Vastu Shastra is the ancient Indian science of architecture and spatial harmony that guides how buildings and spaces should be designed to promote health, prosperity, and well-being. Rooted in Vedic traditions, Vastu combines principles of architecture, geometry, and natural elements—earth, water, fire, air, and space—to create balance between human life and the environment.
According to Vastu, the placement of rooms, doors, windows, and furniture influences the flow of positive energy (prana) in a home or workspace. By aligning structures with cosmic directions and natural forces, it aims to bring peace, success, and happiness to the occupants.
