What are the top 3 positions for placing a wall clock?

[blubugs]

Hi Master Cecil, I have read quite extensively (on internet and on this forum) on position for wall clock but still have some doubts - e.g. I know it is inauspicious to put clock on top of a door but some sources say clock should NOT look inwards into bedroom while others say clock should NOT face a window etc.  

Can you see attached floor plan of my living room (windows facing north east direction) and let me know which position (in red) is the best to place a wall clock? 

A - behind dining table but may be looking inwards into the bedrooms

B- beside altar but looking out to the windows

C-beside a wall to kitchen

 

Note - the position of altar can be changed as well but after reading your advice extensively on this forum, I feel this is the best position - pls let me know if this is not the case.

This is a well-known Chinese prohibition [or taboo]

1. The positioning of a clock holds greater significance in relation to symbolism and the Chinese culture, rather than other ethnicities.

1.1. In Chinese culture, giving someone a clock for their home is often seen as bringing bad luck.

1.2. Having a clock facing the main door or pointed directly at a person is also considered inauspicious in Chinese tradition.

1.3. These beliefs come from long-held cultural symbolism in Chinese customs.

2. Another reason, not mentioned earlier, comes simply from everyday common sense.

2.1. Some Feng Shui masters suggest avoiding placing a clock above a door, hallway, or right over a bedroom entrance.

2.2. Their advice comes from the possibility that the clock could fall and accidentally injure someone.

2.3. If the clock has a glass front, it could crack and create a hazard, especially if the glass is not tempered.

3. When thinking about where to place a clock:

3.1. It’s better not to put a clock at location B, since the ticking sound may be thought to irritate the gods in Chinese culture.

3.2. Location A works well because it’s not directly visible from the passageway.

3.3. Location C is fine too, but it’s worth keeping in mind the safety concern mentioned in paragraph 2.2 if the clock were to fall.

Good morning master lee, does hanging a wall clock have fengshui? I need to put a wall clock in the living room. Or i could hang it facing the bedroom walkways beside the atlar ?

Reply: Not facing walkway leading into bedrooms. Avoid facing the main door. Avoid facing altar or above it. Or above the passageway ceiling before entering the bedroom.The rest is ok

Master Lee, we move in to our new house at [hidden] already. Can I seek your advise on any location to avoid in putting this simple clock ?

Avoid facing the front door, corridor facing the passageway to the bedrooms or above the passageway beam leading into the bedrooms. Or directly facing the front door.

Otherwise, no issue.
