What the South-East means in Vastu

In Vastu Shastra, the South-East is the fire zone (Agni). It governs energy, cooking and cash flow, and suits activities that involve heat. Its element is fire and its presiding deity is Agni.

Bathrooms and toilets carry water and waste out of the home, so Vastu places them where outflow is natural and keeps them away from sacred and stable zones.

Why a bathroom here is a concern

Workable, but can slightly aggravate the fire element already present in this zone.
