A house has its entry in the Agni kon (South-East), an underground water tank in the South-East with the stairs over it, and the slope running to the South. The family fights constantly. What is the remedy?

Either leave the house or treat it: close the South-East underground water tank immediately and correct the slope. The staircase can stay. An overhead tank in the South-East is acceptable.

Is the entry of a basement counted where the stairs reach below or at the top?

The entrance is counted where the door begins, so the basement entry is counted from the top.

Can a septic tank be placed under the stairs?
Can an overhead tank be built over the staircase?

Only if the stairs are in the North-West; otherwise not. Basically an overhead tank should not be built over the stairs, because hydro currents move as you walk below it and the mind becomes unsettled.

Is a staircase going downward in front of the main door a dwar vedh?

Yes, stairs right in front of the main door are wrong even when they go downward.

In a flat, if the stairs are in the anti-clockwise direction of the house, is it a vedh?

It is a dosh, not a vedh. Stairs carry the geopathic currents from below up the building; a current moving clockwise grows while one moving anti-clockwise is lost, just as spinning clockwise and anti-clockwise feel very different.

Do stairs matter when marking the ati marma points?

Stairs play no role in the marking itself; the points are found from the plot and the devtas wherever the stairs are. But no staircase, no column and ideally not even a wall should stand on an ati marma. These points should be left empty.

In a flat, if part of the shape is cut by the stairs or lift, how is that part treated?

The flat is the part you actually enter and use. Once inside, your movement and work happen only in that area, so the part you cannot access, taken by the stairs, lift or the neighbouring flat, is a cut in your flat.

With the East-North-East missing and the North-East cut because of a staircase, where should a convex mirror be placed?

Put the mirror for the zone that is missing. Fixed so that it works from inside towards outside, it extends and enlarges that missing space.

Can a staircase be built in the East?

No. Nobody has the courage to stop the Sun's rays, and whatever blocks them is ruined, so no staircase or high structure in the East.

Stairs represent Mercury and Mercury lives in the North, so why should stairs not be built in the North?

Every structure represents a planet, the roof Rahu and the stairs Mercury, but a heavy staircase in the North suppresses the North and with it Mercury. Stairs in the North cause loss of career and of magnetic attraction and end opportunities, so they are not built there.

If stairs have to be built in the North out of compulsion, how should they be made?

Leave some space in the North and build the stairs of wood, since wood also represents Mercury and is light. If a cement structure is unavoidable, leave even more space. Never make them anticlockwise or spiral: anticlockwise and rounded stairs should not be built anywhere in the house.
