Five Elements of Vastu & Us


Air - We breathe and the flow of energy around us is relative to the air current at our site. The Direction of the Main Door, Windows at Home/Office sites and the ventilation's open to the skies affect this flow. Keeping the Doors of the Rooms and Windows open to Sunlight improvises this current significantly promoting positivity in the surrounding.
Water – Our bodies contain close to 60% of Water and the Energy gained from this source is vital to keep our bodies feel rejuvenated. The temperature of Water we consume affects our behavior and in turn affecting our attitude and lifestyles. Keeping the storage of Water in the appropriate Direction can provide us the appropriate temperature making us feel active and charged up the whole day. Likewise if this storage happens to be in an anti Direction according to Vastu Principles; the Water we would be consuming can have adverse affects making us even feel lethargic.
Fire – We cook our foods on fire and at times use other appliances like a microwave oven which has high temperature to cook our dishes the way we wish to have. Keeping the cooking gas stoves in the correct Direction does affect the food being cooked on and an incorrect direction as per Vastu for this source of energy around us can spread negativity around which in turn makes us feel angrier at times or making us feel low and sad.
Earth – The constructions have a foundation on the land and the currents flowing at the core of Earth have an influence on the buildings too. The Buildings constructed in appropriate Direction can gain the access of Cosmic Energies surrounding us and such Buildings absorb them to the maximum whereas the Buildings in an incorrect Direction as advised under the Principles of Vastu Shastra get influence of the negative energies as they get absorbed in these Directions
Space – According to Einstein it expands and contracts depending on what velocity we’re moving at, and it gets bent out of shape by the presence of solid matter. Due to the movement of our planet around the Sun and the Solar Energy affecting our lives accordingly and the rhythmic effect of this element on our minds and souls is immense
