Hi, Marielena. The distinction discussed in the newsletter is between the facing direction (the mountain) and the 9-grid area of the door. A door that faces W could be located in many areas of the house, W, NW, SW, or really anywhere. If a door faces W and is in the W the yearly disaster star is that much stronger. If a door faces W but is in the NW then the yearly disaster star is tempered by the relationship star in the NW but the disaster energy still impacts the home or workplace.
Using your W front door, even though it's in the SW, will still activate the disaster energy. And remember that the 9 star is in the SW which doubles whatever it falls on. So you actually have double disaster there plus double whatever your Period stars are. Keep using your East door.
