What should you pay attention to when using a compass to orient yourself? Under what circumstances can the building door be used to determine

Introduction: The compass is a tool of the Feng Shui master, and it can be said to be the master's bread and butter. The most basic function of the compass is orientation. So, what should we pay attention to when using a compass to determine direction? Under what circumstances can the building door be used for orientation? Let’s take a look at it together below! To know more about the Feng Shui knowledge of the compass, Mr. Shui Mo has compiled more related articles for you.

There are several situations where the Feng Shui compass is oriented by the building door:

1. Nowadays, most rural compound houses are multi-storey buildings. They are also oriented by pointing the compass at the main entrance. If there is a fence around the house, the gate of the fence cannot be used for orientation.
2. Rural bungalows and courtyard houses. The gate that the compass is pointed to is the main gate of the compound.
3. When orienting a large factory area with multiple office buildings, the orientation should be based on the building where the factory's headquarters is located, rather than the factory gate. If the factory is just a processing workshop and no neighbors work there, the orientation should be based on the factory gate.
4. Multi-story irregular buildings. For example, there are many L-shaped, U-shaped, and even rooms that look like an open book. In this case, the main entrance of the entire building is used as the direction (generally, the doors of buildings are divided into primary and secondary ones). Feng Shui master Liu Ziming talks about how to use the compass 5. The storefront located on the side of the road is oriented directly by the door of the storefront. If some buildings have facing doors on the first floor and the second floors and above are residential buildings, and the rooms on the first floor facing doors are entered from the road while the residential rooms on the second floors and above are entered through their unit doors, then when handling the situation, it is necessary to see whether the rooms on the first floor facing doors are connected to the unit doors used by the residential rooms on the second floor. If the unit doors cannot enter the facing rooms, they are not connected. In this case, the first floor will be oriented according to the facing door, and the second floor will be oriented according to the unit doors. If the door on the first floor is connected to the unit building door, and one can enter the shop front through the unit building door, then they are connected. At this time, the shop on the first floor and the residences on the second floor and above are oriented to the unit building door, and the door of the shop is only considered as an air outlet.

Tips for using a compass to orient yourself

1. Never orient yourself inside a house, because the house is full of reinforced concrete and household appliances, which will affect the degree of the magnetic needle.
2. When using a compass for orientation, you must be careful not to let the compass be too close to the house to be measured. If it is too close, the compass needle will be affected and there will be errors. At the same time, you must also pay attention to whether there are steel bars, ironware and other items outside the house, because these things will also cause the compass needle to have errors. Once when I was orienting a friend's new home, the residential building was still under construction, so the outside of the house was full of steel scaffolding. It was these steel bars that caused the compass needle to deviate by more than four degrees, so you must pay attention to the above situation when orienting.
3. When orienteering, your body posture must be relaxed. Hold the compass with both hands and place it on your waist. Your body posture should be such that your chest is tucked in and your back is straightened. First, visually check whether the edge of the compass is parallel to one side of the house being measured (the wall facing the measurement). Once it feels parallel, check whether the level of the compass is tilted up and down. If it is tilted, adjust the level to a horizontal position (with the mercury in the center of the level). Then rotate the compass so that the compass's sky plate needle and the red line of the Tianchi overlap closely, and see which character the red line, which is pressed on the front and back (not left and right) relationship with the body, is pressed on, so as to determine the direction. This is the body position during orientation.
4. Pay attention to the impact of the surrounding magnetic field on the compass. When taking directions, a turned-on cell phone, an iron or copper belt buckle around the waist, and surrounding cars and other iron materials will affect the compass, so stay away from these objects when taking directions. This is also where special attention needs to be paid.
5. Generally, it takes several times to complete the orientation. Each time you orient yourself, you should measure repeatedly at different distances to see if it is the same orientation.
