Relevance of water element as per vaastu shastra tenets.

During ancient times, water was used as an elemental solution by the kings by placing their palaces near bodies of water. If you look at most of the world’s capital cities today, they are either located near the water or have large rivers or lakes nearby. Majority of ocean-side and lake-side properties are usually more expensive. Water body near the house or business premises is a good placement because it keeps the energy flowing and prevents it from being ‘locked’. Following water can ease tensions and allow the vibrations of the life force to enter us and nourish our aura. There are simple ways to use the water element to create balance, harmony and prosperity in your surroundings.

  • The body of water should not be too huge compared to the actual premises or it can energetically dominate the site and weaken the occupants growth.

  • Best place is at north east zone. It should not be on the edge of north east axis. Waterfalls and foundations create new energy flow in any environment.

  • Fish tanks are a combination of water and living energy, which stimulates the flow of new energy flow. Aquariums with fish are known for bringing good luck, fortune and a stream of wealth to the occupants.

  • Avoid placing fountain in the south east area of the house or office, which is a location of the fire element and because water puts out fire it can have a dampening effect on your finances.

  • Circulating or moving water is more powerful than stagnant water.

  • Fountains placed at the front door can also deflect negative energy from entering the home.
