Meaning and Context
Compass Directions is an encyclopedia term in Feng Shui spatial analysis. It names a specific layer of the system; read it by checking orientation, luopan sector, nine-palace position, qi flow, building use, and room function, then compare it with Luopan (Feng Shui Compass), Twenty-Four Mountains, Sitting and Facing, Bagua (Eight Trigrams) so the entry explains what the term means before it becomes advice.
Source Context
Compass Directions belongs to the vocabulary of Feng Shui spatial analysis. A source-aware note should first define the system layer, then show which evidence is checked (orientation, luopan sector, nine-palace position, qi flow, building use, and room function) and only after that describe practical use or cautions.
How It Works
To understand Compass Directions, identify its system layer and compare Luopan (Feng Shui Compass), Twenty-Four Mountains, Sitting and Facing, Bagua (Eight Trigrams). The practical question is not whether the word appears, but what orientation, luopan sector, nine-palace position, qi flow, building use, and room function says in this case and how much weight that evidence deserves.

In FateFolio
In a FateFolio Feng Shui analysis, Compass Directions should be used as an explanatory anchor: define the term, show the observed evidence from orientation, luopan sector, nine-palace position, qi flow, building use, and room function, and point to the next related section rather than turning the term into a one-line verdict.
