My questions is how do you read a Compass, is it behind the door or in front of an open door?
Move closer, or away from the main door, take the compass reading from inside the house, then take it from the outside (this is where you will have your back to the door.) See if there are slight variations. If there is a lot of metal close to you, as in the door metal hardware, or, for example, you are wearing a heavy metal watch or metal jewelry, this will disturb the reading.
So, the reading is taken while you are facing out your main door, because you want to know which direction your house is facing.
Once you have the feng shui compass reading you need your floor plan, so that you can accurately find the center, or the heart of the space, often also called the yin-yang point.
From there you will define the Ba-Gua, or the feng shui energy map of your space, and will start the journey of changing your life with feng shui!
