Objects for protection and prosperity

While people only focus on chairs, paints, and decor items when thinking about the aesthetics and look of their home, there are certain objects recommended by Vastu that not just give a beautiful look, but also promote positivity and good energies. Here we list some of them.

Peacock feather

Peacock feathers are considered important in Vastu. Keeping them in the home can attract positive energy and ward off negative vibes. Place them in the southwest direction of your living room or bedroom.

​Tulsi plant

Tulsi is one of the most respected and spiritual plants in Hinduism and is important in Vastu principles too. It is said that Tulsi can help purify the environment and bring good health.

Aquarium

An aquarium is said to be one of the best sources of positive energy. Placing an aquarium in the north or east direction of your living room can bring in prosperity and the movement of fishes is thought to reduce stress.

​Tortoise sculpture

A tortoise sculpture is said to be a symbol of long life and stability. Vastu defines that when placed in the north direction of the home, the tortoise brings in good luck and wealth.

​Shree yantra

The Shree Yantra is a geometric symbol that has been used for attracting wealth and prosperity. According to Vastu, when it is kept in the east or northeast direction of the home, it cleans the energies of the home.

A Buddha statue is a symbol of peace and contentment. Placing a Buddha statue in the northeast direction of the living room promotes peace and spiritual growth.

​Crystals

According to both Vastu and Feng shui, crystals such as quartz, amethyst, and citrine have healing properties. Keeping them in the living room or bedroom helps better the flow of positive energy.

​An idol of lord Ganesha

While people already keep an idol of Lord Ganesha in the home temple, there is also a way to keep it according to Vastu. Keeping a Gnesha idol in the living room, facing the northeast, can bring in luck and prosperity.

Gomti chakra

Gomti chakras are small, white, and flat shells that are considered very important and auspicious. They are usually kept in the puja room or placed in the cash box or locker.

OM

The OM symbol is another amazing Vastu object to keep in the home, and even in office spaces. OM can be placed near the entrance, in the puja room, or even in the living area. OM creates a positive vibration in home and keeps away negative energy.
