We all dream of owning our sapno ka ghar. But when you decide to move into your dream house, you must arrange things in your home from windows to doors and even furniture in such a way that it gives off positive vibes. So, today, we’re here to shine the light on front doors and their importance in Feng Shui. To help you out, we’re armed with some important tips from Master Dr Vani Kabir - a trusted spiritualist, psychic medium, and prodigy of magic.

With over 12,000 readings under her belt, Dr Kabir is the founder of the Vani Kabir Multiverse. As it happens, she has actively been practising Feng Shui in homes, offices, and hotels to create peaceful energy spaces for abundance and harmony in the lives of those who own them. The main entry is the portal of energy in our homes, so, it’s not surprising that in Feng Shui, one of the first places to look at in our home is the front door. 

A front door should be strong to welcome positive energy and to allow qi to flow easily into your home, as this energy brings along abundance and ease. You must ensure that the entrance is clearly defined, assess the surrounding environment, is well lit, and inviting. Do watch out for big trees, utility posts, or roads, which send negative energies into your home. Ideally, you donʼt want it to be located in front of a cemetery, a crossroad, bar, or any disruptive establishment.

The reason why so much emphasis is laid on the front door is that it is considered the mouth of the house. This is where the house intakes energy, whether they are good or bad. So, when the house takes in positive vibes, the occupants will enjoy a comfortable life. Not to mention, the front door frames your first sight as you leave and enter the house. It is like a first impression and it impacts the mentality, mood, and attitude of how you start the day and how you feel when you get home.

However, the colour of the front door is equally important. There are separate colours that you should ideally follow for front doors facing different directions. If you have a North-facing door, it is recommended to paint it black as it instils positive energy and a renewed connection to nature; or even blue as it brings serenity and tranquillity. For an East-facing door, it is recommended to have green, grey, or brown front doors, as they renew your connection to nature and are believed to evoke feelings of balance, vibrancy, and good fortune.

For a South-facing door, red is the perfect choice as it’s regarded as the colour of prosperity in Feng Shui . While a front door facing West, white, metallic colours, or metal doors are recommended. As such, a subtitle of a wooden door with metal hangings can also do well for precision, communication, and happiness.

However, it’s also equally important to activate your front doors! For this, you must ensure the space is decluttered and clean, brightened (keep the light fixtures clean so that the light can shine through), clear the path leading up to your house, beautify your front door, keep plants at the front door (especially jade for prosperity and growth, and a snake plant to ward off evil and negativity), and keep the main door protected. For the last one, you can keep FU dogs at the entrance, as these ancient lion symbols protect the health, wealth and harmony of the ones living in the house.

If these guidelines sound interesting and you’re curious about other important aspects of your home, then don’t forget to book a consultation with Master Dr Vani Kabir. We’re sure your sapno ka ghar will be brimming with positive energy in no time!
