Vastu Rules for South Facing Houses: South-facing houses are often regarded with skepticism in Vastu Shastra; however, with the right design, they can be as auspicious as houses facing any other direction. Acharya Devraj Ji, recognized as one of India's foremost Vastu authorities, asserts that such homes can indeed be fortunate if Vastu principles are correctly applied. The key is to balance the strong energies associated with the south. The main door should be positioned in the fourth pada (step) of the south direction for optimal results.
Acharya Devraj ji believes that in south facing houses windows should be larger on the north and east sides to allow beneficial sunlight and energies to enter. The kitchen should be located in the southeast, the area of Agni (fire), to promote health and wellbeing. Bedrooms are best in the southwest to ensure stability and grounding in life. Water features like fountains or underground tanks should ideally be in the north or east to maximize positive energy flow. Heavy structures or storerooms should be in the southern parts of the house to balance energies. With these guidelines from Acharya Devraj Ji, residents in south-facing houses can thrive and find success.
Stair Placement in South Facing Houses: In a home facing south, the staircase should be positioned in the southern part of the building, according to the principles of Vastu Shastra. This area can support the weight and movement without disrupting the house’s positive energy dynamics. The stairs should ideally ascend towards the south and should be painted in lighter colors to maintain the balance and harmony of the home. It is also important that the staircase is not directly in front of the main entrance, as this can lead to energy draining directly upstairs, bypassing the main living areas. A proper staircase placement according to Vastu can greatly influence the overall wellbeing and prosperity of the household.
