Interior colours are selected in three ways: from the kundali (the planets ruling education, business, wealth and luck), from the element of the zone (its own colour or a friendly element colour), and from the work done in the space.
Every room, the office and the building elevation
Solid wooden flooring is the best, ceramic tiles suit business, vitrified tiles are acceptable, and laminate (melamine, a petroleum by-product) should be avoided.
Flooring of homes and businesses
Each direction has colours that suit it and colours to avoid, based on the friendship and enmity of the planets ruling the zones.
All directions of a home or office
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.
Teak is the best furniture wood, ideally with a little sandalwood mixed in and joined with wooden pegs or copper or brass nails. Asan wood drives away negativity and disease, while tendu must never be used and mango must never be used for a bed.
Furniture and beds throughout the home
A clock represents Mercury, so it is hung on the North wall; on other walls it delays work. Every home needs working clocks, never stopped ones, and a small running clock in the safe increases the effect of Mercury.
North wall; tijori
Trees and plants capture about 90 percent of the solar energy that reaches the earth and give it out through the day, so every home needs indoor plants in galleries and around the living areas. Fruit-bearing trees must stay outside, and no plant goes in the bedroom.
Galleries and living areas inside; fruit trees in the outer garden
The North-East is the seat of Jupiter. Its interior uses ivory and white with golden yellow, gold or gold-polished artifacts, topaz or citrine, auspicious symbols such as Ashtamangal, Nandyavart and the mangal kalash, and white or yellow flowering plants.
North-East (ishaan)
The South belongs to Mars. Its interior uses a small share of red with pink, orange, ivory and light green, copper, coral, ruby and red quartz, paintings of high mountains, a red horse or red elephant, a rock garden and Mars plants.
South zone
The North belongs to Mercury. Its interior uses green with blue, ivory and white, Kota stone, green marble or limestone, emerald-family minerals, flowers and fragrance, Kuber and water pictures, a bandanwar, clay artifacts and a small library.
North zone
The North-West is the seat of the Moon and of Vayu (air). Its interior uses white and ivory, pearls, white stone and a little white marble, pictures of water creatures and the full Moon, and moon-loving plants.
North-West zone
Every item, colour and activity belongs to a planet, so its items can go in the zone of that planet or of a friend planet but must be kept apart from enemy planets. Working through these combinations lets you design your own remedies.
The South-West is the zone of Rahu-Ketu. Its interior uses golden yellow, white or ivory, black stone, blue sapphire, amethyst and iron, a Nandi, awards and certificates, mountain and village sceneries, and tall outdoor trees.
South-West; tall trees outdoors in the South and South-West
The West is the zone of Saturn and the place of Varun. Its interior uses light blue with white or ivory, black stone, blue sapphire, amethyst and iron, a tortoise, floodlights, bells and camel figures, and plants such as lotus and raatrani.
West zone
The East belongs to the Sun. Its interior uses light orange, greens, pink, yellow and ivory white, sandstone, copper or gold-polished showpieces, sunrise pictures and sun-loving plants.
East zone and East wall; garden to the East
The South-East belongs to Venus. Its interior uses pink and light green, amethyst or blue sapphire, a pyramid and a sword for fire, kitchen-garden sceneries, fine curtains, decoration, toys and shining items, and Venus plants.
South-East; curtains and decor throughout the home
Curtains please the mind and also affect the planets, so their colour is chosen by the kundli, the element and the zone where they hang. For a business, take the colour of a supporting planet among the 10th, 9th, 11th or 2nd house lords, or else the 5th lord.
Doors and windows of every room; business premises
Curtains should be in two (or four) parts, always an even number because they represent the Chandra swar; they should end 1 to 2 inches above the floor and never carry violent animals or a design of the opposite element.
All doors and windows
A family photo should show everyone full length with smiling faces, and the faces of the living must turn to the North, the living direction; NNW suits family attraction, but the direction the faces look matters more than the wall.
