Besides bones, coal, ash, some animal fossils and kaudi in the ground act as shalya. A furnace (bhatti) left buried under a building ruins the family and the business, and kaudi must never be buried, although gomti chakra can be.
Underground in any plot
On tilted plots, directions and zones must be read in degrees with a compass. Vedic vastu never says to treat any corner as Ishaan or to accept a direction however tilted it is, and a wrong reading leads to costly and harmful changes.
In astro vastu any person can be placed in any zone according to the birth chart. Even the South-South-West suits a person whose Rahu is exalted, but a person with debilitated Rahu should not sleep, sit or run a business in the South-West.
South-West and South-South-West bedrooms and seats, and South-West facing properties
Yellow mustard (Siddhartha) is the main protective and success-giving mustard; the red and brown mustard used in cooking also serves for nazar; white mustard, now rare in India, carries the strongest Moon influence and is the best for business success.
Colour changes the speed of work: in a warehouse, the same labourers loaded goods from a red godown in about half the time they needed in a light violet one.
Warehouses, godowns, factories and work areas
The first principle of interior vastu: identify the element of the person, of the structure being built and of the activity done there, and make sure these elements are friends.
Any room or structure: bedroom, office, kitchen, factory, study table
The earth element has a square shape, golden yellow colour, South-West location and brass as its metal; land energy, plot shape, slope, surroundings, POP plaster and the dehleez represent it.
South-West
The elephant represents Rahu, so elephant statues or hanging-elephant bandhanwar (toran) do not suit every home, especially where the family's Rahu is debilitated.
Doors, walls and any place where toran or statues are hung
Every trade belongs to a planet; using that planet's colour, shape, artefacts, paintings, metals, mirrors and glass at the business multiplies its energy, while a clashing colour can shut it down.
Shops, offices, factories and petrol pumps
A triangle is the fire element's shape; a main gate built as a triangle for an owner of the water element turned a large factory into an NPA.
Main gate of a factory or house
Sunlight falls first on the walls and the wall colour reflects energy onto the people, so colours of the element opposite to the owner's rashi or kundli can ruin an otherwise good vastu.
Walls, furniture and curtains of every zone
Before any interior, fix the goal of the space, study the owner's kundali, check the current (energy) flow and base every arrangement, colour and artifact on planet combinations. Harmful yogas of the kundali must never be recreated with artifacts, while good yogas should be built.
Whole interior of a home, shop or factory
The element friendship chart is also the basis of compatibility: two people of the same element or of friendly elements (water with earth, fire with air) keep a heart-to-heart bond. Compare the rashi elements of both before a marriage, partnership or close friendship.
The janma rashi (Moon sign) runs the whole life and is used for stable works such as house construction muhurta and marriage, while the rashi of the name in use can be used for business records. Naming a child by the janma rashi keeps the person's element unchanged.
North is Kuber's treasury: Kuber promises to keep the store full but asks for hard work, giving opportunities for work and business, so it is the zone of opportunity and money. Keep the North light, low and open, with water and greenery.
North zone of the house
NW brings prana and fresh air and pushes stale air out, so cross ventilation is a must; the teacher calls it the gateway (get-away) zone. It is a natural fridge for storing grain and the Moon's place, which makes it the ideal zone for the overhead tank.
North-West zone of the house
Stairs are excellent in SSW (the heavier the better) and good to very good in South, SW, WSW, West, WNW and NW; they must never be in the NE zone, the Brahmasthan, the North or right in front of the main door.
Staircase location in the house grid
Stairs represent Mercury (Budh), the planet that lifts people up and gives success in business; they join underground energy with cosmic energy. Wrongly placed stairs stall business, obstruct children's education and spoil relations with sisters, daughters and paternal aunts.
Staircase
The office colour is taken from the lord of the 11th house (gains) or the 10th house (work), or from the planet of the business itself, choosing the one the horoscope supports.
Office walls and interiors
East is the ideal drawing room zone, North suits business talks and the NE gives peace, while the SE, SSW and WNW are poor; a room energised with crystallised quartz can work almost anywhere.
Best: East. Good: North, NNE, NE, ENE, NNW, West, WSW, South (not too open). Moderate: SSE, SW, NW. Poor: ESE, SE, SSW, WNW.
Business is ruled by Budh (Mercury), which wood represents, so office tables and furniture should be made of the best solid wood such as teak, without black or grey glass tops.
Office table, wardrobes and furniture; study tables
An office must be full of energy, with the chairman's cabin longer on the North-South axis, the owner facing North, proper ventilation, perfectly level furniture and a floor sloping to the North-East.
Office, especially the director's or chairman's cabin
Each zone favours a particular kind of office: East for administration, North for finance, West for engineering and profit, WSW for every office, SW for employment and stability and ENE for media.
Excellent: East, West, WSW, SW, North. Moderate: SSE, NNW, NW (transport). Avoid: SE, SSW (unless energised with quartz), WNW.
