Location and Orientation vastu

Location in Vastu:

1. Selection of Land:
   • Vastu advises selecting a plot of land that is square or rectangular in shape, with the corners at right angles. Irregularly shaped plots are considered inauspicious.
   • The land should be fertile, with a gentle slope towards the northeast, allowing for proper drainage of rainwater.
2. Surrounding Environment:
   • A commercial building should ideally be located in an area with positive surroundings, such as clean and unpolluted surroundings, good roads, and harmonious neighboring buildings.
   • It’s best to avoid plots near cemeteries, hospitals, or places of worship, as they can emit negative energy.
3. Natural Elements:
   • The presence of natural elements like water bodies (rivers, lakes) and hills or mountains in the vicinity is considered auspicious, as they contribute to the flow of positive energy.

Orientation in Vastu:

1. Directional Alignment:
   • The orientation of the building is crucial. Each direction is associated with different energies and elements, and the orientation of the building affects the flow of these energies.
   • For commercial buildings, the orientation is often determined by the type of business. For example, east-facing entrances are considered suitable for educational institutions, while north-facing entrances are preferred for shops and financial institutions.
2. Sunlight and Ventilation:
   • Proper orientation ensures ample sunlight and ventilation throughout the day, which is essential for maintaining a healthy and positive environment within the building.
   • East-facing entrances allow the morning sunlight to enter, which is believed to be beneficial for productivity and vitality.
3. Magnetic Influence:
   • Vastu considers the magnetic influence of the earth, and aligning the building with the cardinal directions is believed to balance these energies.
   • The northeast direction is considered the most auspicious, symbolizing prosperity and growth.
