A lift facing your front door is just like a tiger opening its mouth to eat people. As the lift opens and closes, the balance of Qi field will be broken, leading to accidents or money losses.
Cures:
1. Place a string of five, six or ten-emperor coins under your threshold or door mat inside the door.

In mandarin Chinese, gourd is homophonic "fortune", so it can bring you good luck in addition to exorcising evil spirits.

Couch with Back to the Front Door (0 Reply ) Asked by V***n
Hi! I am moving to a new house the the living room opposite the front door entrance. There is no living room door because it is an open concept layout. There is no way to place the main couch so that it does not have its back to the front door. I can put it along the side in front of windows, which may also be bad feng shui. What can I do? Thanks!

I was wondering if you need to be concerned about the direction of the garage door and the back/patio doors if they are not facing a favorable direction for your horoscope. Does only the front door count?

If the front door of the house conflicts with the owner’s horoscope, would it be OK if the residents avoid usage of this door and only use access through the garage door which is in a favorable direction for the owner’s horoscope. Does that change the unfavorable direction? Thanks!
New House Front Door (1 Reply ) Asked by V***n
Hi! I am looking into buying a new home and I have a few questions about front door feng shui. 1) I am year of a female 1974 year of the Tiger and my Kua number is 7, so a property with a South (6 Killing) facing front door will not be favorable for me. However, I found this property with a South-facing front door and a West (favorable - personal growth) facing garage door and alternate exit. Is it OK for me to live in such a house if I never use the front door and only use the garage for entering and exiting the house? 2) If I am to move within the next few months, what days are favorable for me in December 2022 and January 2023? Thank you so much for your advice! Noreen
