Living Room in the North-East: Vastu Score, Effects & Remedies

What the North-East means in Vastu

In Vastu Shastra, the North-East is the most sacred zone of the home (Ishanya). It governs spirituality, mental clarity and health, and Vastu wants it kept light, clean and open. Its element is water and its presiding deity is Ishanya.

The living room is where the family gathers and guests are received, so Vastu looks for light, open zones that support good conversation and a welcoming feel.