Large business doors and shop shutters often span two to four padas. When the favourable pada, for example S4, is fully included and open, the door gives the results of that pada.
Business main doors and shop shutters
In the South only S4 (Grihakshat) gives happiness, peace, prosperity and business profit. S2, S3, S5, S6, S7 (the debt door) and S8 bring lack of children, servitude, suffering, selfishness, debt and disease.
Main door on the South side, from the South-East corner to the South-West corner
In the West, W4 (Pushpadant) showers wealth and W5 (Varun) also gives wealth, while W1, W2, W3, W6, W7 and W8 bring short life, overspending, loss of money, government trouble, disease and a destructive mind.

For business, use the colour and metal of the 10th lord in clothes and in the business interior.
Business premises and office
The 11th house rules gains; use the colour of its lord for business, and choose a shop or office in the direction where that lord sits in the chart.
Shop or office direction
Each trade has a supporting colour: yellow for every business, red for jewellery, chemicals, sweets and fire-related work, white for education, cloth and stationery, and green for health; black and grey only in small amounts.
Shops, offices, packaging, logos and sign boards
Kota stone (about 40 percent lime and 22 percent silica) is cool and full of good energy; it represents Mercury and is the best stone for stairs and business floors, especially in green.
Staircase, business premises and warehouses
Fire had been put into the water zone. The North is the direction of opportunity, so although the plant can run 24 hours a day for 30 days and makes top-quality goods, it was running at only 25 to 30 percent of capacity because orders and opportunities were not coming.
Such slopes explain the trouble. How to correct the slope fully, or partly when a full correction is not possible, is taught in the treatment classes. Slope plays a very big role: maintaining the slope alone removes about 50 percent of zone defects.
Take the pendulum with all its precautions and ask, for example: should I open a general store? If yes, turn clockwise; if no, anticlockwise. If it turns clockwise, select that business. Do not ask the next question at once; dip the pendulum in salt water again first. It can also tell whether a running business will do well later.
Every place, down to a tiny particle, has its own chemistry created by the sun, the moon and the planets, and work done in line with that chemistry goes very well, just as a chemistry formula needs its ingredients in a fixed ratio. Land is the biggest source of energy, whether it is called a devta or energy; activating the devta of a particular location and using it for its own type of work brings success in education, spirituality, business, politics and every other field. Energy works only when it is taken in, as dry fruits kept at home give energy only when eaten, so the devtas have to be activated.
Burn a little peeli sarson at Parjanya's place: if it bursts out in sharp sparks that touch the body, Parjanya is upset or imbalanced, which is why the machines there break down and do not give production. If the trees of the house do not reach their proper height or bear good fruit, Parjanya is displeased. Parjanya is active when a little original chandan applied there spreads its fragrance through the whole house and the residents' wishes come true.
Parjanya works like a seed in soil: a seed sown too deep gives no crop, which is why farmers sow only three to five angul (about 5 to 6 inches) deep. Quartz points placed five angul (of the house owner) down, touching the soil, give production and remove obstacles in work; buried deeper, Parjanya gives no result. Many people bury items without results because they do not know the right method and its reason.
Especially people whose wishes are not coming true or whose production is not happening. A shining white gandharva nagar picture at Parjanya fulfils wishes like a kalpavriksha, completes stuck work, brings back stuck money, helps sell a property that is not selling, builds market image and gets goods and machine production moving.
Shikhi devta (E1) is directly linked to Jupiter-related businesses such as accounts, banking and education, and supports big industries and factories. Jayant (E3) gives the most success in light-weight goods, plastic items and the paper and plastic industries, and the steel industry was named next. Mahendra (E4) suits people who need a job or service, especially government jobs, contracts and tenders, and Surya (E5) rules politics, administration and government work. A chart showing the business and bhog samagri under every devta was promised.
Yes, dig vandana with yellow mustard helps. The biggest brahmastra for labour problems is a mustard oil lamp lit in the South-East (Agni kon), because Saturn rules labour and mustard oil belongs to Saturn; a black lamp is even better.
Yes. A loan is cleared only when the business starts running, and gomti chakra and yellow mustard help the business a lot.
Because the interior changes colours, furniture directions, tiles and artefacts without regard to the owner's element and planets. Often the colours belong to the element opposite to the owner's, artefacts are combined wrongly, or harmful adhesives, lights and lead-based paints are used. One client who spent 60 to 80 lakh on an interior saw his loans turn NPA and his wife leave; his whole house had been painted in the colours of his opposite element.
In Marwari the staircase is called naal, and the saying means that whoever has a staircase directly facing the main door has death hovering over the head, so mishaps keep happening. Marwaris decide where the naal will go even before the door when planning a house, because the stairs run the business. In one house with stairs right at the front main door, many children fell and were hurt, and there were accidents and even a suicide.
