Where we live can influence our happiness, wealth, health, and prosperity. The Vastu Shastra is the Vedic science of building.
The Vastu Shastra considers the astrological placement of the Sun, Earth, and other planets during the actual construction. It also considers where the building site is located, the site’s shape, the proposed building’s shape, the direction the building will face, the location of gates, entry doors, room doors, windows, and the building’s general design. North and east are considered important directions—east because it is the direction from which the sun rises.

Ancient people used to design city , temple and palaces according to Vastu creating the harmony where all elements are balanced with each other. Vastu is based on various energy such as earth energy , wind energy, and cosmic energy . Utilizing this energy best in construction will bring the fruitful result.
In dealing with the interior decoration of a vastu shastra house, a good understanding of the zones is required. There are positive and the negative zones which vastu shastra aims to balance. These zones deal with placing light objects and furnishings on the positive zones while the heavy ones should be kept at the negative zones. Positive zones are located at the North, East, and Northeast while negative zones are located at the South, West, and Southwest.
