Vastu Shastra has always helped people to balance the energy of their home. The energy flow in the house greatly affects you and your loved ones well being. Vastu Shastra helps you to balance positive energy flow with the intricate construction or positioning of assets. Keeping the importance of VastuShastra in mind, here are a few tips to look for while constructing your house or for moving into the already built one.
1. The Entrance
According to Vastu Shastra, the main entrance of your house should face the north, east, or in the north-east direction. The main door to your home should be constructed with superior quality wood. Its hould tower above the other doors in your house, and look the most appealing.
● Avoid placing a fountain, or any other decorative water-centric element, outside the main door.
● Avoid placing a shoe rack or dustbin outside the main door.
● There shouldn’t be a bathroom near the main door.
● Ensure the main entrance is well lit.
● Avoid painting the main door black.
● Decorate your door with beautiful nameplates and auspicious to rans.
● Avoid placing animal statues or figurines near the main door.
● Ensure your main door opens in a clockwise manner.
● Avoid houses with the main door located on the side of the structure. The front door is the main mouth of life-nurturing chi (energy). It is best if the mouth is easy for energy to find. A house with a door on the side is like a face without a mouth.
Look for all these attributes while buying the house or give the makeover to your house if you have recently bought one.
2. Kitchen in the southeast
According to Vastu Shastra, the Lord of Fire—Agni—prevails in the southeast direction of the home, which means that the ideal placement of the kitchen is the southeast direction of your home. If for any reason,you are unable to do so, the north-west direction will work.
3. Living Room Preferences
The living room should face east, north, or north-east. Alternatively, a north-west-facing living room is also favorable. Heavy furniture is suggested in the west or south-west direction of the living room. All electronics and appliances should be installed in the south-east section of the living room. If there is a mirror in the room, ensure it is placed on the north wall.
4. Balance for the Bedroom
Vastu Shastra says that a bedroom in the right place can enhance positive energy and even improve relations between couples. Ideally, the bedroom in a south-west direction brings good health and prosperity. Avoid a bedroom in the north-east or south-east zone of the house as the former may cause health issues, while a bedroom placed in the latter direction may cause quarrels among couples. The bed should be placed in the southwest corner of the bedroom, with your head facing west. Avoid placing a mirror or television in front of the bed. Your reflection must not be seen in a mirror when in bed as it causes fights and other domestic disruptions.Paint your bedroom walls in neutral or earthy shades as it radiates positive energy. Avoid painting your walls black. Avoid having a temple, paintings depicting water, or a fountain in the bedroom as it could cause emotional outbursts. Use mood lighting and burn aromatic oils to create an oasis of calm.
5. Look for Garage facing the street
If you are looking for a garage built into the house, a house with garage doors facing the side or rear of the house is preferable to garage doors facing the street. When garage doors are the main feature of the front of the house, occupants of the house find themselves on the go all the time.
6. Avoid houses that are mostly glass.
It is difficult to place furniture in those houses so that people feel comfortable. People are most comfortable and empowered when they can sit or sleep in spaces where they have a solid wall behind them and a full view of the main door of the room.
The above points can be kept in our mind while constructing a house or buying one. Energy has a lot to do with your healthy mind and body. Therefore Vastu shastra is very important to convert your house into your home.
