1. Feng Shui Front Door Design
In Feng Shui philosophy, the front door welcomes vital energy and opportunities into your space. Its design and placement dictate the quality of energy that permeates your environment, influencing everything from your health and relationships to your financial prosperity. It’s always good to have a foyer or small entry area for the energy to slow down, settle and collect before moving through the home or business.
2. Choosing the Right Colour for Your Front Door
The colour of your front door is a potent expression of symbolism, conveying specific energies and intentions, affecting the mood and atmosphere of your home. Whether you opt for vibrant red for a South facing door, tranquil blue for North, white for West, or grounding earth tones for the East facing, selecting the right colour for your front door can enhance the flow of positive energy and foster a sense of harmony within your living space.
3. Safeguard Your Entrance
Strategically place Feng Shui remedies such as protective symbols or elements, you can create a shield against negative influences and promote a sense of security and well-being. Some elements include Bagua Mirrors to deflect negative energy, Fu Dogs or Guardian Lions by the door, wind chimes to disperse negative energy, crystals like black tourmaline or hematite, or plants like the ‘Money Plant’ (pachira aquatica).
4. Feng Shui & Door Placement
Proper placement of the front door is paramount in Feng Shui practice, as it determines how energy flows into your home. Ideally, the front door should be positioned to allow chi to enter freely, without encountering obstacles or blockages. Avoid placing the front door directly facing a staircase, wall, or sharp corner, as this can disrupt the natural flow of energy and create stagnation. By ensuring proper placement, you create a harmonious pathway for energy to circulate throughout your living space, promoting balance and vitality.
5. No Sticky Doors!

Keeping your door well-maintained and clutter free will ensure a smoother flow of energy into and around your space. This also includes how well money can find you too, if you have difficulty with your front door you will have difficulty with money.
