As per Hinduism, Vaastu is the most considered deity which is a must thing to worship on every office or house inauguration. It is a belief that Vaastu Purush is a Lord of directions (Kuber) that helps to remove the obstacles and brings success as well as happiness.

As we know there are various directions according to Vaastu and every corner has its own importance. Here you will learn about the significance of southeast direction in Vastu, commonly known as the Agnikone/ Agni kon (Agni/fire). First of all always make sure that the kitchen should never be located in the north-east direction (it brings poverty and sickness) instead north-west is the alternate option.  The area at an angle of 45 degree that lies between the south and east direction of a house is the south-east space. Fire/Agni is the God of this space.

Vastu tips for the Agni-kon as per the Vastu consultant in India

1.    As per the architectural values, the food which is cooked should not be visible to the outsiders, so the cooking gas/ stove should be placed in the east – south direction accordingly.   

2.    Mostly in early days, we have seen our grandparents locating the worship room in the kitchen it was because the kitchen is the purest place of the house. It is important to note that the worship space should not be formulated above the gas stove or the sink area in the kitchen as it is a sign of food loss.

3.    Since water is essential for cooking the north-east direction should be accommodated for the drinking water.    

4.    As with the technology advancement, we became used too of microwaves/ OTG/ griller/ mixer grinder like electronic equipment. So, its placement is also equally important as per the Vastu, East-south or the South corner is the best for it.

5.    We rarely found the picture of goddess these days in the kitchen but since Lord Anapurna is the whole ruler of food her picture should be present in the Kitchen.    

If you own a duplex house always remember that your bedroom should not be above the kitchen, and if so, make sure the bed should never be above the stove. Again the toilet should not be above the cooking area. Next moving towards the color – the light color such as green, orange and yellow etc are perfect nourishing instead of dark shades like black, dark blue, coffee brown, dark grey. Also, it is important to notice that the toilet door should not be open facing to the kitchen.      

A wrong Vaastu leaves a negative impact on the family here are a few of them:

•    Wrong color choice makes the house lady inactive and unhappy

•    The wrong direction of the stove doesn’t lead to cooking tasty food

•    The Northwest side is the next best alternate option for the kitchen but it keeps the house lady busy in the kitchen for most of the time

Since Agni refers to fire or the Sun we can say as it is the God of light and energy if it is maintained well it brings progeny, peace, and prosperity and makes the person economically strong as well. Water, fire, and wind are the 3 important opponents and since north-west area flow the most air it is not appropriate for the kitchen. Similarly, the southwest direction brings arguments, and disputes and makes the money flow.

To minimize the dispute and make your family lead a happy and healthy living following the tips of Vastu consultant in India is very important.
