Toilet Placement Across Zones: Preferred, Conditional and Forbidden

Vedic vastu never put toilets inside the house; today they go where positive energy ends. SSW is the main toilet zone, WNW and a well-ventilated NW are acceptable, ESE only in an emergency with a south-facing seat, and a toilet in any energy zone such as the NE brings serious harm.

What it does

Locates an unavoidable indoor toilet with the least damage.

Where

SSW first; then WNW or a ventilated NW; ESE only in an emergency

How to do it

  1. 1Prefer the SSW
  2. 2Next use the WNW, or the NW if the air has a strong way out (ventilation)
  3. 3Use the ESE only in an emergency, with the seat facing South
  4. 4Never build a toilet in NE, ENE, NNE, N, NNW, E, SE, SSE, S, SW, WSW or W

Cautions

  • In ESE a seat facing East makes it equal to a North-East toilet
  • A closed, unused toilet still gives its full bad effect, because a built toilet is itself a figure (aakriti)

Explanation and notes

Effects by zone: East, defame and loss of everything; SE, instability and a spoiled Venus; SSE, weak willpower; South, illness; SW, the same results as a NE toilet and broken relationships; WSW, children lose concentration; West, loss of money; NNW, relationships spoil; North, loss in business; NNE, diseases; NE and ENE, health, wealth and peace are destroyed. For the last 25 to 50 years toilets have had to be inside the house; earlier they were built outside and never attached to the house boundary.

Basis of Interior Planning: Goal, Kundali, Current Flow and Planet Yogas

Before any interior, fix the goal of the space, study the owner's kundali, check the current (energy) flow and base every arrangement, colour and artifact on planet combinations. Harmful yogas of the kundali must never be recreated with artifacts, while good yogas should be built.

Chitra se Chitta: Pictures and Portraits at Home Shape Emotions

Interior vastu is emotion and action controlled by the interior: what the eye sees daily at home changes the mind. Pictures of God and loving family scenes bring good thoughts, while vulgar, violent or sorrowful images change emotions at once.

Principleतत्व मैत्री

Element Friendship and Enmity Chart (Tatva Maitri) for Interiors

Humans are made of four working elements, water, earth, fire and air; nobody belongs to the space element alone. Water and earth are friends, fire and air are friends, water and fire are enemies, earth and air are enemies, while water-air and earth-fire are sam-mitra (neutral friends).

Principle

Element Matching for Marriage, Business Partnership and Friendship

The element friendship chart is also the basis of compatibility: two people of the same element or of friendly elements (water with earth, fire with air) keep a heart-to-heart bond. Compare the rashi elements of both before a marriage, partnership or close friendship.

Finding Your Element from the Moon Sign (Janma Rashi)

A person's element comes from the janma rashi, the rashi number written with the Moon (Cha) in the kundali. Writing the 12 rashis in order under Fire, Earth, Air and Water gives each element three rashis.