Any wall (NNW suits family attraction) as long as the faces look North
Interior work done without vastu can ruin a business even when all directions are correct: anti-element materials and colours, the most harmful (marak) colour of the owner's kundli, or a main table placed with zero aay all cause losses. Symbols, swastiks and corrected colours can restore it.
Whole office or home
A mandna is a traditional drawn figure whose shape and colours pull cosmic energy and create a field of energy, so each element has its own mandna to balance an imbalanced zone. They work in industrial, commercial and residential buildings.
Wall of the zone whose element is imbalanced
Square and rectangular mirrors are very good, but triangular and pointed-end mirrors are harmful, and mirrors cut into small pieces for scenery or glass temples (kaanch mandir) turn an auspicious item into an inauspicious one.
Whole house and interiors
Several popular fancy-vastu items are not recommended: aluminium wind chimes pollute the air, the laughing Buddha and bamboo flutes under beams are myths, pig figures make no sense, and idols showing only a face or a half-cut deity are wrong.
Entrance and living areas
Paintings split into joined pieces, dry or cut trees, cut photos, mirrors touching the floor, swastik or Om on the floor, crying women, screaming animals, scenes of anger, crime or the Mahabharata, and God without feet should not be kept at home.
Whole house
This is a subject of astro vastu. Different items represent different planets; if a planet is very negative in your kundli and you keep the item that represents it, the negativity grows further. Which item suits which home, and with what, is covered in interior vastu.
No. The element relationships are taught in much more detail in interior vastu, including the cases where two elements come together in one place.
Colours are taught in interior vastu; do not get confused now and focus on what is being taught.
No problem. As taught in interior vastu, make one symbolically, and if that is not possible, make a figure (picture) of it.
All 45 devta places cannot be left empty, or there would be nowhere to live or keep things in a house or flat. The Vedic texts say to protect the ashtamansh (one-eighth part of the pad); wooden items kept on any devta's place, even on a marma, are not counted as a dosh, because wood does not sink in water but floats. Besides, the devta's place lies beneath us, and the devta is basically a particular energy.
Yes. Water stored anywhere, including on the roof, represents the water element. But if the tank is built in a square shape, it moves to the earth element, because the square is the earth element's shape, and it becomes an earth combination.
Decide room by room. In your own bedroom use the materials of your exalted planet and not of your debilitated one; your daughter's bedroom is designed from her kundli. The house facing and common areas such as the drawing room and kitchen are decided from the grih swami's kundli. Many people make the master bedroom in the South-West by default, which is wrong when Rahu is debilitated: such people suffered there and got very good results after moving to another direction.
Adi Brahma (Adi Prabhu) gave each son a different knowledge: Bharat received arthashastra, Bahubali kaam neeti and Ayurveda, Vrishabhsen gandharva shastra (music and instruments), and Anant Vijay all the arts of painting, colour, brushwork and artefacts. Anant Vijay is therefore the source of interior knowledge, which he spread further, and Vishwakarma received the knowledge of vastu.
Because the interior changes colours, furniture directions, tiles and artefacts without regard to the owner's element and planets. Often the colours belong to the element opposite to the owner's, artefacts are combined wrongly, or harmful adhesives, lights and lead-based paints are used. One client who spent 60 to 80 lakh on an interior saw his loans turn NPA and his wife leave; his whole house had been painted in the colours of his opposite element.
No. Interior is done to use the maximum energy of the universe, balance the five elements, control particular emotions and achieve a particular goal. Every painting, artefact, idol, colour and orientation changes the mind through images (chitra se chitt), so the interior itself can balance the five elements, the nine planets and the three forces of a home, temple or factory.
It is the height from the floor up to the ceiling (slab) of the room.
Yes, move to the second, third and further options. As a professional, give the client a written list: the first option according to the kundali and element, then the second, third, fourth and fifth options. This is covered with kundalis in the diploma.
