The ancient Indian science of architecture, Vaastu Shastra, continues to remain relevant and popular among modern-day homeowners across the country. The principles of Vaastu dictate that by making a few simple architectural and design choices in the home, we can create an environment of happiness and good health.
Here are 9 ways in which you can make your home Vaastu-friendly:
- The entrance to your home should feel warm and welcoming. Make sure that the entrance passage is well-lit, the door is clean and the hinges are well-oiled. Ensure that the entrance door always opens on the inside.
- Put up a nameplate at the entrance of your house. This is believed to invite opportunities for success and prosperity into the home.
- Another way of inviting wealth and prosperity into the home is to hang up a mirror in the dining area on any wall that faces the north or northeast direction.
- To strengthen the bonds of love and togetherness in the home, you can hang up or place family photographs against any southwest-facing wall of the residence.
- Wind chimes hanging on the bedroom window help promote peaceful sleep and a sense of tranquility in the home.
- Avoid putting up any mirrors in the bedroom, especially in front of the bed. Avoid placing your bed directly under any beams in the room.
- The kitchen is considered a sacred space, which must be kept clean at all times. Moreover, Vaastu dictates that you should never store medicines in the kitchen.
- The presence of water in the home symbolizes the flow of life. A fish bowl or an aquarium in the living area represents flow and movement and promotes a sense of well-being in the home.
- The core or central part of the home should always feel free, spacious and roomy. Keeping it free of heavy furniture helps maintain the flow of energies within the home.
