DIRECTIONS AND THEIR ROLE IN VASTU SHASTRA

NORTHERN HEMISPHERE

PART 1

Directions play an important role in Vastu. Right knowledge of direction is very important to make a building structure according to vaastu. In the olden days people who needed to check the directions very minutely, used to see the shadow of sun. In the modern technical world the instrument called magnetic compass is used to check the directions. In the total there are 10 directions but to check with compass only 8 directions are available. Compass has 360 degrees in total with its radius. Every direction is allotted 45 degrees. For every direction, checking the level of degree is very important.

In total there are ten directions, four are the main directions

North, South, East, West

Four are sub directions which are always in corners

Northeast (Ishan) in the centre of south and east

Agneya: In the centre of south and east

Southwest: (Niruthya) in the centre of south and west

Northwest: (Vayavya) in the centre of North and West

In vastu 9th direction is space and tenth direction is Patal

Directions a Glimpse

North direction as per vastu: North is a very good direction. The owner of this direction is KUBER. Kuber is a Hindu deity and is known for wealth and prosperity. This direction is called wealth and career direction. The planet for this direction is Budha.

The Vaastu Purush’s chest and breast area occupies the North direction. This direction should always be open, beautiful, light and less burdened due to the body parts of the Vaastu Purush.

The today’s logical interpretation of the intellectual vastu consultants states that the North direction which has North Pole, provides tremendous positive energy to the whole structure. There should be big openings in the North direction to receive the energies of North Pole.

South direction as per vastu: South is always considered as a bad direction, but it is not like that. South is a bank for all the good energies of North direction. There should not be big openings in South. The owner of this direction is YAM. Yam is a Hindu deity for Death. Big openings from south give problems comparable to death. South’s owner is also in charge of justice, legal affairs. So if you have south defects, be ready for injustice and legal issues in life.

The corresponding planet for this direction is MANGAL. South also affects the growth in financial prospects, business and career. Closed places in South are prosperous. South stores the wealth in the form of energy. Closed and heavy walls in south direction keep the yam at bay from the inmates of the house.
