KITCHEN AND LAUNDRY AT THE MAIN ENTRANCE OF AN APARTMENT
According to Vastu Shastra,
having a kitchen directly at the entrance of an apartment is generally not
considered ideal. The entrance is a primary energy gateway (prana), and placing
a kitchen there can cause a "Vedha" (obstruction) to positive energy
flow, potentially leading to financial losses or family discord.
Similarly, the laundry area or
washing machine should not be located at the entrance, as it is considered a
"discharging activity" that disrupts the flow of energy.
Here is a breakdown of the Vastu
principles for these areas:
Kitchen at the Entrance
- Ideal Direction: The best location
for a kitchen is the South-East (Agni corner). The second best option
is North-West.
- Why Avoid Entrance: A kitchen at the
main door can obstruct the entry of positive energy.
- If Unavoidable: Ensure the kitchen
is not directly visible from the front door, and keep the kitchen entrance
in the North, East, or West.
- Install one Chinese Convex bagua on the
main entrance door facing outside to repel the negative energy coming
inside the house.
- Vastu Defects: Kitchens in the
Northeast or Southwest are strictly prohibited as they cause severe health
and financial troubles.
Laundry at the Entrance
- Ideal Location: The most ideal place
for a laundry/wash area is West or North-West.
- Avoid: Laundry/washing machines
should not be in the North-East or South-West, as this leads to
health problems, financial loss, and mental anxiety.
- Why Avoid Entrance: Similar to the
kitchen, a wash area right at the main door or main entry path creates a
major Vastu flaw called "Vedha", and will stop positive energy
coming inside the house.
Summary Checklist for Small
Apartments
If your layout is fixed, follow
these remedies to balance the energy:
- Keep it Clean: A kitchen and laundry
area near the entrance must be meticulously clean and organized.
- Separate Fire & Water: Do not
keep the washing machine (water) next to the gas stove (fire).
- Use Remedies: Place a Vastu pyramid
or a small, attractive plant to partition the entryway from the kitchen to
block the direct flow of negative energy.
