VASTU FOR BEDROOM

In India Vastu shastra is considered a sacred science that helps people live a stress-free life. According to Vastu, eachdirection has its own unique characteristics that get imparted to the various rooms of the house in those directions.

Relying on Vastu for living in perfect harmony and keeping problems at an arm’s length is even more important for the bedroom, where one retires to escape from the worries of the world and have a tension-free life.

Thus, bedrooms also acquire characteristics to ensure harmony in the house.

VASTU TIPS FOR BEDROOM

A bedroom in the North: This is ideal direction for young couples and for storing valuables, important papers, cash, jewellery etc.

 A bedroom in the Northeast: This direction should not have any bedroom since it is the sacred space of the house.

A bedroom in the East: This direction is ideal for unmarried children.

A bedroom in the Southeast: This direction is not recommended for having bedroom since it is the quadrant of fire and imparts a hot temperament to those occupying it. It also leads to constant quarrels between couples and incurs excessive expenditure. Children staying in this direction do not take interest in their studies and find it difficult to get a sound sleep.

A bedroom in the South or Southwest: The direction is ideal for having Master bedroom and should be occupied by the head of the family. It should be larger than the other rooms. In case of a multi-storeyed building, this room should always be on the top floor.

A bedroom in the West: The direction is ideal for students. However, it increases the probability of birth of a large number of girls in the family.

A bedroom in the Northwest: The direction is best suitable for newlywed couples.

VASTU GUIDELINES FOR BEDROOM

1)    Vastu shastra does not recommend a bedroom in the Southeast under any circumstances. It is best to shift bedroom from this room to any other room in the Southwest, south, west, or northwest. In case there is no choice, keep the bed away from Southeast corner or you will be sleeping on too much fire. Sleep in this room with your head towards the south and feet towards the north to ward of the ill effects. 

2)    Vastu shastra allows attached bathrooms towards the west or north of the bedroom. However, some suggest locating it towards the East, southeast, North or Northwest of the bedroom. The door of an attached bathroom should always be closed.

3)    The ideal colors of the walls of the bedroom are light shades of rose, blue and green. The master bedroom and the guest bedroom should be painted in different hues of blue for a good sleep. Marble stone should not be used in the bedroom of newly married couple.

4)    You can decorate the walls with decorative wall hangings or pictures that bring pleasure since this is what you will see the first thing in the morning when you wake up.

5)    The correct placement of furniture in the bedroom makes one feel at home. Vaastu suggest that since bedrooms normally have heavy objects like beds, cupboards etc., they should be placed in the south, Southwest, or west direction of the room. If possible, avoid beds in the centre of the room.

6)    According to vastu shastra, mirrors should not be located inside the bedroom as this leads to misunderstandings and quarrels between the couples. However, if essential, place them preferably along the Northeast wall.

7)    It is best to sleep with the head towards the South or East direction of the bedroom. The South brings a good deep sleep and ensures a long life, while the East brings enlightenment. There should be no window behind you while sleeping.
