Thank you for reply, Shawn. very helpful. I tend to get a little AR
But you do lead to another question. I am in the east group, so NW or NE are not positive directions for me to face.
The practice is to sit facing the altar twice a day, length of time is a personal decision. usually it is only 20 minutes, but I prefer to be there longer when possible, and on "campaigns" for as much as a couple hours or more at a time. Does it matter if I am not facing one of my good directions for this purpose? Will I be more supported by facing one of my directions?

Thanks!
