What the North-West means in Vastu

In Vastu Shastra, the North-West is the air zone (Vayu). It governs movement, change and support from others, which suits guests, storage of things in flux and drainage. Its element is air and its presiding deity is Vayu.

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.

Why a living room here works

Good for guests and social activities. The North-West is compatible with a living room, even if it is not the very best zone for it.
