Principleलाभेश
11th Lord (Labhesh) Colour and Shop Direction for Profit
The 11th house rules gains; use the colour of its lord for business, and choose a shop or office in the direction where that lord sits in the chart.
Principle
32 Outer Devtas of the 81 Pad Grid: 11.25 Degrees Each
The 81 pad grid, used for any house, factory, business or office, has 32 devtas (the 32 digpal) seated around its outer ring in the pishach bhoomi. One round covers 360 degrees, so each outer pad covers 360 divided by 32, that is 11.25 degrees, and half a pad 5.625 degrees.
Principle
4th Lord Colour for Home Comfort and Peace of Mind
The 4th house rules the comforts of home, vehicle and peace of mind, so the colour of its lord should be chosen for the home interior.
Principleपंचमेश
5th Lord (Panchmesh) Colour for the Study Room and Education
The 5th house rules knowledge, study, children and name; a study room should be painted in the colour of its lord.
Principle
81-Pada Grid for Homes and Business, 64-Pada for Temples, Villages and Cities
Both grids hold the same 45 vastu devtas, but the 81-pada mandala is used for homes and business premises while the 64-pada mandala is used for temples, villages, palaces (raj mandir), towns and city gates.
Principleभाग्येश
9th Lord (Bhagyesh) Colour for Luck
The colour of the 9th lord, the lord of fortune, can be used throughout life whenever luck is needed, even if that lord sits in the 6th, 8th or 12th house.
Principle
A Big River to the South of a Temple Makes It a Mahatirth
Raj Vallabh states that a temple with a large river flowing to its South becomes not merely a tirth but a mahatirth, because for a temple the water element stands for peace. Rules made for homes must not be applied mechanically to temples.
Principle
A Low South, South-West and West Upsets Saturn and Skills
The South, South-West and West build skill and capability. When the land there is low and the construction in these zones is also the lowest, skills and Saturn (Shani) turn against the owner, and the business does not get the wealth and opportunities it should.
Principle
A New Door Must Suit the Owner's Running Dasha
A door that strengthens one element can ruin an owner whose running planetary period belongs to the opposite element. A new door that raised the fire element was opened for a sweet maker while his Moon (water) antardasha was running, and water and fire, being anti-elements, brought his business to zero.
Principle
A Pit in the Brahmasthan Never Does Good
A pit in the Brahmasthan (centre) of a plot always harms it. In the factory studied, a pit had been dug roughly at the Brahmasthan of the whole land.
Principleप्लॉट का शेप
A Plot's Shape Is Set by Its Foundation (Plinth Beam), Not by Projections
The shape of a building is the shape in which its plinth beam and foundation (neev, bunyaad) are laid in the ground, because the underground geopathic current runs in that shape. Balconies and chhajjas projecting above do not change the shape.
Principle
A Tilted Wall Keeps the Occupant Ill and Troubled
A wall that leans even slightly unbalances the gravitational force in the room; the person who sleeps there stays ill and troubled, has bad dreams and does not sleep well.
Principleघटना द्वार
Accident and Government Trouble Doors by Main Door Pad
Certain main door pads bring particular mishaps: road, fire and electrical accidents, raids, government trouble, illness and labour strikes.
Principleवायु तत्व
Air Element (Vayu Tatva): Attributes, Zone and Effects in the House
The air element is flag-shaped, green, located in the North-West and ruled by Saturn; in a house it is the main door, windows, balcony, garden, plants and floor-to-slab height. Balanced, it gives speed, courage, patience and risk-taking capacity; imbalanced, it delays every work.
Principleवायु तत्व
Air Element: Flag Shape, Green, North-West, Kansa
In Vedic vastu (not feng shui) the air element has a flag-like shape, green colour, North-West location and kansa (bell metal) as its metal; the main door, windows, balcony, garden, plants and floor-to-slab height represent it.
