In Vaastu Shastra, a certain direction has been fixed for every corner and every room of the house, which if arranged according to the rules, keeps positive energy flowing in the house and there is no hindrance in the progress of the family members. In this sequence, the best direction for the kitchen is considered to be south-east i.e. the fiery angle, because the lord of this direction is Agni Dev and it is considered to be the center of energy and heat. In modern times, due to the design of modern flats, apartments or maps, it is not possible for every house to have a kitchen in the south-east direction and many times the kitchen is built in the north-east, north or south-west direction, due to which, according to Vastu experts, the effect of negative energy in the house can increase and one may have to face health related problems or financial crisis. If the kitchen of your house is not in the south-east corner, then you do not need to worry at all because there are some simple and surefire remedies mentioned in Vastu Shastra, by adopting which you can easily remove this defect without any major change.
According to the experts of Vastu science, if the kitchen is built in the wrong direction like North-East i.e. North-East, then it adversely affects the health of the head of the house and the members and causes mental stress. Similarly, if the kitchen is in the south-west direction, it leads to sourness and discord in family relationships because the south-west direction is considered the place of ancestors and stability, where the presence of fire disturbs the balance of energy. However, in today’s time when people buy readymade flats due to lack of space, it is not possible for everyone to follow every rule of Vastu 100%. In such a situation, various measures and remedial elements are used to neutralize the defects arising due to the wrong direction of the kitchen, which work to balance the flow of energy so that the people living in the house do not have to face any kind of unwanted problems.
The first and easiest way to remove the Vaastu defect of a kitchen situated in the wrong direction is to change the color scheme and lighting of your kitchen. Since the Agniya angle is related to the fire element, if your kitchen is in any other direction, then color the walls there in red, pink, orange or light yellow, as these colors represent fire energy. Apart from this, the artificial lighting in the kitchen should be such that it always feels energetic and bright, due to which the effect of negative energy automatically reduces. If you want, you can always keep a small red bulb or night lamp on in the south-east corner of the kitchen or install a device that helps in balancing the energy of the fire element. According to Vaastu, colors have a deep impact on our life and mentality, so by choosing the right colors, you can turn the energy of the house in a positive direction to a great extent and reduce the effect of Vaastu defects without any damage.
In Vastu Shastra, the pyramid technique and crystals have been considered very effective in correcting the defects of the directions, especially when you do not want to make any alterations in the walls or structure of the house. If your kitchen is not in the south-east direction, then with the advice of a good Vastu expert, you can install copper, brass or special energy Vastu pyramids in the kitchen, which work to activate the energy of the area in the right direction. Apart from this, you can also use natural crystals that increase positive energy in the kitchen or other energetic symbols associated with Vastu, which keep the environment of the house pure by absorbing negative waves. While doing these remedies, it is very important to keep in mind that special care should be taken about the cleanliness of the kitchen, because dirt and false utensils, if kept in the wrong direction, increase the effect of Vaastu Dosh manifold, hence the kitchen should always be kept clean and organized.
In the kitchen, mainly gas stove and electric appliances like microwave, oven, mixer grinder and induction play an important role, because all these appliances are symbols of fire and energy. If your kitchen is not in the southeast corner, then you should at least try to make the position of your gas stove favorable to Vastu, like while cooking, your face should be towards the east, which is considered the best. Apart from this, heavy electrical appliances kept in the kitchen should always be kept near the south or west facing wall, while light and water related appliances like RO or water purifier should be installed in the north or north-east direction. By implementing these small and practical changes in your daily life, you can maintain the Vaastu balance of the house and avoid the negative consequences of Vaastu defects without any major changes.
