How to Take Your Compass Reading

Once you are ready to go with your magnetic compass of choice, here are the steps for taking your reading for feng shui purposes.

1. Stand in the formal front door of your home facing out the door.
2. Hold the compass flat, so it’s parallel to the floor, pointing out the front door.
3. Determine what direction you are facing and write down the direction and degrees.
4. Step back further into the home and take a few more readings. Take at least three readings.
5. Review and average the readings to determine the magnetic direction and degrees facing out your front door.
6. It’s helpful to make sure there are no large magnetic or metal objects near you when you take your readings.

After you determine your directions, you can use an accurate floor plan to super-impose eight equal pie pieces. Each pie piece is a sector that relates to a direction for a compass bagua layout. The center of the home will be where all the points of the pie pieces meet. 

• North sector is Kan, water element
• Northeast sector is Gen, yang earth element 
• East sector is Zhen, yang wood element
• Southeast sector is Xun, yin wood element
• South sector is Li, fire element
• Southwest sector is Kun, yin earth element
• West sector is Dui, yin metal element
• Northwest sector is Qian, yang metal element

• North is at 0 degrees. 
• East is at 90 degrees
• South is at 180 degrees
• West is at 270 degrees.
