Concept of facing direction

[nntpguest]

Dear Master Lee,
Need your advice on the "facing direction" concept.
Anyway, I remember I read a book some time ago and it stated
that, the facing direction of a house is not necessary
be the main door of a house. It can be a window,
or even the back door - depends on "what" or "where"
it faces.
For instance, if the back door faces a busy main road
and the main door faces a wall or jungle (somehow),
then, the facing direction will be measured from the
center point to to the back door. (and not the main door)
How true is this statement?
For my case, I am staying in HK and most of the people
here stays in flats. The main door either faces the neighbour's door
or a wall. But, however, normally the balcony or windows of the living room
faces directly to the sea, another block and the busy main street.
Does that mean the facing direction of the house is measured differently
i.e. not to the main door ?
Secondly, regarding the sleeping position. When you say the
sleeping position is West, does that mean the arrow of
the compass that points right towards the back of our head
shows WEST ? (after adjusting the arrow to points to north ?)
i.e.
^
NORTH

WEST
leg head
And at my working place, when I sit on my chair and
place a compass on my table it shows WEST.
(after adjusting the relevant arrow to North)
0 ---
WEST

Is "WEST" my work position or is it "EAST" which is at the
back (just like the sleeping position ?)
Thank you in advance.

Dear Anon,
1. If you have the time, please go thru this resource:-
http://www.geomancy.net/resources/art/art-cecilcompass.htm
2. If one is applying Compass School of Feng Shui, if one looks a it carefully, for example if you house or apartment or many others that belong to Period 7 (1984 to 2003), most of such houses / apartments has bad influence at the East and South.
Given this very general idea/information, most of the time, even if we take the door direction `wrongly' - this is very subjective: all the time the base # number plus the yearly and monthly base # will remain the same. The only thing that change is the #mountain #water.
3. Overall, and very generally, most of the time, the answer is nearly almost the same e.g. East and South - inauspicious sectors.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
