vastu yantra set4The Effects of Colours, Symbols and Words On Vastu Yantras

Colors:

  • Yantras may be multi-coloured or all one colour. Although yantras also have an effect when they are all one colour, the energetic influence and clarity are being amplified by the use of colours.
  • The colour spectrum represents the spectrum of the subtle energies. The colours are assigned to the different planets and each direction, and they will be used if the energy of a certain planet or direction is to manifest in the yantra. If you draw the same yantra in different colours, you will get yantras with slightly different effects.

Symbols:

  • Symbols are another important part of yantras, because they symbolize the subtle power of a certain planet, entity or object. Traditionally such symbols are being used all over the world in geomantics in order to influence the energies of the earth and space.
  • The power of symbols is not exclusively due to their psychological effect, because otherwise it would not be possible to prove some effect on plants or other natural energetic systems independent of a human observer. However, various scientific methods have brought about such proofs in numerous cases.
  • For years the Slowenic geomantic Marko Pogacnik has been performing geomantic healings of landscapes, places, cities, forests and parks in many parts of the world, simply by carving symbols of nature’s elements and natural entities in stone and placing them in points which are energetically effective, the acupuncture points of the respective energetic system. The effects of his earth acupuncture is so convincing that even city councils and administrations ask Pogacnik to perform such landscape healings in their areas.

Words:

  • The written word has a great effect in the subtle realm, because it carries its meaning in a fine energetic vibration. That means that the effect of a writing does not necessarily depend on someone reading and understanding it, but that is has an effect beyond consciousness.
  • For instance, if you write down words with a positive meaning such as love, hope, kindness, belief, mercy on a piece of paper and put a glass of water on it, the positive vibration of these words will be transferred to the water. This transfer can be amplified or accelerated, by lightly striking the glass with a spoon. You will get the same effect if you write down these words on a bottle of water in which the water is being stored. The positive effect of such affirmations can be proven by the aid of modern photographic methods. Water exposed to positive affirmations crystallizes in wonderfully beautiful harmonious forms, whereas water exposed to negative affirmations crystallizes in disharmonious, chaotic forms.
  • For this reason, most yantras contain written elements in addition to the geometric elements and symbols. In general these writings are in Sanskrit, as it has an especially energetic effect. The letters of Sanskrit are vibration images representing the sound image of the corresponding sound. Sanskrit words or sentences written or pronounced, aiming at manifesting a certain energy, power or entities, are called mantras. A mantra is a written or spoken sound vibration, which has the power to free the mind. According to Vedic tradition every energy, power or entity has its own mantra, by which it can be addressed.

Planets:

  • In the Vedic world view, every planet is dominated by a certain aspect of God. These aspects are presented in the form of the 10 of the twelve Vastu yantras. It is completely safe to apply them, they cannot have any negative effects, because they do not simply amplify the power of the planet they represent, but balance it in an intelligent way. For instance, if a certain planet is weak in your horoscope, it will be strengthened by the yantra. If a planet is acting negatively due to it being in an ‘attacked’ position by another planet, then its effect can be neutralised.
  • You can apply the yantras according to a very simple principle. If you find a Vastu defect in the house or on the plot, you find out first which planet is affected by this. Once you have identified one or more planets, you place a yantra to the spot affected respectively. In most cases you fix the yantra on the wall; the height of the yantra depends on the yantra selected.
  • The following list provides an overview for the height of each yantra. The details given below refer to the body parts of a person most affected by the planets.

Vastu And Living With The Nine Planets

Living with nine planets

  • According to the scientific principles of Vastu all forces and influences of the universe which have an effect on us, can also be found inside the house.
  • By the help of the effective and simple system of the nine planets of our Sun system, we can very easily understand these influences. We can refer to the astrological systems of all cultures, they describe very precisely the forces acting upon us, influencing our fate binding us, as do ‘invisible’ threads in a spiders web.
  • All areas of our living space are represented by the nine planets and their interactions, so their positions can be seen ‘reflected’ in your life situations at home or work.
  • Any given space is divided into twelve segments. Each representing one of the twelve zodiac signs. Your ascendant or rising sign is situated in the East of your home. Northeast represented by the second and third houses. The fourth house is delineated by the North of your premises. etc.
  • Just as various aspects of life are dominated by individual planets, building orientation, room functions, building materials and other details such as objects within your house are also under the influence of a certain planet. Inside any given space or your house, there is a lively exchange between these energies and also between the nine planets by which we are affected. Your dwelling place acts like a lens which focuses the influences of the nine planets on all the residents, allowing them to feel these interactions.
  • For instance, if you are in a North room in the  of the house, you are automatically under the influence of Mercury, the presiding planet of the North. You can choose to set up an office here with the intention of administering your finances. You can receive support from the Mercurial energies which are very beneficial for this endeavour, since Mercury also fosters financial affairs in general. In this case you must see to it that the North is being designed according to Vastu principles.             You can tap into the creative, feminine and healing energies from the North which originates from the centre of the Earth to assist you in communications and general office work.  A computer is a compatible object with Mercury who is also responsible for communications. An office in the South is dominated by Mars planet and is under other influences. Mars tends to foster more pragmatic aspects of life connected to work, research or technology.
  • The following table assigns the dominating planets to each direction:

