North Facing homes are good according to Vastu Shastra?

Vastu Shastra Consultancy Before A New House Or Property In Delhi

Vastu Shastras contain a wealth of information regarding the placement of each room and object within a home in order to achieve the healthiest and most auspicious living. Experts in Vastu claim that residences facing north are the most desired because north is the direction of Kuber (God of wealth). However, the overall architecture and decor must be in accordance with Vastu Shastras in order to fully enjoy the advantages of a north-facing home.

We always advise working with a Vastu specialist before purchasing a home in Delhi, but to get you started, here are some essential Vastu rules for north-facing homes.

 

Main Door

Simply put, a house with a north-facing door is one that faces north. To be more specific, each direction is divided into nine equal halves, or "padas," and the fifth "pada" is said to be the most fortunate for the main entryway. If the fifth "pada," however, is not accessible, any other portion will work.

Master Bedroom

The master bedroom should ideally face southwest, but if that is not possible, any other direction—aside from the northeast—is acceptable.

Children’s Room

The ideal directions for a children's bedroom are east, north-east, or northwest; north is the second-best choice. Make sure that the children's study table is positioned so that it faces north, northeast, or east.

Home Office

The north orientation is ideal for the home office as well, since it is considered fortunate and attracts prosperity and success. It is suggested that your desk be clear of clutter and that you sit facing a wall.

Staircase

Avoid at all costs heading up the stairs in the north and north-east directions. The directions south-east, south-west, north-west, south, and west are acceptable, but stairs must always turn clockwise.

Pooja Room

North-east, east, and west are good directions to the pooja room. Building a temple in the west can be a pretty great arrangement because it is typically advised that deities face in the east direction for Indian temples. A sacred item should only be kept in the Pooja room and should not be dispersed throughout the home.

Kitchen

The optimal kitchen placement for residences facing north is in the southeast, south, or southwest. Generally speaking, the northeast is a desirable direction for kitchens as well, but in the case of homes facing north, it should be avoided as much as possible.

 

Bathroom

Bathrooms and/or septic tanks are typically located on the front of properties for convenience, but in the case of homes facing north, this can have a number of adverse consequences on the occupants. When building bathrooms or septic tanks, take into account the south of the southwest and the east of the southeast regions.

Garage

Many individuals might believe that a garage facing north is the only practical direction for a property with a parking lot; however, having a garage facing north can be detrimental to the residents' mental health. It is preferable to have a garage or parking space facing northeast or southeast.

Conclusion

Other features of Vastu in a north-facing home include minor architectural adjustments like lowering the height of the boundary walls slightly in the north and east directions. The walls on the north and east sides are suitable for lighting fixtures and bring good energy. A Vastu-Kalash positioned in the northeast is thought to be beneficial for increasing positivity in the home.

You can invite luck and positivity into your houses by making the entire structure Vastu-compliant. Following Vastu guidelines in accordance with your home's directions is useful even for properties that don't face north.
