Is The Front Gate Considered The Main Door?

Featured Replies

Hi was wondering if we bought the recess area (corridor )of a corner flat and have a gate on the corridor. If we leave the door at its current position. The Gate and the door will be in different positions. Which will be considered the main door? The gate or the door?

Hope someone can shed some light...

Thxs for the insight, still trying to figure out.

There is a book by Joel Yap on fengshui (for interior) in the library. He does explain very well how to decide the facing of the house where the main gate and the main door are different. As a matter of fact, according to him, the door may not be facing of the house but the main windows is.

You should go to the library and borrow his book and read through it. You will get a good idea and apply to your case.

Brain storming becomes "pouring cold water"??. Cold water makes everybody wakeups also not bad leh.

- Do RIGHT thing, not do thing RIGHT. Remember, no matter how nice u do on the WRONG thing, it is still wrong. Do right thing and do it right is the key.

- Effectiveness comes before efficiency, always. Same as leadership(set directions) comes b4 management(day-to-day).

Why care so much about the house's what direction?. Care less whether from windows, ming tang(a very confused concept and term), door, gate, or from roof top. The air circulation (u better go & study geography, astronomy) heat effect, sunlight, noise, neighbour(humanity)etc etc....are most important. Should put the "direction" on its surroundings lah.

You buy the house, you already decided its surroundings meaning you have already "done" 80% of fs on your own liao. Very "little"(only 20%, agar agar)fsms can do, esp hdb, condo units. Landed is another story.

But the TS said his is a corner flat and he/she has the intention of buying the recess.

Shouldn't his case be different from terrace house whereby the gate and maindoor usually faces the same direction?

Hot equal fire element ?

I am a metal element in Oct, fire element means Power to me ?

If above is true, no wonder my boss want to put more manpower resources to report to me. But power is not equal to wealth

OBSERVATION of wuxing relationship is correct, however, these days' APPLICATION of wuxing concept onto "things" around our daily life is very subjective/questionable. One typical "WRONG" application example is the placement of appliances in kitchen. Why? Appliances are DEAD, they are NON-INTERDEPENDENCE in nature in anyway, unlike organs within our body.

Anyway fire "burns" metel away. Earth "benifits" fire. Fire gives rise to "water".
