What is Vastu ?

“The universe only pretends to be made of matter.
Secretly, it is made of love.”
                                                                     ~ Hafiz, Sufi poet

Les Vastu Shastra, (vãstu sãstra - literally "science of dwelling") are texts on the traditional Indian system of architecture. These texts describe principles of design, layout, measurements, ground preparation, space arrangement, and spatial geometry. The designs aim to integrate architecture with nature, the relative functions of various parts of the structure, and ancient beliefs utilising geometric patterns (yantras or mandalas), symmetry, and directionnal alignments.

​

By elevating the vibrations of our home or work place to its optimal level and by tuning it with the energy of nature and the cosmos, Vastu directly impacts the energy of the people who live or work there and it will have an effect on several areas such as health, quality of life, security, stability, material abundance, conflict resolution, project advancement and spiritual evolution. Vastu connects us to our deepest nature and puts the "sacred" back at the heart of our homes.

 

Vastu will act in three distinct ways on our properties:

  • The structure (the land, the direction, the placement of the elements, the positioning of the house/offices on a lot, the flow of energy, etc.).

  • The human influence (Vastu releases the negative energies by removing dramatic or stressful memories, etc.).

  • The psychic (subtle presences, etc.).

 

Three main tools are used during a vastu correction:

  • Copper, which can either boost energy or calm it down (static or dynamic house) and in any case, make it circulate throughout the house.

  • Marble, which is extremely powerful and will work with magnetic fields.

  • Mandalas, which will act as acupuncture points on the memories and chakras (energy centers) of a place. These mandalas have a remarkable cleaning power in living spaces.

 

Our bodies cannot live without breathing. It is the same for our homes! If the energy of a house (or land) does not circulate, this space can become harmful, or even toxic for our physical and mental health. Vastu allows us to put the "machine back in motion", to harmonize our living space by unblocking these dormant, lifeless and sometimes harmful zones by making the vital energy of the place circulate and dance. Our home as well as our body is an invaluable ally to our aspirations and well-being.
