The main door is the place to welcome wealth, to welcome wind, to bring luck to the family. Feng shui books clearly state that if the main door is designed against taboos, it will bring disadvantages and bad luck to the people living in the house. Especially, when building a house with 2 doors, both fortune and people will suffer, and everyone needs to remember this well.
Characteristics of a house with 2 doors
In reality, there are many houses with 2 doors, but not all 2 doors violate feng shui principles. First, it is necessary to clearly distinguish two cases of houses with 2 doors.
+ The first case is a house with two main doors, where the functions, sizes, designs… of the two doors are exactly the same. In this case, it is very difficult to determine which door is the main door and which door is the secondary door.
+ The second case, cannot be considered a house with two main doors, when the house has two doors but is clearly defined in terms of size and function which door is the main door and which door is the secondary door. Normally, the main door will be used as the main entrance for family members, guests visiting the house, arranged on the main axis, designed to be large and beautiful. In many cases, due to the house’s plot having multiple sides facing the street, the owner can install a small door for the convenience of movement in the household, private activities… At that time, arranging the main door and the secondary door in a house is completely normal, if it does not violate some rules regarding the arrangement of doors in the house.
According to feng shui, a house should not have 2 main doors. The homeowner must clearly distinguish which one is the main door and which one is the secondary door. The largest door, the most easily accessible to the main entrance of the house, is the main door.
For houses with 1 main door and 1 secondary door, it must be arranged in the most appropriate way. First, it must be designed according to the funnel principle, the main door is large to attract wind into the house, the secondary door is small to retain energy. Besides, there should also be a common agreement among family members regarding the use of the main door. Next, do not design 2 straight doors, connected to each other. According to feng shui, if 2 doors are arranged like that, it will easily lead to the loss of vital energy, affecting the fortune, health, and wealth of the homeowner and everyone in the family.
A house with 2 main doors is a feng shui taboo for houses
According to ancient people, a house with two doors implies that the members of the family are not harmonious. The reason why a house with 2 doors can cause disharmony within the family is that the accumulated conflicts are not resolved. In families with conflicts, people will enter through different doors to avoid the difficulty of facing each other.
However, the distance from each other is only temporary because this will make the relationships of each member under the same roof more and more conflicting and increase disharmony. Ancient people always valued the peace and harmony of the family as the foundation for prosperity. Therefore, if a family constantly argues, it cannot develop.
In addition, a house with 2 doors is not preferred for scientific and logical reasons as well. Ancient people said that a house with two doors, when there are thieves, this house has an extra way out for them. If the family is small, without door guards, it will easily be invaded by thieves and escape. In the end, the one who suffers the most is the homeowner who can lose property and even endanger their lives.
For these reasons, ancient people avoided building two doors when building a house. Even a small door should not exist. The teachings of the ancients in the current context still retain practical value.
