Message by Dr. Smita: Vastu Shastra is not an over the counter medicine (OTC). One should never practice it by reading few articles or books as it can have negative effects and one might also end-up spending a huge amount of money on the building. Like a human body, every house/office is a different study, hence it requires an expert to analyse it. Vastu Consultants are the doctors of buildings.
Vastu Tips For The Selection Of Plot
One of the major obstacles that come in one's way is the
non-availability of sufficient private land either in big cities or small
towns. Several things need careful consideration while going for
construction of a building. For any building, the site (Kshetra) is the
basic requirement and utmost care must be taken in its selection.
The most important of all these is selecting the right plot or the site. Vastu Shastra, therefore, has given the utmost importance to selection of a right plot and has set down several significant principles. There are some important factors that you should always consider while looking for a plot. Whenever possible one should always try to follow the Vastu principles as violation of these principles can destroy the happiness of one's life.
Types of soil
Earth is classified according to its color like brick red, dark brown, black, yellow or mixed, according to its smell, texture and taste. Black and clayey soil is not good for construction.

Types of soil
Earth is classified according to its color like brick red, dark brown, black, yellow or mixed, according to its smell, texture and taste. Black and clayey soil is not good for construction.
- The soil white in color, having lotus smell, sweet taste and which contains greenery is considered very good.
- The soil red in color, smelling blood and astringent in taste is good but needs some attention.
- The soil yellow/pale green in color, grainish smell and sour taste is average and needs a lot of rectification before commencement of work.
- The soil black in color, having pungent small and bitter taste should be avoided as it is not auspicious for construction of the houses.
While designing the foundation, the load bearing capacity
of the soil should be checked. The real analysis of soil should be done
which determines the land selection for the plot and for the foundation of
the building.
Location and buying
The location of the plot is very important as the surroundings affects us directly and indirectly. You must take care of the following things:
Location and buying
The location of the plot is very important as the surroundings affects us directly and indirectly. You must take care of the following things:
- One should not buy the land from people suffering from prolonged sickness or who have become insolvent, distressed or unfortunate people as the atmosphere of the particular space depends on the people living there.
- The soil of the land should not contain ant-hills, bones, skeletons.
- Old houses which are damaged due to fire, lighting, rain and storm etc., are not good.
- You should not buy the land which is sandwiched between two huge buildings.
- The plot at the T- junction should be avoided.
Topography and surroundings
There are several factors which make a plot useable or non useable. The four directions, the shape, the existence of highways, cremation places, rivers, wells, places of worships, they all influence the VASTU of the place.

- There should not be any cemetery graveyard, tomb adjacent to the plot or in front or the back. If this is the condition, the people residing in that house will live in fear and will never have the peace of mind.
- A temple, church, mosque also should not be in front of any house otherwise the inmates will always be sick and mentally upset.
- Falling of shadows of the temples and trees nearby on the main building brings undesirable problems.
Selection of the plot
Facing of the plots are considered important but there is a wrong notion that North and East facing plots are better than South and West facing plots. This is not true, all the directions are equally important; it is up to us how much we follow the rules.
