EASY REMEDIES FOR VASTU DOSH

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #1 – PERFORM VASTU SHANTI POOJA

Performing a Vastu Shanti Pooja is one of the most powerful ways to correct Vastu Dosh. This sacred Hindu ritual is designed to appease the Vastu Purusha (the energy deity associated with the property) along with the gods of direction and five natural elements (Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space) and restore harmony.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #2 – NAIL A HORSESHOE ABOVE THE ENTRANCE MAIN DOOR

A horseshoe is a widely regarded symbol of good luck and protection. The horseshoe attracts positive energies; so placing it at the main door is perfect to repel evil spirits and harmful forces, encourage a harmonious environment inside the house and keep the aura of the home clean and uplifting.

It is best to hang the horseshoe facing upwards with its open ends pointing up. It is believed to collect and hold the good luck and prosperity within its U-shape.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #3 – PLACE THE PICTURE OF A DEITY ON THE FRONT WALL

When someone enters your house, they should see a picture of the God you believe in. It is best to place a picture of the deity on the first wall the person sees in front of the main door. 

Some people prefer to keep the deities’ pictures private and in the pooja room; then place a Buddha statue at the entrance. The Buddha statue should ideally face the East, North or North-East direction and should be either in the main entrance, living room or southern corner of the house.  

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #4 – HANG WIND CHIMES NEAR THE ENTRANCE

Wind chimes not only add to the decor, but also bring positive energy into your home when placed correctly. People facing Vastu Dosh troubles should hang a wind chime at the entrance. The wind chime you buy should have six or eight rods to create perfect harmony.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #6 – CRYSTAL BALLS ABSORB NEGATIVE ENERGY

Crystal balls are considered auspicious when placed inside a home or office because they absorb negative energies and keep your home free from bad luck. Since they’re made of quartz, they also look very attractive. They could be in the form of chandelier/light fitting balls or as decor items. Get a pink crystal ball for good relationships, an orange one for better finances, and a red crystal ball for good luck.

Rock salt is one of the simplest methods to cleanse your space as per Vastu and get rid of negative energies. It is even better if you can place uncrushed portions of sea salt in your home. Remember that normal salt will not have the same benefit as rock salt.

Yet another very effective solution is to place camphor crystals in different areas of your home. This is especially useful for people facing financial problems or stagnation. The camphor should be replaced after they shrivel up.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #8 – POSITION A MIRROR IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

To get rid of Vastu Dosh, the mirrors in your home must be placed in the right direction as per Vastu Shastra tips. The mirror shouldn’t be placed opposite the main door, nor should it show a reflection of your bed.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #9 – GET RID OF BROKEN OR DAMAGED  ITEMS IN THE HOUSE

As per Vastu Shastra tips, keeping anything broken or damaged in your house is bad luck. Broken items like plates, chipped glasses and bowls breed negativity. Broken mirrors are the worst to have. Mirrors reflect what is in front of them and if your mirror is broken, the reflection of whatever you are trying to attract will also be broken. Hence, having a broken mirror is bad for the home.

Another thing to watch out for is a clock that does not work. This, too, is known to bring bad luck. You must throw away damaged clocks from your home if you don’t want to face financial issues and health troubles. Replace broken mirrors and useless clocks with ones that work.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #11 – ADD AN AQUARIUM OR FISH POND TO YOUR HOME

Fish help attract positive energy at home and feeding the fish also helps in improving good karma. In Vastu Shastra, it is believed that when a fish dies in the aquarium, it means a problem also dies with it. Therefore, keeping an aquarium or a fish pond is beneficial in removing the Vastu Dosh from the office, school or any other type of building. It also helps ward off the negativity caused by unwanted visitors.

Ideally place the aquarium in the North or East direction. Additionally, the aquarium must only be placed in the home’s dining room and not anywhere else.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #12 – DISPLAY FAMILY PHOTOS

A house is called a home when a family lives in it. And as per Vastu shastra tips, hanging a big family photo or multiple photos in the living room can help strengthen the bond between the family members. So, try out this Vastu for home tip and hang some trendy frames with the photos of your family members.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY #13 – MAKE SURE TO HAVE PLANTS LIKE TULSI, MONEY PLANT

Make sure to have plants like Tulsi, money plants in and around the home. They bring positive energy to the house and are easy to grow. But remember to take good care of them and do not allow them to wilt or dry out as this is a symbol of misfortune; so if any leaves dry out you should remove them.

VASTU DOSH REMEDY 14- USE APPROPRIATE COLOURS

VASTU DOSH REMEDY 18 – LIGHT AN OIL/GHEE DIYA EVERYDAY

Lighting a lamp with ghee and sesame/mustard oil on a daily basis in the north east direction is believed to remove all kinds of negative energy from your home inviting positivity in your home while keeping the environment of the home well balanced and sattavic in nature. Furthermore, it enhances peace and can even support spiritual growth for the residents of the house. To get maximum benefit from this ritual, you can place the diya near a Tulsi plant or in your pooja room.

Vastu Shastra Tips for a Healthy Home

• Use the pooja room or mandir of the house only for worshipping your God and deities. Don’t use the room as storage or for anything else in the house.
• When building the kitchen, construct the area for cooking in such a way that anyone using the stove faces east. This ensures lots of positivity and good health for the entire family.
• Toilets and bathrooms are places where we discard the waste from our body, therefore, it is advised to always build the toilets in the west or the north -west. Having a toilet in any other direction of the house, creates vastu dosh.
• Dark shades like black and red should be kept away from the living room or any space where you entertain guests. These colours absorb negative energy.
• Your bedroom must not have a mirror and the bed should not face one at any cost. This brings bad luck to your lives.
• Air purifying plants like the areca palm, peace lily, variety of pothos, and even the snake plant work as great decorations for home, as they purify the air and the energy in your space.
• Ensure that there is no window behind your bed. The windows in your bedroom should be on the east or north wall.
• The furniture in your house should be in a square or rectangle shape. Odd shapes or even pieces that are round, do not fit in with the principles of vastu shastra.
• Install bright lights in the pooja room for post sunset hours. As per vastu shastra, the pooja room should never be left in darkness.
• The south east side of the living room should be saved for the TV. A television set in the south west corner will give you lots of trouble and has chances of breaking down too often.

• To promote healthy eating habits and bring in good luck, grains and other food items should be stored in the south-western direction of the kitchen.

• Keep the bathrooms well ventilated. The windows and exhaust fan should be in the north-east direction, to remove any kind of bacteria, giving a clean and hygienic environment.
