1. Four main directions of opening

In traditional Chinese Feng Shui, the four directions of south, north, east and west are symbolized by four spiritual animals: peacock, black tortoise, blue dragon and white tiger.
It is mentioned in the "Ten Books on Yang House". Any house with flowing water on the left is called Qinglong. There is a long road on the right, which is called the White Tiger. There is a sweat pool in front, called Zhuque. There are hills behind it, which are called Xuanwu. This is the most expensive place.
It is also mentioned in Japan's "The Tale of the Heike". Uda Village faces a river to the east, a road to the west, a pond to the south, and mountains to the north. It is actually the place where the four gods correspond.
The formula for the four major directions is: "Suzaku in front, Xuanwu behind, Azure Dragon on the left, and White Tiger on the right." There are four main choices for opening the door of a general house, namely: opening the south gate (Suzaku Gate), opening the left door (Azure Dragon Gate), opening the right door (White Tiger Gate), and opening the north gate (Xuanwu Gate).
In Feng Shui, it is auspicious to have a bright space in front of the door. If there is green grass, flat land, a pool, a parking lot, etc. in front of the door, it is better to have a middle door. If there is no Mingtang in front, it is better to open the left door, because the left is the "Green Dragon Position" and the Green Dragon is auspicious. The right side belongs to the White Tiger, which is generally considered an inferior position, so opening a door on the right side is not a good idea. Opening the north gate is called the Xuanwu Gate, which is even more unlucky. In foreign countries, it is called the Ghost Gate, which also means "defeat", so you should be careful when opening the north gate at home.

2. Door opening must be coordinated with road shape

Open the Suzaku Gate:
There is a spacious green area, flat land, pond and parking lot in the south, which is the Mingtang. In this way, people gathered in the front can be received through the middle door, so the door should be opened in the middle of the front.
Opening the Qinglong Gate:
In Feng Shui, roads are regarded as water and the origin and development of the road are important. Earth energy flows from high and abundant places to low and less abundant places. If there is a street or corridor in front of the gate, the long road on the right represents incoming water, and the short road on the left represents outgoing water, then the left door should be opened to attract and intercept the earth energy. This method is called "Qinglongmen Qi Gathering".
Open the White Tiger Gate:
If there is a street or corridor in front of the front door, the long road on the left represents incoming water, and the short road on the right represents outgoing water, then the right door of the house should be opened to attract and intercept the earth energy. This method is called "White Tiger Gate Qi Gathering".

3. East Four Houses and West Four Houses

According to the principles of the Book of Changes, a house can be divided into four houses, east and west, according to its orientation. Among them are Kan, Zhen, Li, Xun, Gan, Kun, Dui and Gen.
For those whose horoscopes are Kan, Li, Zhen and Xun, the most suitable residence is the East-West House; while for those whose horoscopes are Qian, Kun, Dui and Gen, the most suitable residence is the West Four House.

4. The orientation of the main door

The orientation of the front door is determined by the direction it faces.
If we stand inside the house and face the door, the direction we are facing is "Xiang", and the direction opposite to "Xiang" is "Zuo".
1. The Zhen house is located in the east and the main door faces west.
2. The Xun house is located in the southeast and the gate faces northwest.
3. The house is located in the south and the main door faces north.
4. Kun House is located in the southwest and the gate faces the northeast.
5. The Dui house is located in the west and the door faces the east.
6. Gan’s house is located in the northwest, and the main door faces southeast.
7. The Kan house is located in the northeast, and the door faces south.
8. The Gen house faces northeast and the gate faces southwest.
If the owner's fate hexagram is not compatible with the house hexagram, for example, an owner with an East Four fate lives in a West Four house, then one can avoid misfortune and seek good fortune by changing the door.
The way to change the position of the door is to add a screen inside the door. Screens are very important in home decoration, and in ancient times, they were widely used. Screens were required in every living room.
Screens have three main functions: changing the position of doors, dividing spaces, and protecting privacy. Depending on the materials used, it can be divided into glass screens, carved screens, calligraphy and painting screens, etc.
The characteristics of screens are: they take up little space and are easy and flexible to move. In the following situations, screens can play an important role as a tool to resolve external evil.
