Question 1

Which direction is best for master bedroom according to Vastu?

Accepted Answer

The South-West is the ideal zone for the master bedroom in Vastu. It carries earth energy — stability, depth, permanence — which is precisely what a couple's primary relationship space needs. The North-East is the least recommended zone for a couple's bedroom: it carries upward-moving spiritual energy that destabilises the grounding that relationships require. South and West are good secondary positions.

Question 2

Which direction should couples sleep according to Vastu?

Accepted Answer

South is the ideal sleeping direction for both partners — the head pointing South aligns with the Earth's magnetic field and promotes deep, stable rest. East is the second-best direction, particularly for health. Both partners ideally sleep with heads in the same direction. The North sleeping direction is avoided in Vastu as it creates magnetic opposition that fragments sleep and — over time — emotional stability.

Question 3

Why is a mirror facing the bed bad for couples in Vastu?

Accepted Answer

A mirror directly facing a couple's bed introduces what Vastu tradition describes as a third-presence energy into the most intimate space. Reflective surfaces keep the subconscious mind alert during sleep, creating shallow rest and emotional unsettledness. For couples, this manifests as a persistent sense of distance or being watched even in the most private space. The remedy is simple: cover or relocate the mirror so it does not face the bed.

Question 4

What colours are good for the couple's bedroom according to Vastu?

Accepted Answer

Earth tones — warm whites, creams, beiges, soft browns and muted terracotta — are the most supportive bedroom colours for couples in Vastu. They carry earth element energy: stability, warmth and grounding. Avoid sharp reds (too activating), pure white (too clinical), and dark blues or blacks (too isolating). Pink and rose tones are acceptable — they carry relationship warmth without the aggression of red.

Question 5

Can the master bedroom be in the North-East in Vastu?

Accepted Answer

The North-East (Ishan zone) is the least recommended position for a couple's master bedroom in Vastu. This zone carries upward-moving spiritual energy — excellent for prayer, meditation and creative work, but destabilising for the stable, rooted energy that a couple's primary sleep space needs. Couples in NE bedrooms frequently report emotional distance, unsettled sleep and a sense that their relationship lacks grounding. Corrections without relocation include earth-tone colours, heavy furniture in the SW corner of the room, and no reflective surfaces facing the bed.
