My Mercury is debilitated in the 4th house with an exalted Venus; will plants in the North cause a problem?
No problem at all. Flowering plants represent Mercury, so keeping them in the North strengthens a weak Mercury. Keep up good work such as paying for poor children's education and sharing knowledge.

A peace lily was planted twice at home and did not survive. Is there a dosh?
Yes. Plants are the most sensitive testers and signal earthquakes and accidents in a house in advance. White hibiscus and tulsi react at once to negativity, and a failing peace lily shows negativity in the house. Remove the negativity and the peace lily will start growing by itself.
If a house has four members, whose kundli should be used for its vastu?
Primarily the grih swami's, the person whose money is going into the house, because the house affects the owner and his next three generations; do not go by the name the property is registered in, such as a daughter. The facing and main door are chosen from the grih swami's chart, for example North if his Mercury is exalted or his North-side planets are strong. Where a child sleeps or studies is decided from the child's own chart: if the child's Mercury is weak, seat him in the South instead of the North, following the 180-degree rule for a weak planet.
If a planet's colour (for example Mercury's) cannot be used in its zone, can the colours of its friends or of the zone element's friends be used?
First see what Mercury is in your chart (exalted, bhagyesh or lagnesh, which supports health) and where it sits. If its own colour cannot be used in that zone, use the colours of Mercury's friends, and the colours of the friends of that zone's element must also be taken.
If the North is completely closed, can plants be kept overhead or on the terrace?
