Why Is NE the Worst Facing Direction?

Dear Master Cecil:
Why NE is the worst house facing direction? What if NE is the auspicious direction for the bread winner of the household? Thank you.
Regards,
Jen

Dear Jen,
Please don't get too unduly worried about this.
There are so many theories in Feng Shui.
One reference point has to do with these:
1. Spirits - are (were) said to travel in a straight line. The thought is (was) that they cannot negotiate turnings.
This is the rationale why, many bridges have curves or even some Feng Shui practitioners ask their clients to tilt their door at the NE.
2. Clue: The idea came about because: NE is suppose to be the location where spirits or ghosts come into our world i.e. the devil's gate. And it would be so convenient; (to enter our homes) if our main door happens to be the first door they see. BTW, they are said to be able to go thru doors. So, if one is thinking of getting a door similar to a Bank's vault door (even Class A) rated door won't halt their advance. This is why doors are tilted.
Please note that this does not imply Armageddon or "The end of days". For these, please buy VCDs or DVDs such as Armageddon staring Bruce Willis or Arnold S.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
