Vastu Tips:Have you ever felt that as soon as you step into some houses, your mind becomes light and calm, while at other places you feel uneasy without any reason? A major reason for this is the energy present in the house.
According to Vastu Shastra, plants not only purify the environment but also bring positivity, progress and good fortune to the house. But just planting trees is not enough, it is very important to plant them in the right direction.
Often people plant trees without paying attention to the direction, due to which instead of getting benefits, adverse effects are seen, such as stress, financial constraints, sourness in relationships or mental disturbance. Therefore, it is very important to plant the right plant in the right direction.
Let us understand which plant is considered auspicious to plant in which direction –
North – Door to wealth and prosperity
The lord of the north direction is Kuber Dev, hence this direction is considered to be associated with wealth and prosperity. If you want economic progress, increase in wealth and removal of financial obstacles, then planting these plants in this direction is beneficial:
Money Plant –Planting it in a green pot or glass bottle and keeping it in the north direction brings financial benefits and helps in making money last.
basil –If Tulsi is planted in the north-east (north-east corner) of the house, it provides purity, positivity and protection from the evil eye.
shankhapushpi– It brings mental peace and benefits children’s studies.
East – health, success and energy
East direction is the direction of Sun God, which is considered a symbol of new beginning, health and life energy.
Plants planted here increase enthusiasm, health and progress in the house.
basil –Maintains peace, health and good fortune in the family.
Bamboo Plant –Symbol of long life, progress and prosperity. Perfect choice for office table or balcony.
take care
Never keep dry, broken or withered plants in the east direction. Doing this affects both the energy and health of the house.
South direction – remove negativity and stability
South direction is considered to be the direction of Yama, but the right plants can change it in an auspicious direction.
Shami plant –It brings blessings of Shanidev and removes negative energy.
Rubber Plant or Ashoka –Keeps the environment calm and positive, and brings stability in the home.
avoid these plants
Keeping thorny plants (like cactus) and plants with milky juice in the south direction can increase mental stress, fights and dissatisfaction.
West – Love and harmony in relationships
The west direction strengthens relationships, harmony and social life at home.
Fragrant plants like rose, jasmine, marigold – make the atmosphere of the house light, loving and pleasant.
Money Plant (in the West) – If there is tension in husband-wife or family relationships, keeping a money plant in the west direction brings sweetness.
Light orange/ochre colored plants also give auspicious effect here and strengthen marital life.
Main Door – Gateway of positive energy
The main door of the house is considered most important in Vastu, because it is from here that energy enters the house.
Crassula (Jade Plant) – It is also called “Money Tree”. Placing it at the main entrance attracts money, increases success and brings financial stability.
stay away from these things
Never keep. These block the positivity of the house and create restlessness in the mind.
Plants are the gift of nature. With a little understanding and taking care of the right direction as per Vastu, you can not only make your house beautiful but can also bring happiness, good fortune, peace and progress in your life.
Greenery always opens the door to joy and success — it just needs to be decorated in the right place.
