Feng Shui Door - Take This Short Quiz to Test Your Knowledge...Do You Know Good Front Door Feng Shui?

Welcome to this short Feng Shui door quiz! If you aren't familiar with why doors are important in Feng Shui, you will by the time you finish this quiz! Take this simple multiple choice test below and learn the basics of good door Feng Shui.

1.)  Which of these choices is one of the most important in Feng Shui, when it comes to the front door of your house?

a. The front door should be well lit

b. The pathway to the door should be clear and without obstacles.

c. The front door should be painted a color that stands out.

The correct answer is choice “b”. The front door is often described in Feng Shui as the “mouth of Chi” because it is the primary location where energy enters your home or office.

Because the door is the “mouth”…similar to the way we take food into our bodies for energy and vitality, your home needs to be able to “take in” the proper energetic nutrients as well! If the path leading to your home is blocked by obstacles, clutter or children’s toys…(imagine any tripping hazard)…then it is more difficult for Chi to enter.

This means that your home is going to be depleted of vital energy…which can translate to health problems, blocks to acquiring wealth and a host of other problems. Choice “a” is also an important consideration, but not as important as having a clear and unobstructed path to your door.

2.)  Which color is one of the best choices for painting your  front door?

a.      Red

b.      Blue

c.       White

The correct answer is choice “a”. Red is commonly referred to as the “Feng Shui power color” and as such is a top color choice for your front door. Another way the Chinese describe this is “the lucky red door”. Red is strongly associated with good fortune, high energy and embodies strong protection attributes. Other good door choices are green and black.

3.) Which of these are considered front door problems in Feng Shui?

      a. A front door with squeaky hinges

      b. Door scrapes on the floor when opened

      c. Door doesn’t latch properly

      d. All of the above

The correct choice is “d”…all of the above. If your door’s hinges are squeaky, it causes a subliminal distraction to occur, and can also subliminally represent ‘scary’.

Many suspense thrillers have scenes and sound effects of squeaking doors…so whether you’re aware of it or not, hearing those squeaky hinges has a way of taking you into a little bit of a fearful mindset, whether the ghosts are real or not. Best cure: Household 3 in 1 oil or replace old hinges!

A front door that scrapes on the floor or carpet means there’s more effort involved when it comes to opening the door to your home. Energetically, this means the flow of Chi is slowed down in a negative way…directly affecting the ‘mouth of Chi’ we touched upon earlier.

This can be especially problematic when it comes to keeping a steady flow of income into your home. Check your front door and make sure that it open and closes freely, without touching the floor.

A door that doesn’t latch properly is not only annoying, it could mean you’re having problems completing projects or having trouble being decisive…you make a decision and then have to rethink the situation again a second time because you’re unsure of yourself.

A door that doesn’t latch solidly can make you feel insecure...whether you're consciously aware or not, which is never good Feng Shui.

Check all the hardware on your front door – is the door knob working well without problems? Fix all hardware related problems you find with your front door as soon as you find them. Don’t procrastinate – it’s THAT important!

Thanks for taking this short quiz to test your Feng Shui door knowledge – take action today and pay special attention to your front door!
