While buying my first house, I was sure that I had to be careful of west-facing houses. I had heard of west facing house disadvantages. My uncle, who is a Vastu expert had told me that while boasting stunning sunsets and potential energy savings, west-facing house also raises eyebrows in the world of Vastu Shastra. Let me tell you why.
West Facing House Vastu Disadvantages
- Afternoon Heat:
The afternoon sun bathes west-facing houses in intense heat, potentially raising energy bills and creating an uncomfortable sauna-like atmosphere.
- Main Entrance Woes:
My uncle used to tell me that Vastu recommends the main entrance in the east or north. With a west-facing house, this optimal placement might be difficult, potentially impacting energy flow and bringing unforeseen challenges.
- Negative Vibes:
Vastu associates the west with the setting sun, often linked to decline and inactivity. I would say while this is not a definitive truth, it's something to consider if striving for vibrant and harmonious energy within your home.
Although there are disadvantages of west facing house, there is still some hope.
Clever design and landscaping can mitigate the heat. Plant shade-loving trees on the west side, employ sun-control blinds and embrace lighter interiors to reflect heat.
My uncle also told me a remedy that if an east or north entrance isn't feasible, Vastu suggests the northwest or southwest corners, with proper modifications to improve energy flow.
My uncle always tells me that Vastu is about aligning your living space with positive energy. Living in a west-facing house doesn't have to be an astrological curse!
By understanding the potential challenges and implementing mindful solutions, we can create a comfortable and harmonious haven.
