PLANTING OF TREES AS PER VASTU
SHASTRA
Vastu Shastra, an ancient Indian science of architecture and buildings, emphasizes the importance of direction and the type of trees planted around a home for bringing positivity, prosperity, and well-being to the inhabitants. Here’s a brief overview of auspicious trees according to Vastu Shastra and the directions they are best suited for:
1. East Direction:
• Tulsi (Holy Basil): Considered very auspicious when planted in the
east, Tulsi is known for its spiritual and medicinal properties. It is believed
to bring health and happiness to the household.
2. North-East Direction:
• Banana Tree: Planting a banana tree in the north-east direction is
considered good for spiritual growth and health.
• Neem Tree: Known for its medicinal properties, a neem tree in the
north-east is believed to bring health benefits to the inhabitants.
3. North Direction:
• Money Plant: While not a tree, the money plant when placed in the
north direction is believed to attract wealth and prosperity.
4. North-West Direction:
• Peepal Tree (Ficus religiosa): It is advised to plant Peepal tree in
the north-west but not too close to the house as its large roots can damage
structures. It is considered sacred and is associated with various deities in
Hinduism.
5. South-West Direction:
• Pakad Tree (Ficus virens): Planting in the south-west is recommended
for stability and growth. However, care should be taken to plant it at some
distance from the house due to its expansive root system.
6. West Direction:
• Amla Tree (Indian Gooseberry): An Amla tree in the west direction is considered to promote health and longevity.
While Vastu recommends planting certain trees in specific directions, it
is equally important to consider practical aspects such as the tree’s growth
habits, root system, and the space available in your property to avoid
structural damage. Additionally, it’s advisable to consult with a Vastu expert
for personalized recommendations based on your specific situation and layout of
the property.
