Vāstu Shastra Tools
Tools grounded in classical vāstu-śāstra — Mayamatam, Mānasāra, Bṛhat Saṃhitā — with modern architectural application.
Vāstu-śāstra is the classical Indian body of architectural rules. Its foundational texts — Mayamatam, Mānasāra, Bṛhat Saṃhitā, and the Vāstu-sūtra Upaniṣad — lay out how built space should be organised to match the Vāstu-puruṣa-maṇḍala: an 8×8 or 9×9 grid that maps each direction, zone, and the central brahmasthāna to a presiding deity and an elemental correspondence.
The tools on this page apply these rules to everyday questions: the numerological signature of your house number, where a specific room (kitchen, bedroom, pūjā area, office) should sit within the home's eight directions, and how to diagnose which direction a particular problem is coming from. Each recommendation traces back to classical placement rules — āgneya for fire (kitchen in the southeast), īśānya for study and worship (northeast), nairṛtya for heavy storage (southwest) — rather than generic modern Feng Shui adaptations.
