As per the Vastu rules, while constructing a building it must be located in such a way that it receives the maximum benefit from the solar and cosmic energies. Thus the orientation attains a vital part. The various directions are:
North, South, East, West, NorthEast, NorthWest, SouthEast and SouthWest. Every corner is again divided into 2 sides. Namely:
NorthEast - | East North EastNorth North East | ||
SouthEast - | East South East South South East | ||
NorthWest - | West North WestNorth North West | ||
SouthWest - | South South West West South West | ||
The NorthEast corner is stated to receive the cosmic energy, which is a combination
of energy from different planets apart from sun, in abundance. And from there it moves in the opposite
direction i.e to the SouthWest.
