These resultant energies act as a gateway to positivity characteristics such as peace, prosperity and your accomplishments.
It’s often said that when a house is built as per these principles, you and your family will attain unparalleled luck and prosperity in life. However, if your windows or doors are not built as per these principles, it can lead to negative energies creeping in thus creating unwanted issues and stresses in your life. Simply put, Vastu governs every movement of life while helping maintain a dynamic balance between Form and Energy to create a harmonious environment within your house.
* As per Vastu, the windows and doors of your house must at all times be in even numbers such as 2, 4, 6, 8 etc. while avoiding 10. Additionally, also ensure it stays in multiples of 8.
* According to Vastu, your main door should be free of any obstructions such as plants, big trees, staircases, poles etc. Additionally, your door should not have a temple directly in front of your main door as well. Similarly, any picture or depiction of God should not behung at the outer side of your door.
* Doors should be adorned with auspicious decorative items such as Ganesha, Om, Laxmi, and Swastika pictures.
* Doors and windows should be placed opposite to each other so that both the positive and negative cycles are completed. This is done to enable the proper flow of air thus facilitating cross-ventilation between rooms. Moreover, it also allows for the adequate transmission of light from room to room as well.
* While zeroing in on the ideal material for your main doors, you should always opt for Teak as it’s undoubtedly the best material used in the construction of doors and windows.
