Vastu is a traditional Indian system of architecture that is believed to bring harmony, positivity, and success in a home. A lot of people strongly believe in vastu and design their homes accordingly. However, with the growing trend of buying ready-to-move homes or living in rental apartments, there isn’t much you can do have a vastu-compliant house.
Thankfully, there are solutions which can help you fix these problems without making any structural changes. Let’s begin.
Light up every corner of your home
Vastu puts special significance to the lighting. Every area of the house, including the storeroom, bathroom, and area under the staircase should be well-lit. You can also use fragrant candles.
The fragrance of the home holds particular importance in vastu. Lighting incense sticks twice a day restricts bad energy.
Decorate the entryway
If you have a small home and there is a wall facing the main door, it can act as a barrier for incoming energy. To increase the inflow of positive energy, you can place any god’s idol, a dream catcher, or hang a Sri Yantra on the wall.
Make sure that there is no water body, such as a fountain, tank, or aquarium, outside the entryway.
Doors must be smooth and inward opening
While you cannot change the location of your entryway, you can ensure that the doors open inwards. Inward opening doorways make way for positive energy to enter the home. Creaking doors are believed to bring bad omen. Therefore, it is recommended to grease the hinges at a regular interval to ensure they are smooth.
There shouldn’t be too many doors in a home and should always be an even number. If you want to change the number of doors, you can block it using any big object or a wooden strip as blocked door are not counted.
Your bed should face towards the east
The headboard of your bed should always face towards the east. It is because the sun rises from the same direction and waking up with your head towards the east allows you to start your day on a positive note.
Avoid placing the bed directly under the beam or exactly opposite the door as these are believed to increase stress and conflicts among couples.
Place mirrors carefully
Mirrors can absorb or repel negative energy depending upon their placement. Never place the mirror on the west or south walls of your home, as it is believed to absorb positive energy and increase conflicts. Also, avoid having a mirror in the bedroom, especially opposite your bed.
Further, broken mirrors are considered as a bad omen. If there are any broken mirrors in your home, toss them right away.
Hang metal bells outside your home
Metal bells are musical, which soothes the mind and helps break the pessimism of people living in the house. It is a small addition that is believed to bring happiness and calmness in the house.
