Understand Where to Measure
Determine the focus when it comes to the main features of your house (Doors, beds, stove, …etc)
Have you ever heard people talking about sleeping towards the road is bad idea? Since there’s a lack of understanding, they feel it looks like a tomb setting. It is not true of course!
For a Yang House Feng Shui which means the occupants of the building is still alive, the main focus for measurement is from the head, not the feet.
In this article, I will share four main important features of where you should put the focus on while measuring or making certain alignment, the door, stove, bedhead and study desk (working desk).
1. The Door
We always concern -first- about the Main Door, then we the other doors. Just like a body, the mouth is very important as it is the main portal for us to have nourishment.
Determining door direction: position yourself inside the room looking outward, what is it the direction we face. Inside looking outward. This method applies to all kind of door in your building.
2. The Stove
If you are the type that cook and having an active kitchen, they probably you might want to consider the stove direction important.
Regarding the location of the kitchen itself, usually we put them in the Jue Ming sector (possibly with a good Water Star, since cooking is an activity).
Avoid island style stove, I know it looks good and you can still interact with other family member while cooking, but it’s vulnerable to Sha Qi. Always prefer a stove with a solid backing, like wall.

Determining stove direction: using the knobs as the main focus. If the knobs are on the front, then which direction it is facing. If the knobs are on the side, then that is going to be the stove direction.
3. The Bed
Roughly one third portion of our day is dedicated for sleeping. Therefore, align yourself to a good energy while resting becoming important.
Bed should always be backed by a solid wall, no windows and have a bedhead. It is always a good idea to position your bed aligning the wall, leaving no gaps.
Determining bed direction: use the head as the main focus. See which direction is the head facing. A quick tip for you. Usually it’s the opposite direction of your feet.
4. The Study Desk (Working Desk)
This part is actually optional. Some people bring their work to home or simply working from home as it is the trend lately. If your work is something that is important to you (more than sleeping), then you should also attention to the your home office location.
Wherever you are sitting in the room, you should sit with wall on your back. It gives you support and keep you focus while doing your work.
Usually we want it to be in Sheng Qi or Fu Wei sector, possibly with a good Water Star. Sheng Qi and Fu Wei is part of the Eight Mansions System, I will link the article below this section if you’re interested in that.
Determining desk direction: what is the direction in front of you when you sit on the chair and the desk is in front of you.
