Common Vastu Mistakes in Gurugram Builder Floors
Builder floors have become a popular housing choice in Gurugram, offering independence and more space than high-rise apartments. However, many of these homes are constructed with limited attention to Vastu Shastra, leading to energy imbalances that may affect the residents’ well-being, finances, and peace of mind.
If you’re living in or planning to buy a builder floor in Gurugram—whether in Sector 56, Sector 109, South City, or DLF areas—here are some common Vastu dosh (defects) you should be aware of:
🔴 1. Toilet in North-East (Ishan) Direction
Problem: The north-east zone governs clarity, mental peace, and spirituality. A toilet here can cause health issues and mental stress.
Remedy: Place a Vastu pyramid outside the toilet door or install a salt bowl in the corner. Paint the toilet walls in light yellow or beige.
🟠 2. Kitchen in North-East or South-West
Problem: The ideal direction for a kitchen is South-East (Agni Kon). If placed in the north-east, it creates a clash between fire and water energies. If in the south-west, it can disrupt stability and finances.
Remedy: Use red-colored accessories (like towels or rugs) in a north-east kitchen and yellow hues in a south-west kitchen to minimize defects.
🟡 3. Main Entrance Facing South or South-West
Problem: These directions are considered inauspicious for the main entrance if not properly corrected, as they may lead to frequent expenses or health issues.
Remedy: Place Vastu strips of lead and brass on the door frame, and hang a Vastu toran or Om symbol above the door.
🟢 4. No Ventilation or Natural Light
Problem: Poor light and airflow lead to stagnant energy, especially in builder floors with limited open space.
Remedy: Use Himalayan salt lamps, mirrors, and light-colored curtains to enhance energy circulation.
🔵 5. Staircase in North-East
Problem: A staircase in the north-east blocks positive energy and may cause mental tension or slow progress.
Remedy: Keep the staircase well-lit, and place a Vastu helix or a copper pyramid near the base for energy correction.
🟣 6. Cut or Extended Corners
Problem: Irregularly shaped plots or flats with missing or extended corners can disturb the energy balance.
Remedy: Use Vastu corner strips or copper energizers in the affected areas. Place earthen pots or plants in extended zones to neutralize the imbalance.
⚫ 7. Overhead Water Tank in North-East
Problem: North-east should be light and clean. A heavy water tank here leads to financial strain and blocked opportunities.
Remedy: If unavoidable, paint the tank sky blue and keep the area clutter-free.
Many builder floors in Gurugram—especially in developing sectors like 102, 104, 108, and 113—are built with modern amenities but ignore traditional architectural sciences. While reconstruction is rarely possible in such homes, simple Vastu remedies can make a significant positive difference.
