Dear Rosemarie,
1. If one is applying the `formula' or the Gua number, it is best to apply a specific site's interpretation from begining to the end.
2. The rationale is because, if one uses the steps provided by e.g. each site one should as a end result get the same answers.
3. I cannot blame you for getting confused especially, if one reads a few lines from one site and follow another set of guidelines from another e.g. book.
Here, again, I must emphasise, you have to read totally the instructions from a site and follow it.
4. Rationale, why many are confused:-
4.1 The original template or Chinese compass uses the magnetic South to North. While the western uses North to South.
4.2 To complicate this, some sites refer to the instructions based on the Chinese Luo Pan or Chinese Compass.
Here, we call the frontage the " FACING " direction while the back is known as the " SITTING " direction.
This is why, some books define that the you have to refer to the back door or the `sitting ' direction.
This is prefectly correct since the sitting direction is always facing the front (or the front door area).
5. As this is an international website catering to people who can easily get an ordinary hiker's compass, the main door is always at the direction where the compass is pointing to (from the centre-point of the house). Contrast this with the Chinese Luo pan where the alignment is South to North.
6. Therefore, one has to read the instructions from one site (from start to end) or totally.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
