Main door: Vastu direction and placement
Best placement
North, east or north-east.
Avoid
South-west, and a door that faces a staircase, pillar or open drain.
Why it matters in Vastu
The entrance is where energy enters the home. North and east are linked to prosperity and light, while south-west is considered heavy and blocked.
Simple tips
- Keep the entrance bright, clean and clutter-free.
- Use a solid, well-fitting door that opens clockwise.
- Add a nameplate and avoid a dustbin near the entrance.
Vastu Shastra is a traditional system of design guidance. It is offered here as cultural tradition, not as scientific or professional advice. You do not need to rebuild anything: simple changes to placement, color and light are the usual remedies.
