Based on your sketch, your entrance to your house should be considered. And in your sketch it looks like East. And not NNE which is the entrance of the building.

Please note that the Eight House Theory is meant more to find out how suitable the house is to you and your family members. And it is good if one spents time at that sector. Especially if the sector is the bedroom. The Eight House theory is about people living in the house.

The Flying Star can be used to check on the birth chart of the house and find out and neutralise what's wrong with the house. And the Flying Star is about examining and fixing the imbalances in the house and increasing Qi.

It is good to use the Eight House and Flying star rather than go buy a dragon.

In Feng Shui, if there is a `leak' we go and fix the leak. We do not go and beautify ourselves without regard to the external environment.

I am afraid, Feng Shui involves a holistic approach using the following main theories:

Earth Luck:
Shapes and Forms
Eight House
Flying Star
Ba Zi Feng Shui

In order to properly diagnose or fix the problems, the above are mostly used effectively.

Often, we may have the wrong idea that buying this figurine or that figurine will work wonders. This type of hocus pocus Feng Shui or "paying homage " to a sector can only be found in books. And not real life solutions.

Therefore, do fix the leak first. How to? thru holistic Feng Shui. Which unfortunately is not like `instant coffee'. It involves various investigations and fixes on the various leaks in the home etc...

Under Shapes and Form Feng Shui, I noticed that in your bedroom; the door opens to immediately face the bed.

Maybe you should consider changing the bed to the location of your TV cabinet area. This is a better position under shapes and form Feng Shui.

As mentioned, we can run, circles and not sure what is wrong with the house. It is best to use a holistic approach in Feng Shui.

Warmest Regards,
