Why is the popular red bulb in the South-East rejected?
A zero-watt red bulb has no strength to add fire: even if someone keeps it lit for a whole year, nothing warms up. Such formulas are baseless practices carried on in the name of vastu and should be thrown out; Geo Vastu exists to remove this kind of darkness.

A refrigerator is cold, so why can it be placed in the fire zone, and where should it go?
Cold is produced from heat and a refrigerator cannot run without fire, so it can be placed in the South-East of the kitchen. Using the kitchen's own grid, it can also go in the West, and the North-West is ideal according to astrology.
Can pastel pink be used in a South-East kitchen?
Yes, pink can be used in a South-East kitchen, but only a very mild, light pink.
Does increasing the energy of the South-East or South-South-East raise the chance of theft, fire or accidents?
No, this idea is wrong and should be removed from the mind. An element's own zone can bear any amount of that element: kitchens burn daily in the South-East, factories run furnaces there day and night, and a plant in Goa melts quartz in its South-East without such problems; high mountains in the South-West only strengthen the earth element there.
If the Ambani kitchen uses white in the South-East, why should others use ivory?
In that horoscope the Moon is exalted and forms a strong Gaj Kesari yoga, so white does not harm them; you should use ivory. A white platform alone does not make anyone rich, nor does a platform alone make anyone a pauper: vastu is not everything and nothing is greater than karma. Vastu supports those whose karma is good, and its four controlling factors are dravya, kshetra, kaal and bhaav (substance, place, time and intention).
Is a tall chimney in the South-East a dosh?
No. In practice even very tall chimneys in the SE showed no dosh, because the fire element always goes upward, as swar vigyan also shows; a rising chimney suits fire.
Is it right to build a temple in the kitchen?
No, building a temple in the kitchen is not right at all. Keep only a small kalash in the Agni kon (South-East) and a small photo of your guru there; that is not a temple. Guru (Jupiter) and Mars are friends, so the guru's grace supports the kitchen.
