Your Front Door
Whether you are living in an expansive
estate or a tiny apartment, your main entry
is considering the "Mouth of Ch'i" or the
"Breath of Life;" the most important part
of your home, just like breathing is vital
to sustain human life. You want to attract
Ch'i (energy) into your home, so that it
circulates around each room and brings
health, wealth and good fortune. In order
to do that, your front door should be visible
from the street. The path to get to your
door should be obvious, as well as being
well-lit. In order to welcome the Ch'i inside,
your front yard, porch and entry should all
be clean and well maintained.
Other Interior
Doors
• Doors should open to provide the
person entering a room to achieve
the widest view possible.
• Doors in direct alignment facing
one another in a hallway are best.
• Doorknobs that knock together
can create family conflicts.
• The Chinese avoid 3 or more doors
(or windows) in a row.
• Doors represent adults in your
household, so eliminating a door
might mean someone is going to
move out, or even pass on.
