Personally, I think it's better to sit in the south and sit in the north, because the direction of the fire is south, so it's better for you to stand in this direction instead of facing it. For example, if four people play mahjong and it happens that today is the third or fourth day, and the god of wealth is in the west, then most people will suggest that you sit on the west side of the mahjong table. Nobody told you to sit facing east and west, and neither did the house.
Another thing to add is that as long as your door faces south, don't put curtains on your bedroom, otherwise it will be bad for you.
