Vastu for Flats and Apartments

Now, the question is, Is Vastu applicable for flats and apartments?

Basically, builders design apartments in tandem without adhering to Vastu compliance. Their main objective is to cover every corner of an apartment, even if they have to defy Vastu principles.

All you need to do is give answers to some of my questions mentioned below, and you will be able to have your apartment's Vastu yourself. **

Now, I will familiarize you with the tips on how to choose a perfect flat/apartment.

Vastu for Flat Main Entrance

Main door Vastu for flats: Tips to keep in mind

For a basic understanding, you may keep the following points in mind:

1: You should choose a flat that features its main gate exactly in East, West, and North. As far as South facing flat is concerned, you must be careful as an entrance in the south direction can be either extremely bad or extremely good, depending on the location.

2: Do not use flat features of the main door in South East, North West, and South West. According to many Vastu experts, a North East entrance is not always beneficial. Depending on its placement, it can be hazardous because it causes both accidents and financial losses. So, it would help if you chose it judiciously.

 3: The main door of your flat should always open in a clockwise direction. Do not place the main entrance in front of the staircase or lift. This is one of the major Vastu defects that give rise to property disputes.

4: Keep the main of your flat in good shape. Remember that it should not be broken or give a creaking sound. Do not place any God idol outside the main gate. Most people keep an idol of Lord Ganesha, which cannot be good, according to Vastu. 

5: One of the best Vastu myths is that Ganesh's idol installed at the gain gate will ward off all evil. This is a popular myth. Although it is not always possible to get a favourable main entrance in flats, it is possible to correct and rectify the unfavourable main entrances with effective remedies without shifting or breaking the entrance. 

Vastu for Kitchen Placements in Flats

Your kitchen is a small representation of the cosmic fire. The kitchen's right placement in a flat is of great importance to maintain the fire element in balance.

 Tips that you should remember for the kitchen placement in your flat according to Vastu:

1: A kitchen is the best in the South East to South directions.

2: If a kitchen is in the South East, you can go for other directions—North West and West directions.

3: While cooking, you must face East or North.

4: If your kitchen is facing South or South East, you must avoid black or blue coloured kitchen slab. 

5: Always avoid using granite under the gas burner. Rather, you should use a marble slab.

6: Always place your kitchen cabinets on the Southern wall.

7: Keep your mixer-grinder in the Eastern part of the kitchen.

8: Do not buy a blue or black refrigerator if you want to keep it in the kitchen.

Vastu for Pooja Room Placement in Flats

The West direction is one of the best directions for the placement of the Pooja room in flats. Lord Varun rules the west direction. He is also known to be the giver of wealth and prosperity. Moreover, He has the power to fulfil all your wishes.

Remember that the photos/idols of Gods should up to your chest height and not below that.

If your Pooja room lies in the North East direction, always avoid using red coloured cloth.

You may use light yellow, green, and blue shades in the East, North East, and West.

If your Pooja room lies in the East, then avoid using silver idols or utensils. Instead, use brass, copper, or steel.

Brass, gold, or silver utensils are ideal for a pooja room.

Do not keep two or more idols/photos of the same God or Goddesses.

Always place a wooden mandir in the East, North East, and South East. If your mandir lies in the West direction, use white marble.

Always keep your mandir illuminating with effervescent lights.

Do not place a pooja room or mandir next to the toilet or below your flat's staircase.

Vastu for Toilets/Bathroom Placement in Flats

As it is basic construction, the toilet pipelines should run from the ground floor to all the above floors in the same direction. So, it is difficult to relocate or change the toilets. Although it is rarely possible to place all the toiles in the right directions according to Vastu, you should be careful to choose the least unfavourable locations. 

Vastu for toilets/bathroom in flats: Tips to remember

Avoid toilet placement between North East, North, and South West directions. These can give rise to various health and financial problems.

The toilet seat should not be directed towards the toilet entrance door.

Construction of a toilet under the staircase is fine as long as the direction is right.

The toilet floor's slope should always be directed towards the East or North and not towards the West or South.

Choose the wall tiles very carefully for toilets, depending on the direction for its placement. 

If a toilet lies in East or North direction, use brown or blue tiles; if your toilet lies in South or South East, use yellow or orange tiles, and if your toilet lies in North West or West, use grey tiles. 

The toilet door should not open directly in the direction of the bed.

The commode or toilet seat should always be 1-2 feet higher than the floor level.

Vastu for Bedroom in Flats: Tips to remember

Do not make false ceilings directly above your bed. Too much of metal wires and strips are neither good for your health nor your slumber as they create lots of electromagnetic fields.

For wall paints, always use light shades in your bedroom. Darker shades cause disturbance to the mind and your ability to relax.

Avoid using metal beds. Always use wooden beds as they are a natural material and has higher positive vibrations than metals.

Do not use a box bed. The box lying below the bed prevents the circulation of energies and causes disturbances in sleep and gives rise to backaches.

Always sleep, with your head facing towards the South or East and never towards the North direction.

A mirror lying contrary to your bed is fine up to the time your bedroom lies in the East, West, or North directions. If your bedroom is in South West or South, do not place a mirror. 

Do not keep a water fountain in the bedroom. Remember that flowing water yields excessive energies, which can disturb your sleep. 

Fresh and blooming flowers decorated in the bedroom create abundance and bring in positive energies. 

Vastu for Colours and Wall Pains in Flats

When it is a matter of Vastu for apartments or flats, colours play a vital role. Always remember that a vital flat can either make you feel in seventh heaven or down in the mouth. Also, they play a vital role in your financial condition.

 Vastu for Colours in Flats: Tips to remember

Always use naturally made colours and keep distance from the omnipresent synthetic ones. They are harmful for your health as well as your mental peace

If your bedroom lies in the North direction, always use green, blue, white, and grey shades.

Green, beige, and brown are the ideal colours for your bedrooms in the East. If your bedroom lies in the South and South East direction, then always use brown, maroon, red, orange, light pink shades.

Golden, silver, grey shades are ideal for bedrooms placed in the West direction. 

An imbalance of colours in the form of coloured cabinets, curtains and upholstery, light bulbs, wall paints, etc. can give rise to turmoil in residents' lives. 

 Vastu for Cuts and Extensions in Flats

You are advised to avoid buying a flat that has high extensions and cuts in various directions. 

Neither a cut nor an extension is good for flats. So, it would help if you managed them effectively by using metals, colours, and mirrors.
