House Vastu Tips by J C Chaudhry

Vastu for Home Architect

The word Vastu means “house or dwelling place.” The underlying root word Vas means to live or reside, and Shastra means the book. So, Vastu Shastra teaches us the fundamentals of living a harmonious life. The sole aim of home Vastu is to balance the five elements and ensure a free flow of positive energies within the building so that the occupants can live a healthy and happy life.

What If Home is Not Built as Per Vastu Shastra?

Much importance is given to the interiors of the home and little to how the structure of the building is built. Is it built keeping in mind the details of the cosmos? If the abode is not built on the Vastu guidelines for home, residents can face poor health, loss in business, conflicts in relationships and other issues. The building becomes malefic, and there is no free flow of energy in the house when home Vastu shastra is ignored during the construction process. Unless there is a free flow of energy in the house, the occupants cannot prosper. Hence, Home Vastu is of paramount importance.

Home Vastu Basics You Should Know

Given below are a few Vastu basics you should keep in mind while planning and designing your home.

Shape of the Plot

The ideal shape of the plot for home is square. Second, to this, rectangular-shaped plot with a length bigger than breadth, say 2:1 respectively is best. Avoid triangular, circular, pentagonal or hexagonal-shaped plots.