Principle
An Element Is Never Excessive in Its Own Zone: Fire in the South-East
The zone of an element can bear any amount of that element, so increasing fire in the South-East or South-South-East does not bring theft, fire or accidents, just as raising the South-West only strengthens its earth element.
Principle
An Open North-East Porch or Parking Is Not a Cut
When a plot has its boundary wall on all sides and the North-East is left open as a porch or parking, the plot is not cut. The North-East is meant to stay open to the sky, with less construction.
Principle
Ancestor (Pitru) Photos Face South, Never in Bedroom or Drawing Room
Photos of departed family members (with garlands) should face South, the direction of Yama; they can hang in the South, SW, SSW or WSW zone, but never in a bedroom or drawing room.
Principle
Ancient Branches of Vastu
Vastu was traditionally divided into eight branches, among them griha (home), yantra, nagar (town), bhoomi (land), prasad (temple), vimaan (aircraft) and udyan (garden and tree) Vastu. None of them advises demolition.
Principle
Anti-clockwise Stairs Are a Dosh: Stairs Carry Earth Currents Upward
Stairs carry geopathic currents from below up through the building; stairs that turn clockwise increase the current, while stairs that turn anti-clockwise cause loss.
Principle
Anti-Element Colours Matter Only When the Whole Room Is That Colour
A colour counts as an anti-element only when the entire room or zone is done in it; a small item of about 10 percent of the volume creates no dosh.
Principle
Astro Vastu: Choose Facing, Rooms and Door by the Owner's Horoscope
No facing is good or bad for everyone. The direction of the house, the main door and each room are chosen from the owner's horoscope, so that the person lives in the zone of his strongest planet and avoids the zones of weak or afflicted planets.
Principleस्वग्रही, केंद्र और त्रिक भाव
Astro-Vastu Basics: Benefic and Malefic Planets, Swagrahi, Kendra and Trik Bhav
Before planning an interior from a kundali, know which planets are malefic, when a planet is swagrahi or exalted, which houses are kendra and trik, and which side of the chart is each direction.
Principleअति मर्म स्थल
Ati Marma: Nine Vital Points of the Plot That Must Stay Free
Ati marma are the nine most sensitive points of the Vastu grid, formed where six devta-to-devta lines cross. In a regular, proportionate plot almost all of them fall in the Brahmasthan, and any piercing, load or dirt on them blocks the energy of the whole plot and brings severe, lasting trouble, above all to the owner (griha swami).
Principle
Avoid Colours and Items of Your Debilitated Planet in the Interior
Before doing an interior, get the birth chart analysed: heavy use of the colours, materials or showpieces of a debilitated (neech) planet becomes the biggest trouble, and items unknowingly put in a wrong zone can suddenly bring unrest, disease and failure.
Principle
Avoid Dead-End and T-Junction Plots
Never select a plot at a dead end, such as the last house of a colony, town or lane, especially when high boundary walls close it in, and never select one on a T-junction.
Principle
Avoid Fly Ash Bricks: Ash Counts as Shalya
Ash of any kind, including thermal power plant fly ash, is treated as shalya (an impure defect, like buried bone). However good the Vastu structure, sun rays falling on fly ash bricks reflect onto the occupants and affect them negatively.
Principleराख की ईंट
Avoid Fly Ash Bricks: Ash Is Treated as Shalya
Bricks made from thermal plant fly ash mixed with sand and adhesive materials are wrong according to Vedic vastu, which likens ash (raakh) to shalya (an impurity such as bones buried in land).
Principleमरघट, जमघट, धोबी घाट
Avoid Land Near Cremation Grounds, Dhobi Ghats, Police Stations and Hospitals
Land near a cremation ground (marghat), crowded gathering places (jamghat), gambling or satta dens, a dhobi ghat, a liquor shop, a police station or a large hospital should not be taken even free. The energy of such places enters the body with the breath and changes health, emotions and behaviour.
