Common Vastu Doshas & Remedies

Main Entrance Dosha

Issue: Entrance in unfavorable direction (typically South-West for many homes). Effect: Wealth drain, conflicts, health issues. Remedy: Place metal pyramid above door frame, hang convex mirror inside near entrance, paint door in propitious color (red for north entrance).

Kitchen Dosha

Issue: Kitchen in wrong direction (NE is worst — water+fire conflict). Effect: Financial loss, health problems, family disputes. Remedy: Shift kitchen to SE if possible. If not movable, add Vastu pyramid in SE corner, keep clean burning gas always, paint walls cream/yellow.

Toilet Dosha

Issue: Toilet in NE (sacred direction). Effect: Severe wealth drain, spiritual obstacles, family discord. Remedy: Move toilet if structurally possible. Otherwise: keep door always closed, place sea salt in toilet (change weekly), keep lights on always, use specific Vastu yantra.

Master Bedroom Dosha

Issue: Master bedroom in NE (should be SW). Effect: Owner's health/wealth issues, marital discord. Remedy: Move master bedroom to SW. Avoid sleeping with head toward North (causes magnetic disturbance) — sleep with head South/East.

Vastu Combined With Astrology

Best results combination: Vastu (environmental energy) + individual kundli analysis (personal energy). Person's birth chart determines specific directional sensitivities — what works for one person may not for another. Manglik dosha + Vastu dosha together create amplified effects. Always combine both sciences for comprehensive remedies.
