Vastu Tips - Residential
Kitchen/ Dining:
- Kitchen should be in the southeast portion of the house. The main entrance to the kitchen should be in the north, east or in the northeast direction.
- The second best position is the North West corner. Never have a kitchen in the North East portion or the central portion of the home (Brahmsthan).
- There should be no toilets adjoining, above or below the kitchen.
- The lady should face east while cooking, for it brings good health to her. Cooking in north is also alright. If the lady faces west while cooking it may lead to health problems to ladies; while cooking with the face towards south may lead to financial problems in the family.
- If the family is having meals in the kitchen then they should never face south while eating. This can lead to stomach problems.
- The cooking platform should not touch the wall but should be placed at least 8 cm (3 inches) from the wall.
- Cooking Gas/Range should be in the south-east part of the kitchen and should not be visible to the naked eyes from the outside. Hence always shield the kitchen from the outsiders.
- Gas Cylinder should be kept in south-east. Empty Cylinder should be kept in south-west.
- Big windows and ventilators should be in the east direction, while smaller windows should be in south. Exhaust fan should be installed on the eastern wall in the south-east corner.
- It's best to have the kitchen sink in the northeast direction. If there is a dishwasher in the kitchen then place it in the northwest side of the kitchen. Drinking water and water filter should be placed in the northeast direction.
- There should be abundant use of green in the kitchen. For example green granite for flooring or green pictures. This helps improve the appetite of the family members and also promotes peace and harmony in the house.
- If the refrigerator is a part of the kitchen then place it in the southwest direction. Exhaust fans in the kitchen should always be put on the eastern walls in the southeast corner. Other electrical appliances like microwave can be put in the southeast corner.
- If possible, the cooking gas and the washing sink should not be kept very close to each other. The logic being fire and water always repel each other.
- The cooking stove should not be visible to the naked eyes from the outside. Hence always shield the kitchen from the outsiders.
- There should be no leaking taps in the kitchen. This affects the money flow.
- If you have cabinets in the northeast side then use it for storing light things only. If your kitchen has overhead storage cupboards then avoid having them over the cooking range.
- East, south or west portion of the house are for the dining rooms.
- The dining table, preferably a rectangular one should be so arranged that the master of the house, or his wife or eldest son occupies the south of south-west or west of south-west chair in the room.
- The kitchen should always receive natural air and sunlight.
- If the kitchen is adjoining a bedroom, the wall between them should be thicker than other walls.
