Kua sitting and main door facing directions

Recommended Posts


Dear Cecil,
My husband (the breadwinner) is a East group person with Kua number 4. We are looking at a W2 (DUI)sitting house. This house has a garage up frontnext to a small gate (both the garage door and small gate have E facing). The gateopens into along courtyard before reaching the front door. Can you please help us with the following questions:
1) We read that a house sitting W isnot goodfor an East Group Person. However, under the Eight Mansions system, it is good if we have amain door facing E. If ourmain door is at the house facing direction (which is opposite the sitting), which is more important - should wechoose a favorable house sitting direction or favorable main door facing direction? Or should we find a more house where both the house facing and main door facing directions are favorable?
2) Can you please confirm how to determine the direction of the main door? We will use the garage doors most, so I'm guessing those would be considered the main doors. The firstgarage door isparallel to the facingof the house, which is E. However, it is in thefront left side of the houseand thus if you draw a line from the center of the house to the door, it would be facing NE. The second garage is in the front middle of the house (so a line from the center of the house to the door would be E). But this garage door is facing/tilted N.
3) We are also planning to use the front door, though not as much as the garage doors, so need help in determining the direction of this door. The front door is facing/tilted E. If we include the courtyard as part of the house, then a line from the center of the house to the door would be S. But if we exclude the courtyard as part of the house, then the direction from this center of the house would be SE.
Thank you so much for your help!
Sincerely,
Gwen

For a landed property it is best to consider the facing direction of the home vs the facing direction of the main door.

In this link although the mention is on "tilting main door" but; I understand that yours has to do with using certain doors; However, the concept of facing direction can best be understood from this url (just ignore the "need to tilt" sort of thing:-
http://wiki.geomancy.net/wiki/Tilting_Main_Door
Please note that your main door or garage door can be anywhere or on the side of the home. But the above link gives a better idea that no matter how the saying goes " A leopard never changes it's spots".
In addition; there are many links under "sticky" on "Facing Direction". Use the SEARCH feature on the top-left frame of this forum.

Or should we find a more house
where both the house facing
and main door facing
directions are
favorable?2) Can you
please confirm how to
determine the direction of the
main door? We will use
the garage doors most, so I'm
guessing those would be
considered the main
doors. The
firstgarage door
isparallel to the
facingof the house,
which is E. However, it
is in thefront left side

NE. The second garage is
in the front middle of the
house (so a line from the

this garage door is
facing/tilted N.3) We
are also planning to use the
front door, though not as much
as the garage doors, so need
help in determining the
direction of this door.
The front door is
facing/tilted E. If we
include the courtyard as part
of the house, then a line from
the center of the house to the
door would be S. But if
we exclude the courtyard as
part of the house, then the
direction from this center of
the house would be SE.Thank

Dear Cecil,
Thank you so much for your reply! Can you please confirm if my new understanding (below) is correct or not? This is regarding a landed propertyfor a east group person, whose favorable directions are N, S, E and SE.
1. For the Eight House system, the reason we try to find out the facing of the main door is to determine the facing of the house (since they're usually the same). We should find a house with a sitting direction (opposite the facing direction) that is favorable (N, S, E and SE). Thusam I wrong to think that we are looking for houses with main doors facing the favorable directions (N, S, E and SE)? Or is the ideal situation where both the sitting of the house and the facing of the main door are favorable directions? Also, under the Eight House system, the facing of the main door is taken while standing in the middle of the door looking out. It doesn't matter where the door is located in relation to the center of the house.
2. For the Flying Star system,the directionof the main door is based on drawing a line from the center of the house to the door.It doesn't matter what direction the door is facing/tiled. Under theFlying Star system, it is good tohave the main door in a favorable section of the house.
Thank you for your help!

In a simplistic way; what you wrote makes sense. The url below shows the SUMMARY of a delicate balance between not only the Eight House with Flying Star but also Ba zi Feng Shui
http://forum.geomancy.net/phpforum/article.php?bid=2&fid=1&mid=29739&new

The reason for finding the Facing Direction (can be or may not be the main door) is usually the location where there are the most openings. Thus, OFTEN for a landed property it is standing inside the house looking out of the frontage. For an apartment: I believe this has been mentioned in many past forum messages.
In Flying Star, the key is to determine where is the most Yang Qi such as the largest amount of openings where most likely qi would flow into the home or apartment. Often it is along the stretch of the windows along the living room windows - side.
Try to "forget" more of the emphasis of MAIN DOOR. But subsitute this with FACING direction, instead. So that the "novice" mind is used to the more proper term. If one keeps on saying MAIN DOOR, main door, main door; then it may be so much confusing for the brain.

1. Please note that the report considers three factors: Eight House, Flying Star and Ba Zi of the breadwinner.
2. Yang Feng Shui or Feng Shui for the living; the facing direction is important.
3. For Yin Feng Shui or Feng Shui for the dead; then refer to what you mentioned, below.
4. The Flying Star Period 7 applies; only thing is that under Period 8; the #8 are important for this period. Majority of the time; each sector will still depend on the 81 combinations or interactions of the Mountain star vs the Water star.
