The Main Door is essentially the Qi mouth of the House. This is the primary entrance for Qi from the environment. In evaluating the Main Door, one needs to be aware of the importance of forms that affect the Main Door internally and externally.

Internal forms are forms located inside the house and affect the Main Door from the inside while external forms are forms that affect the Main Door from the outside. When evaluating the Main Door, it is important to not just look in, but to look out as well.

The Bright Hall (Ming Tau Ju Shui Hua Wan Sha) is a Feng Shui terms that refers to the space directly in front of the property.

It is a myth to say that the porch light makes a ‘Bright Hall’. Having multiple lights in front of the house does not create a Bright Hall. The term ‘Bright Hall’ refers to a spacious area in front of the Main Door that helps to collect Qi in the area. Qi must first settle and collect, before you can receive it.

Therefore, it is beneficial for a property to have a spacious area in front of the Main Door to collect Qi.

The Internal Bright Hall is the space immediately after the Main Door. A spacious area here is needed for Qi to collect and circulate. The only way is to ensure the immediate area in front of the Main Door is clear, spacious and broad.

The kitchen is the second most important factor that a Classical Fen Shui consultant will evaluate. Accordingly, if the Qi in the kitchen is good, then the residents of the property will consume good food or proper food, resulting in good health.

The kitchen should never be located in the central palace or the Heavenly Heart of property.
the central palace is a passive sector of the home, where Qi flow should be subtle and peaceful. A kitchen should always be in one of the side sectors of the house, never the centre.

In the kitchen, we do not like to have Fire and Water clashing (Shui Huo Xiang Chong). The sink and stove should have a gap of 1 - 2 feet between each other. Another guide is that the sink and stove should not be directly opposite each other.

The bedroom is one of the most important factors of analyzing internal Feng Shui, as the bedroom represents the place where we spend 1/3 of our lives.

Sleeping and resting are important activities which impact on our health and vitality. Firstly, the bedroom itself has to have good forms. It is important that the basic shape of the room is squarish or rectangular. One should avoid rooms that are rounded, triangular, trapezium or odd shaped with sharp corners.

Feet pointing at Room Door
Positioning the bed facing the door of the bedroom or toilet, with the feet pointing towards the door is bad Feng Shui. This position means that the Qi entering the room through the door crashes into the bed, causing interrupted or bad sleep. The solution is quite simple - move the bed so that you are not sleeping, head or foot, in direct alignment with the bedroom or toilet door.

As the staircase is essentially a Secondary Qi mouth, it should be located in a sector where it can benefit all the rooms upstairs. Staircases should never be in the middle of the property as it disrupts the flow of Qi in the property.

As a general rule, staircases that have more landings are better because the Qi meanders and has a place to collect before moving to the next level.

Staircases should not lead directly to any rooms. Always create a landing so that Qi collects and settles before entering the room.

A toilet above the Main Door is often a concern for many people. It is only a concern if the actual toilet bowl itself (or a bathtub) is squarely above the Main Door.

In the event that the toilet bowl or a bathtub is squarely above the Main Door, then the house will have the problem of excess of Water Qi above the Main Door, creating a body of negative Qi surrounding the door area.
