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.

Storage is heavy and static, so Vastu puts it where weight is welcome — the grounded South-West — and keeps it out of the light, open North-East.

Why a store room here is a concern

Workable for storage, though prolonged heavy storage here can add to this zone's already restless air energy.
