If in doubt, better stop and check with the help of the Vaastu compass. This will save you from the chaos and hardships on the unpredictable road of life.
Vaastu Shastra, basically a science of directions, specifies the correct directions for everything — from eating to sleeping and from working to decorating the house.
According to Vaastu, each direction is governed by a ruling deity and a ruling planet that dictates the location of rooms and the placement of components within. If any element is not located or placed in the proper direction, it causes defects and compromises the suitability of the place.
What Vaastu does is to harness the energies of different directions for our prosperity. This makes it all the more important for all to have some knowledge about the attributes of the eight directions.
