In the past, there was a saying in China's traditional psychology: "Changing the window to the door is certain to die", which shows that changing the window to the door is an ominous sign.
China's traditional four directions are symbolized by Suzaku, Xuanwu, Qinglong and Baihu. The corresponding azimuth formula is: "Former Suzaku, Back Xuanwu, Left Qinglong, Right White Tiger." Therefore, there are four main options for setting the door opening direction of a general house, namely, opening the south gate (Zhuquemen), opening the left gate (Qinglong Gate), opening the right gate (Baihumen) and opening the north gate (Xuanwu Gate).
In feng shui, it is lucky to have a famous hall in front of the door. If there is greening, flat land, pool and parking lot in front, opening the middle door is our first choice. If there is no famous hall in front, it is better to open the door on the left, because on the left is Qinglong, which is auspicious. The white tiger on the right is generally considered inferior, so it is not good to open the door on the right. It is a worse choice to open the North Gate as Xuanwu Gate, which means "losing". Therefore, the house should carefully open the north gate.
Opening the door must conform to the road shape:
Open Zhuquemen: there are spacious green spaces, flat land, pools and parking lots in the south, that is, there are halls. In this way, the middle door is used to receive the separation, and the door is suitable for opening in the middle of the front.
Open Qinglong Gate: In Feng Shui, the Tao is water, and the context is important. Geogas flows from high places to low places. If there is a street or corridor in front of the gate, the road on the right is long for water and the road on the left is short for drainage, so it is necessary to open the door on the left to extract and collect ground gas. This method is called "Qinglongmen Gas Gathering".
Open a hundred doors: If there is a street or corridor in front of the gate, the road on the left is long for water and the road on the right is short for drainage, then the house should open the door on the right to exhaust and collect the ground gas. This method is called "White Tiger Gate Gas Gathering".
Although there is a folk saying in China that "changing windows for doors will kill people", we should treat it dialectically according to the position, time and orientation of different windows. Sometimes, it is better to replace the window with a door.
