Vastu Shastra is an ancient Indian system of architecture that integrates building design with natural forces like sunlight, wind, and cardinal directions. Core Elements & Directions- Five Elements: Vastu teaches that the universe consists of Earth, Air, Space, Fire, and Water, each linked to a specific zone. The Fire Corner: The southeast direction is governed by Agni (the fire god) and is considered the ideal spot for a kitchen. The Spiritual Center: The northeast corner is viewed as the most auspicious zone, traditionally recommended for prayer or meditation rooms (pooja rooms). Stability Zone: The southwest is tied to the earth element and stability, making it the preferred location for the master bedroom.
