If there are serious defects, such as cut-off corners and improper placement of rooms and systems, the home may be renovated. But if there are too many defects and there is no budget for such extensive renovation, or when it concerns an apartment in a multi-story building where exterior walls cannot be touched, it is better to sell the property and find a new one.
When renovating a home, attention should be paid to the following principles:
The entrance door – If someone wishes to install another door, the first door may remain, provided that it is located in a positive place, such as the east or the north. One may select materials and color for the door according to the directions: in the north, it is recommended that the door have metallic and silver shades; in the east, it is recommended that the door have wooden tones; in the south, it is recommended that the door have wooden or metallic tones; and in the west, it is recommended that the door have metallic tones. It should also be ensured that the new door is not placed near areas unsuitable for an entrance (for example, near the kitchen). An entrance through the kitchen creates a serious defect. Additionally, one must ensure that no door in the house opens toward the southwest.
One must ensure that there are not three doors in the hallway facing the same direction.
Windows – If one is interested in adding additional windows, it is better to do so in northern and eastern areas, rather than in southern and western ones. Also, if enlarging the opening of any window, it is better not to do so in negative areas such as the south, west, and southwest. Ideally, the number of windows should be even. When replacing windows, this work should be completed on the south, west, or southwest side.
Floor replacement – It is better to refrain from using gray and black colors, as they absorb all positive energies from the home. Floors are influenced by the element of earth, therefore various earthy tones may be very beneficial. It is also forbidden to use white granite in the home, as it is commonly used in religious buildings such as churches, mosques, and temples. One must also avoid types of granite used for monuments and tombstones in cemeteries.
Exterior walls – There must not be five corners or more (during renovation and after it).
General Recommendations:
During renovation, one must maintain a good mood and calmness. Nervousness and anger carry negative energies capable of harming the renovation and rendering it useless.
Before beginning renovation, one must ensure that no new defects will arise because of the changes.
Renovation and the various modifications should be carried out in such a way that they fully suit all people living in the home.
It is forbidden to add bathrooms and toilets in unsuitable places, especially in the northeast and the southwest.
One must not build a kitchen, toilet, room, staircase, or pillar in the center of the house.
It is necessary to consult professionals to obtain the required permits for changes in the home. For example, no wall may be demolished without the approval of an engineer. Demolition of structural walls may cause enormous damage to the house or building.
Astro Vastu
Every person feels harmony differently and understands something personal under this word, something that differs from others. This happens for a simple reason – each person is individual and has his own horoscope. Therefore, the planning and design of a home must suit each person separately.
