How does Qi moves inside the house

Dear cecil,
I am posting this question on behalf of my friend who wanted to know how Qi moves inside the house when it enters through the main door. Whether it moves anticlockwise or clockwise. Thanks.

Dear Anon,
This is a very interesting question:
1. I recalled one Australian Feng Shui practioner was doing an experiment (not so much of Qi) movement but rather how water is drained from a water pipe.
She `found' that water drains from the water pipe, I forgot whether it is clock-wise or anti-clockwise. She `found' that this was difference from the North Hemisphere.
I am not bring up the subject of the North or South debate but just my thoughts.
If you were to ask me, my believe like others in the Feng Shui field is that the Feng Shui model plus Destiny models originating from the North Hemisphere (where China is) can be applied without modification in the Southern Hemisphere.
This is because, the models are based on Yin and Yang and Five Elements concept and no one can at present provide an academic model to show differences in application in the Southern Hemisphere.
Sorry for detracting on the issue.
2. Frankly, unless someone has done an actual experiment of the flow of Qi, I cannot comment on the academic methods or any results on it.
But based on Feng Shui, it is said that Qi should not flow into the house and immediately flow out. It is best or ideal for it to meander in to the house.
It need not necessarily be from the front door. Here, many FS Masters have indicated that the frontage of the house or the location where light comes in is another location for Qi coming into the house.
It is difficult to measure the main entrance based on this frontage concept and this is why, many of us have resorted to measure the house based on the traditional model of the location of the main entrance door.
For now, I cannot provide you with how Qi really flows into the house. Other than each of us imagine how it comes in and out.
For those who can obtain a smoke bomb *Joke* or light up a charcoal stove can by all means experiment with it. Unfortunately if the house turns soothy... erh.. don't take my advise seriously.
In fact, some Feng Shui masters have classified Qi into many sub-divisions. For example, some classified the Qi in a stale store room as suffocating Qi. Sometimes when I do an audit and enters a store room, it really feels suffocating.
We can also experiment on the basis where, it is sometimes no point opening a window, if say the bedroom door is not opened especially if there is no gap below. Air or `Qi' cannot come in and go out.
Since Qi is "invisible", and this is where non-believers of Feng Shui indeed have their field day in `condemming' FS.
I leave it to each individual's opinion on this issue.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
