Vastu Check Points Before Buying a Home
Are you considering purchasing a new home? If so, then indeed it's one of the major and great decisions to buy a home! Besides the price, size, and location, it is also good to consider Vastu Shastra.
Essentially, Vastu Shastra is what is translated to mean "Science of Architecture". The principles and rules incorporate designs and construction to ensure harmonious spaces for living. Take the following details into consideration as the essential points of Vastu to be aware of before buying a property.
1. Entrance of the House
Entrances are of prime importance as per Vastu Shastra. The main entry should be toward the north, northeast, or east, as these are considered to be most auspicious and bring prosperity to the people living within. A well-lit and clutter-free entrance safeguards the people within against negative energies.
2. Room Placement
Insignificant variances in the layout and positioning of different rooms in the house can affect the flow of energy. Some basic rules about room location are as follows:
Living Room: This is the space where maximum time is spent with friends and relatives, by your family or you. It should more particularly be located in the north, east, or northeastern portion of the house. This way, you will ensure maximum sunlight and positive energies on the premises.
Kitchen: The kitchen is to be located at the southeastern corner of the house. In contemporary practice, it is also located in the northwest but should be avoided when it is at the other ends, that is the northeast and southwest corners.
Bedrooms: The master bedroom must reside in the southwest corner. Children's bedrooms are best spread over the west or northwest. The guest bedroom should be in the northwest direction.
Bathrooms and Toilets: Bathrooms and toilets should be set right in the northwest or southeast corner. The best direction for the placement of bathrooms should be in the northwest corner, but not in the northeast. This, if done, can bring in some severe health issues.
3. Pooja Room
The pooja room or the prayer room has a big significance in every abode since it deals with the religious activities of the inmates. According to Vastu, the pooja room is to be placed within the northeast corner of the house since it falls under Ishanya corner, the most auspicious direction for worship. Here are the key points for the pooja room:
Direction: The northeast corner is best, but if not possible, then the east or north direction.
Design and layout: This pooja room should not be dirty, unkempt, and ill-lit. Idols or pictures of deities should face west or east; the person praying should face east.
Materials: Use light colors and wood for constructing the pooja room. Avoid using dark colors and synthetic materials.
Placement of Items: Place the idols at an appropriate height, not directly on the floor. Avoid storing unnecessary items in the pooja room.
4. Shape and Size of the Plot
Size and shape play a huge role in Vastu—starting with the size and shape of the plot on which the house-to-be-built stands. A rectangle or square-shaped plot is considered perfect for it provides balance and stability. The irregularity of the plot may lead to an imbalance in energies and hence affect the well-being of the occupants.
5. Positioning of Staircase
The staircase should face south, west, or southwest. However, ideally, what has to be remembered is that one must always avoid a staircase in the northeast corner, for this blocks positive energies that are supposed to flow into the house. A staircase is, therefore, also preferably done in a clockwise direction.
6. The Placement of Windows and Doors
Windows and doors account for the passage of air and energy in the house. While placing windows and doors, consideration should be made to give allowance for the maximum level of natural light and fresh air. Ideally, windows need to be placed in north and east directions, while the doors need to be in the north, east, or northeast directions.
7. Balcony and Terrace
Having a balcony or terrace in the north, east, or northeast is ideal. These are considered perfect directions with positive energy entering the house from the respective directions. The southwest direction should be strictly avoided for the balcony or terrace.
8. Basement and Storage Area
If the house has a basement, it should face the North, East, or Northeast directions. The basement should be abundantly ventilated and properly lit for a healthy living space. Godowns, lofts, and cupboards should open in the south or west directions only.
9. Water Sources
Water sources should be placed either in the northeast direction and either a well, borewell, or water tank. This also brings about an inflow of positive energy in the house. Water sources in the southwest tend to bring financial instability.
10. Garden and Trees
If a garden is there, it is best in the northwest, northeast, and east. Planting trees and maintaining greenery on these sides brings positive energy and adds to the aesthetic appeal of the house. Big trees can be avoided on the southwest side as they obstruct the flow of energy.
11. Slopes and Elevations
The natural slope of the plot needs to be kept in mind before buying the home. Ideally, the plot is sloping in the direction of the northeast. This is said to ensure that positive energy flows into the home. Try to avoid those plots having slopes toward the southwest, as it is going to lead you to financial losses and health issues.
12. Lighting and Ventilation
Well-lit and well-ventilated houses can do a lot to keep the vitality and optimism of the surroundings, and numerous windows and doors normally give proper aeration and natural lighting. This helps to maintain the smooth flow of positive energy, hence keeping one fit and fine.
13. Electrical and Fire Elements
Vastu also comprises the placement of electrical and fire elements like electrical panels, ovens, stoves, etc., in the abode. The fire element should be placed best in the southeast; for it is the corner associated with the fire element. Electronic and fire elements should not be placed in the northeast corner since it will lead to a clash of energies.
14. Wall Colors and Décor
Energy flow can hugely be influenced by colors and the décor of the house. Bright and soothing colors are known to be in favor of prosperity. The colors that should be used include white, light blue, and light green which encourage a harmonious feel. Dark and dull colors should be avoided that are notorious for creating negativity. At the same time, décor meant for a house should be simple and should not create clutter to have a harmonious living space.
15. Vastu Remedies for Existing Homes
Even after the purchase of a house that does not adhere to the principles of Vastu, there can be various remedial measures to minimize its effect. Here are some common Vastu remedies described:
Vastu Pyramids: These pyramids are placed at different points in the house help to balance out the energies and correct the Vastu defects.
Mirror: When placed properly, it reflects the energy and changes its flow, hereby rectifying the Vastu defects.
Plants: Indoor plants can have a positive contribution to the energy of a home.
Crystals: Crystals help in balancing the energies in most aspects affecting the house.
