BALANCING ELEMNTS IN A HOUSE BY
VEDIC VASTU SHASTRA
To balance elements in a house
according to Vedic Vastu Shastra, focus on placing the five natural
elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space) in their designated directions
within your home, using appropriate colours, materials, and design elements to
create harmony and positive energy flow throughout the space; for
instance, placing water features in the north or east, keeping the kitchen in
the southeast (fire element), and using heavy furniture in the southwest (earth
element).
