Cut Corners: A North-East Cut Is the Worst

A plot with its North-East cut is the worst of all, and a cut South-East is also very bad. A cut North-West brings mental anguish, disputes, loss of mental balance and constant quarrels.

What it does

To judge the cut corners of a plot.

Where

Corners of the plot

Cautions

  • Avoid plots with a cut North-East or South-East

Explanation and notes

A cut means part of a direction is missing from the shape, like a person missing an ear, and it is read from the foundation outline. A cut South-West brings disputes and reduces one's capabilities. If a plot is only slightly short on one side, such as 32 x 31, simply build on an exact 31 x 31 square instead.

Principleवास्तु की परिभाषा

Geo Vastu Definitions of Vastu: Universal Energy, Land and Fortune

Vastu is the name for bringing the energy that pervades the universe to its correct direction and its real location. It is also defined as awakening one's own fortune (bhagya) through the energy of the land, and, for the North-West, as the unobstructed coming and going of air.

Principleअग्नि कोण

South-East (Agni Kon): Lord Agni, Venus, Fame and Cash Flow

The South-East, 45 degrees beyond the East, is ruled by Agni, the hidden fire energy present in every living being. Its planet is Venus (Shukra) and it gives fame and cash flow, so the South-East of a householder's home must never be cut.

Energy Boosting

Diamond Powder Swastik in the South-East to Boost Agni Energy

The acharyas advise placing diamond in the ground of the South-East to increase its power. Where the floor is already built, as in a flat, a swastik drawn with inexpensive diamond chip powder in the South-East serves the same purpose.

Principleयम दिशा

South (Yama): Mars, Coral, Rest, Life and the Realm of Ancestors

The South belongs to Yama, the god of justice and messenger of death, who rides a buffalo and holds a danda (rod). Its planet is Mars (Mangal) and its stone is moonga (coral); it is the zone of complete relaxation and sleep and rules the world of departed ancestors.

Principleनैऋत्य कोण

South-West (Nairitya): Rahu-Ketu, Prosperity, and Keeping It Highest

The South-West is ruled by Nairitya, with Rahu-Ketu as its planets and gomed (hessonite) as its stone. Balanced, uncut and right-angled, it gives prosperity, stability and skill, and it must be the highest part of the property in both ground level and building height, which is why a dhwaj (flag) is raised there.

Principleवरुण दिशा

West (Varun): Saturn, Neelam, Future and Wealth, Strongest After Sunset

The West, 45 degrees beyond the South-West, is ruled by Varun, the lord of water, with Saturn (Shani) as planet and neelam (blue sapphire) as stone. It builds the future and gives prosperity and wealth, and its power is felt after sunset, growing as the night advances.

Principleवास्तु का विभाजन

Division of Vastu: Land Energy 70, Orientation 20, Interior 5, Protection 5

In the Geo Vastu system, the results of a property come 70 percent from land energy (the earth element), 20 percent from orientation and the main door, 5 percent from the interior and 5 percent from vastu protection. Land energy must therefore be checked first, because good orientation on weak land gives no result.
