Door facing each other... Good or Bad? Is there a cure for this?

[myfs_143384]

Hi. I need help. We just bought a new house. The door to the guest bedroom and my sons bedroom are facing each other with the guest bathroom door on the middle. I was told that having two doors facing each other is not a good one. Is there any remedy aside from a renovation?

1. These are some of the considerations:

1.1. It has more to do with pyscholgy: where just imagine both parties exit each of the bedroom and eyes "meet head to head". This symbolises perhaps: personal clashes.

1.2. However, if only one bedroom is occupied and the other bedroom being a guest room is vacant most of the time. If so, there is relatively no issue with the two doors facing each other!

1.3. Feng Shui is also about symbolism. Thus the most common symbolic approach is to place a "RED" dot on the same area of each of the two doors. Here, the two RED dots symbolise eyes i.e. see eye to eye with each other.

1.4. How or what kind of red dot? It can a dot much like the pupil of an eye or smaller diameter. And just anything red can be used e.g. a permanent red felt pen or a red circular sticker or even for ladies with eithe chilli red or maroon nail vanish can also be used.

2. Contrary to popular belief; Feng Shui is not all things "renovation or demolishing a wall etc..." Far from it.

I cant thank you enough for enlightening me with this issue. I had hesitations buying the house just because of this.

I will definitely put a red eye on the door.

Again, thank you so much. You helped me a lot.

More power to you.

Please see attachment with illustration on where to place the two red dots.

In this attachment; I have shown two locations each for the placement of the red dots.

Must avoid placing the RED dot behind the handle of the door knob. As there is no direct path or "view" from the back plate of the door knob.

What happens if the red dot fades? Less wear and tear area is actually the key hole area. Or use a durable round sticker.

IN CONCLUSION

" This author humorously dismisses other recommended "cures" as being even more outlandish than their own simple approach. " - Cecil Lee, Geomancy.net

This is grounded in straightforward reasoning.

It is more probable to notice someone frequently if they are consistently present on the other side.

One can only hope it does not resemble the days of the Wild West, characterized by confrontations at "high noon."

[Cecil Lee]

Not all Feng Shui practitioners possess the same level of expertise.

Many present themselves as Feng Shui experts while merely operating as commercial enterprises. 

In Singapore, the situation is exacerbated by those with established lineages who engage in such practices openly. 

One might question, "Is it necessary for me to purchase from you?" When consumer demand ceases, the supply will also diminish. 

Genuine Feng Shui is based on scientific principles and does not necessitate the acquisition of costly commercial items under the guise of Feng Shui.

[Cecil Lee]

One additional compelling reason to refrain from purchasing commercial Feng Shui products is their questionable authenticity.

Hi..

I need your help,  i have a land on top the hill that facing  to sea and i going to build my own house.

is there remedy or advise.

1. It is challenging to fully grasp your description.

2. The positive aspect is that Feng Shui, which pertains to the environment one inhabits, such as a home or office, constitutes only one-third of the overall luck system.

3. A search for "the Holy Trinity of the Chinese Luck system" reveals that another component, known as Human or man luck, also represents one-third of this system.

4. This indicates the importance of creating a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere in your home, focusing on what brings you happiness and coziness in your new space.

5. Referring back to the previous point, it is indeed wonderful to discover that your home offers a sea view.

6. However, excessive wind, resulting from pressure variations between land and sea at certain times, can be detrimental, potentially leading to health issues and financial concerns.

7. Managing the wind entering your home is straightforward; if both ends of a space are open, ensure that there is no direct or uncontrolled airflow, if feasible.

8. I find it somewhat uncomfortable to elaborate on this topic, as I may be the only one who fully understands the nuances of what I am conveying.

9. Here is a simple illustration:

 

10. In the absence of a direct route, this approach can help reduce the loss of wealth.

11. For instance, one panel may be opened on one side while the panel on the opposite side remains closed.

What is Habit Number Three (3)?

Not as fancy.. given no sea view, here.. LOL..

Case Study: In HDB's history, there are many layout designs where two bedroom doors do face each other.

1. Here, two bedroom doors face each other.

2. This is like "High Noon" where two individuals stand on opposite room doors facing each other in a kinda of "Killing-mode". LOL 

[Cecil Lee]

1. A typical Period 7 HDB 4 Bedroom home layout.

2. Where the main door opens towards a bedroom opening and towards a window opening.

3. Some clients, simply change the bedroom door to the other side.

4. Often, the bedroom window panel is not opened or the main door is not always opened is another possible solution. (Or bedroom door closed).

Hi Master, for 2 bedroom doors directly opposite each other, your remedy is to put a red dot on the door knob/handle, exactly on the same spot. Will it still be as effective if both doors are left open at certain times of the day to let air circulate in the home? Does the red dot need to be relocated/repositioned, wherein it can always see "eye to eye" (e.g. on top of the door jamb area)?

Thanks Master.

Thanks Master.

For practical reasons if doors are opened most of the time, an alternative is to place a red dot above the door:

Sometimes one may even see a reflective mirror and a red dot as shown above.. Much like the flag from the "land of the rising sun"...

Is it okay to place the front door of the house aligned to the pedestrian gate?

Not idea to do so. To avoid malignant forces...

Hi Master, if my main door is align to the bedroom door. In between is the dining and living room. How can I improve on its fengshui? Thanks.
