The Sun is the most vital source of energy and light. It is difficult to imagine life on earth without it. The Sun’s rays can be split into seven plus two colors. Beginning from the very beneficial ultra-violet rays in its eastern side corresponding to north-east and infra-red in the opposite south-west side, the sun’s rays split into violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red (VIBGYOR). The 24 hours of 1 solar day are divided into eight parts, which are associated with the eight cardinal directions. In each of these eight periods, the Sun is positioned in one of the cardinal directions. Therefore, the room which is most likely to be used during that period is located in this direction.

Relationship Between Tatva, Chakra & Direction
The ancient science of Vastu Shastra, which is derived from Vedas, states the presence of the Vastu Purush, the God of structures and construction in every human dwelling. The Vastu Purush lies with his head towards the Northeast and his feet towards the Southwest with various Deities mounted on Him, becoming the presiding Deities of respective directions. Different energies corresponding to different elements and Tatvas of the Vastu Purush reside in different directions and thus at various locations in a human dwelling.
Energies of various Tatvas, Planets, Geometries, and Chakras influence the different directions in a dwelling. Muladhara Chakra influences the South and South West corners of stability which are ruled by Earth element, Swathisthana Chakra influences the West Corner which is ruled by Lord Varuna, the God of Ocean, Manipura Chakra influences the South East corner which is also home to the Fire element, Hrit Padma Chakra is in East Corner whose God is Indra and home to the Fire element,
Anahata Chakra is in the North West corner which is home to the air element, Vishudha Chakra influences the North corner which is home to the Ether element and Sahasrara and Ajna Chakra are located in the North East corner which is also called Ishaan or place of dwelling of pure consciousness. To gain maximum benefits and get optimal results from these energies, each corner and area is advised to be used for a particular activity. For instance, the Sahasrara Chakra of the Vastu Purush is in Northeast direction and it is the most suitable direction for mediation purposes and to build a Puja room. Similarly, it's best to have a kitchen in the direction where the fire element or Manipura Chakra is located in the dwelling.
The Five Elements (Panch Tatva)
Everything is this universe is made up of the Panchabhuta or the five elements. The five elements exist both as themselves and as all other objects. The five elements namely Sky (Akash), Air (Vayu), Fire (Agni), Water (Jal), and Earth (Prithvi) are the basis of all creations. They are the building blocks of nature and all matter. These five elements have varied characteristics and knowledge, balance and harmony of these elements are what lead to health and happiness.
It is the balance or imbalance among these Panchtatva that makes one's Space harmonious for the indwellers or creates problematic life situations for them.
An underground water tank in the South Zone will cause anxiety, instability, and lack of orders. Similarly, the fire placed in North Zone (Ether) will block new opportunities and will cause impatience and disturbed sleep, as they are attributes of this Zone.
Our whole cosmic quest of the world and beyond starts from the point of panchabhuta (five elements) which then manifests in an enjoining manner to form the life force and then, later, those five elements disintegrates to ensure a celestial traverse at the Paramanu (atom) level.
However, we will first try to understand these five elements which are Earth or Prithvi; Water or Jal ; Fire or Agni; Air or Vayu and then Ether. Each of these Five elements has its own character and celestial elements which we will gauge in the following lines.
- Ether (Akaash)
- Air (Vayu)
- Fire (Agni)
- Water (Jal)
- Earth (Prithvi)

Vastu As Per Directions
Scientific Background of
Chakra Vastu
This is explained here:
‘POOJA’ ROOM OR MEDITATION ROOM
IN THE NORTH-EAST
The period between 3 am and 6 am, just before sunrise, is called ‘Brahma Muhurta’. At this time, the Sun is in the North-Eastern part of the house. These hours are ideal for Yoga, meditation, or study as it is very quiet and peaceful. Therefore, the North-East corner is the best position for the ‘Pooja’ room or prayer/ meditation room.
BATHROOM, DOORS/WINDOWS IN THE EAST
From 6 am to 7.30 am, the Sun is in the eastern part of the house. This is the time for bathing and preparing for the day, so East is a good location for a bathroom used for bathing purposes only. In addition, there should be many openings and no obstructions in the East so that the beneficial rays of the morning Sun will engulf the house.
KITCHEN
IN THE SOUTH-EAST
The time between 7.30am to 9 am, when the Sun is in the South-East part of the house, is the best time for preparing food to be eaten later in the day. The Sun emits more ultra-violet rays in the morning hours than any other time of the day, which have a good effect on the human body and the environment surrounding him. These rays have a tendency to kill bacteria.
ROOM, OFFICE, STOREROOM
IN THE SOUTH
The period between 9:00 am and noon is the time for work. The Sun is now in the South, and hence this is the best position for an office and a room. By noon, the intensity of the heat is high and so the South is ideal for store rooms which need to be moisture proof.
CHILDREN’S BEDROOM, STUDY ROOM, TOILETS
IN THE WEST
The period between 3 pm and 6 pm is the time for children to study. The Sun is in the West and this is the best location for a children’s bedroom or your study room
GUEST BEDROOM, LIVING ROOM, DINING ROOM
IN THE NORTH-WEST
Generally, the time between 6 pm and 9 pm, when the Sun is in the North-West part of the house, is the time for recreation. So rooms, where maximum movement is required, are placed here
FAQs
Why should one sleep with the head toward South?
The North direction and human head both are positive poles, due to which they repel each other. The flow of magnetic field is from North of to South, so the body in North-South axis position will receive the magnetic field from the feet resulting in proper blood circulation, due to the presence of iron in the blood.
Why is Northeast corner of the house so auspicious? Why should we keep it open?
Due to the tilt of the earth (22½°), the Northeast corner of a structure receives energy. During early morning when the sun is at its maximum distance from the earth, only infrared rays are able to reach the earth, which is beneficial for the human body. Hence Northeast portion of the house should be such that it should receive beneficial infrared rays.
Are all houses situated in front of a T-junctions are bad and why?
Generally speaking, one should avoid a building in front of a T-junction. In comparison, a house in front of a T-junction in the South or West direction has more bad effects than the one facing North or East direction. The harsh energy due to the traffic on the road entering directly into the premises results in a tense and negative environment.
Why is North considered to be the best direction for facing while studying or working?
When you are facing the North, the magnetic field of the earth is towards your face and charges you up resulting in sharp memory and increase in grasping power.

Yes, in fact, it is the first important thing to be considered while choosing a plot. A square or rectangular shaped plot is taken as ideal shape for a plot in Vastu. Any other shape with Southwest corner at 90° angle, with Northwest and Southeast corners having more than 90° angle and Northeast corner at less than 90° angle is also considered auspicious.
