Importance
of Vaastu according to Direction
The
Astrological aspects of house construction are
covered under 'Hora Shastra', which recognizes eight
directions instead of four.
The study and practice of these important tips
ensures peace, prosperity and Divine Blessings on
the Dweller.
The
East
Sun,
the head of the solar galaxy has been allotted
governance of the eastern direction. It is
imperative that the rays of this soul-signifying
planet should fall inside the house. If sun’s rays
do not properly illuminate the house, there will
impediments both to the progress of the family as
well as its progeny. That is why the ancestors have
given the prime of place to the eastern door.
Sun
has as his enemies Venus and Dragon’s Head. As
Saturn is Sun’s son, the relationship is medium.
Accordingly if (Sun + Venus) the kitchen is located
to the east of the house, the housewife will suffer
from bilious complaints and nervous debility and
uterine disorders. There will be influx of money to
the family to a large extent. But, the housewife
will have least happiness though she commands all
comforts.
Sun
+ Dragon’s Head : If there is lumber room in the
eastern direction in which discarded materials are
stacked, the owner of the house will meet with
unnatural death failing which he will suffer from
some malign disease. Even if the eastern walls
including window panes are dilapidated the same bad
effects are indicated.
If
there is the couple’s bedroom to the east, the
wife will be of an angry mood. If there is dining
room to the east the owner of the house will have to
face difficulties in achieving progress. There will
be medium good effects. If there is the granary to
the east it is indicated that the head of the family
will have to travel a lot. If there is family cash
box in the east it will ensure auspicious effects.
If
there is a prayer room to the east, it ensures
auspicious effects. The owner will be given to
Divine contemplation and will attain name and fame.
Like this we have to predict taking into
consideration the planetary mutual friendship and
enmities and the directions governed by them.
The
South East
The God of fire
is the presiding deity for this direction and Venus
rules over this direction. As Venus is both
governing planet for wife and husband, there will be
complete independence for the wife in kitchen having
the fire (Fire is the significator of Energy and
power ruled by planet Mars) and this is highly
significant astrologically.
But in the direction of
South East, being ruled by Venus, if there is large
accumulation of food articles being ruled by planet
Moon or if there is too much storage of water there
in the form of the installation of an overhead water
tank, the housewife as also her daughter will suffer
from ill health and will get bad name unnecessarily
or the household expenditure will far exceed the
family income and invariably the owner will have to
incur debts.
The
South
The God of Death is the presiding Deity for
this direction and Mars is the governing Planet. It
is therefore proper that bedroom should be located
here. Husband governing planet Mars and Wife
governing Venus are both friendly to each other. It
is as though the kitchen is the house of exaltation
for Mars and the intensity of fire will be maximum.
By this even Venus can join in the bedroom. But the
husband and wife sleeping together in the kitchen
where Venus (wife governing planet) is the governing
planet is not conducive. In such of the houses where
Kitchen and bedroom are one and the same, the couple
will experience lot of mental unrest (fire). The
husband will be given to fits of anger and the wife
will have to face the brunt of his attack, failing
which the husband will suffer from loss of strength
and weakness.
If the cash or cosmetic articles are
kept in the South direction, there will not be
efflux of income. If the inmates of the house take
their meals in the bedroom located in the South
direction of the house, they will have to face ill
health and suffer from laziness. If they take their
meals actually sitting on the beds it is said that
they will have to face poverty and ill health. If
there is a storage room in which food articles are
stored in the South, there will be
misunderstandings, disputes and quarrels amongst
brothers.
If
old and discarded materials, big tubs, copper
vessels, iron bars, wooden articles etc. are stored
in the bed room, it is indicated that one of the
house owner’s brother will have to face and
overcome difficulties and dangers. Though the house
owner talks with haughtiness, he will be powerless
and there will be an atmosphere of unrest (Mars +
Dragon’s Head), in the family. Further the house
owner will have to face difficulties again and
again.
Even
if in the bedroom there is collection of food
grains, food products and attached bathroom, there
will be ill health to daughters as also for the
husband and wife. The house-wife will have to face
ill health, mental unrest etc. and the husband will
also suffer from lack of mental peace. He will be
always fickle in nature (Mars + Moon).
If
money is kept in the bed room of the couple, there
will be medium good effect (Mars + Venus + Mercury).
It will also apply to the storage of ornaments,
money, silver and gold. But the North direction is
highly auspicious for storing wealth.
Either
having God’s idol in the bedroom or sleeping in
the prayer room indicates stubbornness, anger and
emotional upsets to the house owner. Even if the
bedroom is to East of the house, effects such as
loss of progeny ill health to spouse are indicated.
The
South West
For this direction the Dragon’s Head is
the governing planet. If the main door is facing
this direction the house owner will have mental
upsets as also many kinds of ill health in the
family. However much he earns it will not suffice to
meet the family requirements and further if there is
a well in this direction with dilapidated walls,
there will be visitations by the spirits of the
dead. If there is kitchen over here, the wife will
be highly romantic. If the bedroom, the wife will
have rheumatic ailments and there will also be
monetary income through illegal means and if the
dining room, the inmates will have eye defects,
gastric derangements and the food materials of the
house will be dirty and insipid.
If
food grains are stored here, there will be troubles
due to insects and food stuffs will lack nutrition.
However much the house owner earns it will not
suffice and his mother will suffer from windy and
cold complaints. Further his mind will be beset with
delusion.
If
money and costly articles, ornaments, gold etc., are
stored in this direction, these will have been
acquired by deception, illegal means etc.. If there
is a storage of water in the adjoining room, it
indicates that the youngest brother, sister or
daughter, one of them will travel to distant places
and settle down there. Further, there will be
troubles on account of disembodied spirits and one
of the family members will be possessed by ghosts
and harassed by evil spirits. Money will be wasted
or it will be lost due to treachery. If the prayer
room is located in this direction the owner of the
house will suffer from gastric disturbances and he
will be extremely greedy.
The
West
For this direction profession ruling planet
Saturn and God Neptune will be presiding deities. It
is said that the location of dining room in this
direction is auspicious.
If
the main door is located here, it indicates that the

physical labour of a strenuous nature. However he
will always be dedicated to his duty and being duty
conscious will suffer at the hands of others many
many times, including harassment and also blackmail.

doors, broken walls are located in this direction,
the tenants of the house are extremely slow and lack

The head of the family will have a profession
related to the wicked branch of shadow play, wheel
traffic etc. and there will be constant disputes and
blames in the family.
If
there is storage of food grains in this direction,
the inmates of the family will thrive in the
profession of travel agency, commercial deals etc.

person and prospers in life by wide scale traveling.
If

If

the family head is given to Divine contemplation and
is a preacher of religion but extremely greedy. He

For this direction Moon and God of Wind
are the presiding deities. If the main door is