               Direction — Dominating planet

East ————Sun

 Southeast —-Venus

South———-Mars

Southwest—-Rahu

 West———-Saturn

Northwest—-Moon

     North———-Mercury

          Northeast–—-Jupiter/Ketu

  • The eight directional compass points and their planetary correlations reveals a deeper understanding of their attributes and their effects on the inhabitants. A list of body parts of a person most affected by the planets can be found here. However, it is necessary here to know the most the important qualities of the nine planets which are paramount in Vedic astrology. 
  • Your personal astrology data is used to determine your own personal best directions within any given space. By understanding the quality and division of space we can know how to utilise it for our benefit for optimal directional empowerment.
  • It is important to understand that ultimately planets do not force us to act. They merely reflect the frequency with which we are resonating within our karmic journey at a specific time and space (location).
  • The practical application of this wonderful science enables us to reap the benefits of the positive planetary influences available to us. We can minimise their potential negative aspects with knowledge of Vastu principles and transform your space like an alchemist.

Parashuram Yantra

Parashuram Yantra

 

Parashuram Yantra  The Southeast is ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty which represents our sense of harmony, passion and enjoyment. On the material level, Venus stands for sexuality, wealth and beauty, while on a inner level it represents devotion to truth and spiritual sciences. It mainly affects women, children and the second son within your home.

The do’s

This area is well suited for a kitchen, since the creative energies of cooking are complemented by the Venetian influence .                                                                       In the home, it is a good idea to keep this area clean, tidy, and you may place diamonds, artefacts or images depicting qualities of Venus. You can use the colours of the rainbow, turquoise and silver, as well as extract from the Yantra above for choice of decor within this room.

 The don’ts

If you can refrain from storing sell by date food or fresh food on the Southeast point of your home or kitchen, this would give it a longer life, however storage of cooking oils is fine . Agni, the celestial deity in charge of fire element pervades this area, therefore in order to avoid a clash of elements, water is also not stored on or near this point.

Possible Negative Outcome

Weak Vastu in this area may lead your business to have drawn out transactions and slumping of stocks and investments. In terms of your health , eye infections, kidney and reproductive problems as well as lethargy may manifest and uncontrolled sexuality.

Remedy

Whilst chanting the Parashuram mantra you can place this Yantra, on a Friday, in the Southeast point of your home or work place thus nullifying any Vastu discrepancies on the energetic and karmic levels and thereby create a space where you can get in touch with the higher qualities of Venus.

Any severe spatial defects can be further transformed and harmonised with the installation of the Vastu pyramid in the centre of your property or on the southeast compass point point and it will work in conjunction with the Parashuram yantra on your wall.

The Positive outcome

Strong Vastu in this area leads to fulfilment of your desires, popularity, generosity and emotional control as well as supporting good energy levels for all residents of the house. It enhances loving relationships, friendly interactions and awards comfort, luxury and sensuality, creating a space in which to have fun, love and more joy in your life.

 

 

15 ways To Energise Your Home

How Can You Energise Your Home?

When houses or offices are built without considering the harmonisation of Nature’s multifarious influences, it is usually impossible to change certain structural and physical attributes, for instance the building orientation and shape of the entire building.         However, there are many other physical and subtle ‘to do’s’ you can see listed below. These can be implemented or suggested during your Vastu Consultation to maximise positive energy flow within your space. Some adjustments may be considered drastic, while others can be quite simple. If you have the means, they can be well worth the endeavour due to the manifestation of the many positive results in your life.

  • Adjusting land shapes and Slopes– use of fencing, build brick walls and adding or subtracting earth
  • Indoor Structural Changes-put up walls to block negative energy flow or tear down walls to allow the positive to enter and circulate.
  • Balance the Five Great Elements– introduce the five material elements into your space to support the subtle presiding ones in each direction e.g. flowing water feature in the North, whose elements are Air and water, for increased cash flow and improved communications.
  • Correcting with Colours-match the planetary colours of any direction to strengthen your area e.g. Mars presides in the South and the colour is red, offering you prosperity and protection.
  • Opening with Mirrors– they act like windows to open up the positive sectors of your space.gold mirror
  • Adopting Behavioural Changes– e.g. Avoid inappropriate use of ‘negative’ areas that generate inauspicious energy e.g. using an alternative entrance with a more positive energy flow to building. 
  • Energising with natural images-e.g. Place photographs, paintings, artefacts or deities which represent the qualities of any given direction. E.g. A Buddha murti in the North or Venetian artefact depicting sensual enjoyment in the Southeast (Venus).
lilyNot only does the Peace Lily send up beautiful flowers, but they’re impossible to kill and have great air cleaning abilities. They flower through most of the  summer and prefer shady spots with moist but not soggy soil. It removes ammonia, benzene, formaldehyde and trichloroethylene.
  • Using Plants-e.g. Plants can assist to balance the bio-energetic fields, absorb radiation, and clean the air of toxins and chemicals in your space. And e.g. large potted plants with huge leaves can reduce the negative energy potential of negative sectors.
  • Assigning Crystals and Gems-each direction has its own specific crystal or gemstone, which can ‘power’ your space and absorb negativity e.g. in the Northwest the Moon planet’s gemstones are Pearl and Moonstone, which when installed properly, can positively affect our mental and emotional equilibrium, thus provide you with an atmosphere for loving and peaceful relationships.
  • Space Clearing Ceremony-A spiritual ceremony with bells and incense etc can clear old stagnant energies and revitalise your space- (see link)
