Dear Sue,

In a broad sense, both statements are correct.

Usually, you need a competent Feng Shui practitioner to do a Feng Shui for an entire building. The practitioner not only takes into consideration the main entrance of the building but also the frontage. He/She also do an environmental scanning.

Some Feng Shui practioners use only Shapes and Form here. While others combine Shapes and Form with Compass School techniques such as an extension of the Flying Star of the interior of a home to this building.

In your case, you most likely be concerned with the interior assessment of your home. Unless you hire a Feng Shui practitioner who most likely will also do an overall assessment of the landscape, the site and your home.

You can if you want to read more on Shapes and Form as it will be a great help in DIY assessments especially to look out for poison arrows e.g. sharp corners of buildings aimed at your home through a window in the house.

The traditional method of locating the direction of the main door is where your house number is placed.

However, most of us have more knowledge of Feng Shui and now wants to find out the various options available for the main door. If you have two entrances in the home e.g. a garage entrance and a main entrance, many people would like to find out which door is more suitable for them. Therefore, this is an option only.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
