When a person has no money and cannot demolish or install anything, a simple number yantra written on the wall with kesar using a pomegranate (anar) twig pen balances the element of that zone, and the work starts running.
Wall of the zone whose element is out of balance
When an underground tank, boring or dug well cannot be made in the water element zone, a moon-shaped symbol of water or a metal representing the Moon placed there creates the water element.
North to North-East zone
Where the air element is disturbed, for example in a rented flat that causes gastric trouble, use green colour in the North-West, put up a flag (dhwaj) there, preferably a five-element flag, and open the North-West with a window.
North-West zone
A moon made of silver (chandi ka chandrama) placed in the North-East creates the water element there and gives results.
North-East zone
For a door in a bad position, five potlis of yellow mustard are made in the five colours of the five elements and hung at the door, hidden behind mango leaves or a mango-leaf bandanwar. This reduces the door's defect to the minimum.
At a door in a wrong pad such as E1, E3, E6, E7 or E8, or any other defective door position
The dehleez (threshold) represents the earth element; when the main door has been made at a wrong place, building a high dehleez stabilises it and balances the earth element.
Main door at a wrong location
Fire and water in the kitchen should be at least four feet apart; when they are closer, stand a vertical slab of the same platform stone between them.
Kitchen platform, between burner and sink
A solid cube-shaped platform (chabutra) built in the South-West corner balances the earth element and Rahu-Ketu, which in turn balances the entire house.
SSW, SW or WSW corner
A mandna designed for the air element is drawn when the air element in the North-West is imbalanced.
North-West wall
When problems in a factory or business keep growing and the home faces quarrels, disputes and court cases with trouble in every task, an arrow-like earth element mandna is made; it melts the problems away.
An earth element mandna in golden yellow with white (water, the friend of earth), light yellow inside and a dark orange centre is drawn when there is a defect in the South-West.
South-West
If the fire element is imbalanced a factory will not run and business stops, and lighting a fire is not always possible, so a fire element mandna (containing a swastik) is made in the South-East.
South-East (fire element zone)
A peacock mandna representing the air element (vayavya) in green, white and orange is used where there is a defect from the West to the North-West.
West to North-West
A special earth element mandna with a swastik is used in industries and homes where there is no stability at all; it is placed in the South-West, SSW or WSW and may go up to the West.
South-West, SSW, WSW; allowed up to West
An earth element mandna of one square drawn inside another is made in the West when orders are not coming, clients are not impressed or something is unstable; the names of what must be stabilised are written inside it.
West
The water element mandna is used from NNW through North to NNE and NE to balance an imbalanced water element; it suits industrial, commercial and residential buildings.
North zone, NNW to NNE and North-East
The earth element (prithvi tatva) has the longest share, 20 of every 60 minutes among the five tatvas of a swar. In the same way, the earth element of the land, its land energy, carries 70 percent of the result in vastu.
Take five samples, representing the five elements: one from each of the four corners (vidishas) and one from the Brahmasthan. Take the soil from about 4 inches (4 angul) below the surface.
Always with the pointed end upward, just as a person walks with the head up. A coconut has three eyes, a head and a tail, and it is the only fruit in which all five elements are perfectly present.
It needs proper tatva swar training; the element is known from how many angul the breath reaches. It also shows in the mind: steadiness means the earth element, joy the water element, restlessness the air element, anger the fire element and indifference the space element.
No, this idea is wrong and should be removed from the mind. An element's own zone can bear any amount of that element: kitchens burn daily in the South-East, factories run furnaces there day and night, and a plant in Goa melts quartz in its South-East without such problems; high mountains in the South-West only strengthen the earth element there.
Remedies for such anti-element placements are taught later, in the remedy classes. First learn each element, its zone, its friends and its enemies; the corrections for a water source in the wrong zone come when the course reaches remedial vastu.
Accept only Vedic vastu, and accept a rule only when it is backed by the scriptures (granth); a lot of baseless vastu is going around. The difference shows in the element order: the chakras from throat to base hold space, air, fire, water and earth, and a system that reverses this changes the order of creation itself. India was regarded as the guru of the world for its knowledge, so there is no need to borrow foreign deities such as Fuk Luk Sau or the laughing Buddha for wealth.
No. The element relationships are taught in much more detail in interior vastu, including the cases where two elements come together in one place.
Ivory is a very light yellow. Off-white is often called ivory, but do not choose plain off-white; true ivory is a very light shade of yellow. It represents the earth element, which is why ivory floor tiles generate so much energy in a house.
The fire zone covers East-South-East (purvi agneya), South-East (agneya) and South-South-East (dakshini agneya).
Energy, both geopathic and cosmic, exists in the form of the elements. The universe, the body and everything in it are made of the five elements, and there is nothing in the world that does not represent one element or another.
Because the earth element is the land (geopathic) energy, which plays a 70 percent role in the result of a building. If land energy is zero, even the best orientation and interiors turn a hero into a zero, so the earth element is the strongest element and must be analysed first.
