Main entrance
Entrance placement
The main door is the home's most important opening. East and North are traditionally favourable; the door should open inward and remain clear.
What's included
East and North are commonly favoured; the complete reading depends on the home's supplied layout and facing.
Kitchen · Agni corner
Kitchen placement
The kitchen belongs in the South-East fire corner. The cook should face East; water fixtures are kept apart from the stove.
What's included
South-East is the classical first choice; North-West can be a practical alternative when the structure cannot change.
Master bedroom
Rest and stability
The master bedroom is traditionally placed in the South-West. A bed headboard toward South or West supports the classical reading.
What's included
South-West is the classical placement; mirrors facing the bed and shared kitchen or toilet walls are common cautions.
Puja room
North-East clarity
The puja room is traditionally placed in the North-East. Keep its inner North-East open and bright, with the deity facing East or West.
What's included
North-East is the classical first choice; the complete result depends on the home details you provide.
Staircase
Movement through the home
A staircase should rise clockwise and avoid starting directly opposite the main door. South, West, or North-West are traditionally stronger placements.
What's included
Placement guidance comes first; structural changes are not assumed by this guide.
Plot direction
Facing and proportion
East and North-facing plots are traditionally favourable; West can be workable, while South needs careful entrance and placement design.
What's included
The direction alone does not determine the reading: placement and proportion matter equally.

For your home.
A Vastu reading begins with the home you already live in. Start with direction and placement, then use the supplied rooms and plot details to decide what to explore next.
Main entrance
East and North are traditionally favourable entrance directions; the door should open inward and remain clear.
Kitchen and bedroom
The kitchen is classically placed South-East; the master bedroom is classically placed South-West.
Puja, staircase and plot
North-East is traditionally used for puja, while staircase placement and plot proportion complete the wider reading.
