Association of Directions with Planets
Planets are linked to directions and elements, ruling energy flow and impact:
Sun (East) - vitality, fire element influence.
Moon (North-West) - emotions, water element.
Mercury (North) - intellect, air element.
Jupiter (North-East) - wisdom, space element.
Venus (South-East) - creativity, fire element.
Mars (South) - strength, fire element.
Saturn (West) - discipline, earth element.
Rahu-Ketu (South-West) - transformation, earth element.
Each planet governs a direction and impacts the corresponding element and space usage, e.g., Jupiter in North-East aligns with spiritual water and space energies; Venus in South-East aligns with fire and creativity. Friendly and enemy elements and planets affect positive or negative energy flow and dictate harmonious or conflicting interactions within a property.Thus, Vastu Shastra aligns the five elements with planetary influences to create balanced, prosperous, and positive living environments by harmonizing cosmic, natural, and human energies.
