The centre of the flat in Vastu: why it is kept free

In Vastu the centre of the flat affects every area of life at once. That is why it is kept free and light — and this is one of the simplest measures.

Why the centre matters

The centre of the flat affects every area of life at once. A cluttered, crammed centre leaves the head of the household dissatisfied with everything.

In Vastu the centre of the flat should be free of fire and water. Fire or water in the centre may affect health, above all eyesight.

What is unfavourable in the centre

  • A bathroom or toilet in the centre of the flat
  • A kitchen in the centre of the flat
  • Water or sewage pipes in the centre of the flat
  • A storeroom in the centre of the flat
  • The centre of the flat falls on the room where you sleep

What you can do

Keep the centre of the flat free: no wardrobes, heavy things or plants.

What will change

The centre of the flat affects every area of life at once. A crammed centre leaves the head of the household dissatisfied with everything.

If that is not possible

If you cannot keep it completely free, at least keep heavy things and plants out of it.

Store heavy and rarely used things in the southwest, south or west of the flat, not in the centre.

Declutter: throw away what is broken and what you have not used for over a year.

Place a clear crystal, silver or a piece of white marble in the central zone. Do not put water in the centre of the flat.

Where the centre of your flat is

The centre is found from the outline of the whole flat, not of one room, and in a flat of complex shape it may be far from where it seems. The app finds the centre from the plan, marks it together with the central zone and shows which rooms fall into it.
