Vaastu Remedies for North East Defects

The north-east (Ishanya) is the most sacred zone, governing health, wisdom and growth. Defects here are considered the most important to correct.

  • A toilet or septic tank in the north-east
  • A kitchen in the north-east
  • A cut or missing north-east corner
  • Heavy furniture, storage or a staircase in the north-east
  • An overhead water tank above the north-east
  • Clutter, dirt or darkness in the north-east

Remedies

  • Remove clutter and heavy objects from the north-east.
  • Keep it clean, bright and light-coloured.
  • Place a water feature, aquarium or bowl of water in the north-east.
  • Use it for prayer or meditation.
  • For a toilet here, keep it very clean, use light colours and apply remedies like a lead strip as advised.
  • For a cut, use mirrors on the north and east walls to visually extend the area.
  • Place a crystal or a Vaastu pyramid in the north-east.

Spiritual remedies

Lighting a lamp, chanting mantras and offering water to the sun in the morning are traditional ways to strengthen the north-east.
