Dear Anon,

Some Feng Shui practitioners advice one not to place a shoe rack immediately outside the main entrance.

It is not difficult to guess the reason for it. As the main entrance is an important part of the house, the `worry' of some practitioners is that Qi from the `inauspicious' shoe rack is sweep into the home.

The rationale is that the area around the main entrance should be `clear' space and clean.

Where possible, try not to place the shoe rack at the main entrance. Usually, there is a tendency to keep unused shoes in there for some time.

It is not a `must' but it is good not to have the shoe rack outside the main entrance. Usually, if one has a back door, it is ok to place the shoe rack there.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
