that the flow of Qi into a house is very important but nowadays everyone are closed the door whole day. How the Qi go inside the house? As example: if the main door facing NE which is excellent for the breadwinner but the door is closed all the time, additional there are a sliding full panner door facing South at living room (4 panner) and it open all the days but the door facing will not suitable for the breadwinner (Remark: this door not a entrance). Will it affact the breadwinner and which door should consider as door facing? Is NE or South?

Thank you.

Frankly, nowadays, irregardless of main door or balcony etc. Both can also be closed for some homes or offices that uses air-cond. However, that is why the main entrance where you enter in and out is still often the ideal direction where Qi will enter, as you will have to enter into the house at one time or another. Generally, that is still where Qi will enter into the house especially, when you enter or exit the house. The other is usually the balcony or living room direction.

What is important in determining which is the right facing. We have come up with the following breakdown:-

1. For landed property - best to take the facing of the house (not necessary the actual main door).

2. For apartment (2nd-7th level) - best to take the main door, this is because for lower floors, the tendency for trees or opposite building to block the Qi is higher, so better to take the main door where you enter in and out of the house.

3. For apartment (8th and up) - best to take the facing from the living room/balcony because the view or Qi is unblocked and more likely to enter from the living room and balcony area. Though, Qi enters from the main door as well, but greater qi is likely to enter from the living room/balcony.

Hope that helps.
