Vaastu for flats

Vaastu of Flats

Vaastu energy is like a magnetic force and acts upon every person under its influence.

Balconies

Generally flats have balconies but there locations differ as per the design possibilities. If the flat has balconies in the East and in the North, it is supposed be the best flat. · The flats which have balconies in the West are of middle quality. By keeping in mind these rules one can easily choose the right kind of flat.

Bed Rooms

Prefer the bedroom in the southwest corner as master bed room. The bed room in the south east corner of the flat is good only for guests. Can be used as study room. The North West corner bed room is good for children and old aged persons.

Lifts, Staircase and Sump

It is advisable to construct stairs in the south or west zone of the main building. Stairs in north or east portion of the building are not auspicious. Lift and staircase must be adjacent to each other as much possible.

Escalators or the lift cannot be in the southwest corner of a flat or apartment which will cause Vaastu problems. · Water sumps and swimming pools should not come at southwest corner, south or west directions. Lifts and swimming pools in the center place or “Brahmasthanam” of a flat is not a good Vaastu effect.

Garden in a Flat

Gardens in any flat or apartment should always be in the North or east sides of the plot and within the confines of the compound. The South and West are not to be selected for any kind of garden or plantation. Trees like Asoka, Neem and Coconut planted within the campus in the south and West sides are good for multi-storied structures. There should be no plants or trees exactly in front of the main gate. If the trees are used in garden or open area, tall and dense trees should not be near the building.

Indoor Plants

Light indoor plants can be kept in the North, East and Northeast sectors of your rooms. You may place heavy indoor plants in the South, West and Southwest corners of your rooms. 

Bathrooms and Toilets

Flats with toilets in the North-East should be avoided as they cause health problems.  The toilets can be in the North West and south east corners of a flat. · The toilets in the south west corner must be avoided as they cause severe financial strain.

Keep the closets in the toilets aligned with North-South axis facilitating facing only North or South.

Undivided Share of Land

The plot or piece of land is divided in to undivided shares and registered to every buyer of the flat by the builder. The more the share of the land compared to the carpet area of the flat, the more the flat has open area. When comparing the options of two flats the area of the undivided share of land must be considered as higher of it improves the Vaastu energy.

Main door

Select a flat that has its main door in the east, north, northeast or west of the northwest. Avoid the main door in the south or west of the southwest and east of the southeast. If the flat’s main door is in the inauspicious direction, keep it closed when not in use. Open it only when required. Place a mirror of at least 2 ft. x 2 ft. size on the Eastern or Northern Wall in front of the inauspicious main entrance. The height of the main door should be maximum out of all the doors.

Pictures and Photographs

Pictures of deities can be hung on the Eastern or Western walls. Pictures of deities should face only East or West. Pictures of the departed souls should be placed on the South wall only. Avoid hanging pictures of battle-scenes, wild animals, birds like eagle etc., in the flat. Do not keep photographs of dead persons in the prayer rooms.

Windows

Keep the windows and other openings in the Northeast, North and the East always fully open. While using curtains, use thicker and heavier curtains for the Southern and Western openings, and thinner and softer curtains for the Northern and Eastern openings. There should be enough ventilation to each flat of every floor.

Kitchens

Kitchen in every flat should be in the south-east corner.

Chests and Safes

Place your chest or safe in the Southwest corner of the Southwest bedroom facilitating its opening towards North. This will help improving finances and revenues of the family.

Outdoor Areas and Gates

Open area in North or East should be used for parking and park/lawn etc. Two separate gates should be provided in the complex for exit and entry.
