Undoubtedly, Vaastu is one of the important limbs of Vedic Astrology. Just as Astrology considers nine planets; so also there are nine directions in Vaastu. Each planet rules a particular direction. If you visit a Hindu temple, you will notice the idols of the navagrahas ie. the 9 planets placed facing the directions that they rule.

DIRECTIONS IN VAASTU:

 

 

The nine directions in Vaastu are East, West, North, South, North-East, North-West, South-East, South-West and the Central part also known as Brahma Sthala. Each direction has a specific significance. Furthermore, every direction is ruled by a specific deity and is dominated by a particular tatwa or element. Only when the five elements are in perfect harmony does life move in a balanced and harmonious manner.
