Pregnancy is one of the most significant phases in a couple’s life. Thankfully, societal norms have evolved, and couples have children out of choice rather than compulsion. However, an increasing number of couples face challenges in conceiving, often due to factors like male or female infertility. Surprisingly, even when both partners are physically and mentally fit, some couples struggle to conceive without understanding the underlying reasons.
According to Manjushree Ahirrao, Co-Founder of VastuRaviraj, one of the best Vastu experts in India, certain Vastu defects in homes may hinder pregnancy. Below, we explore common Vastu issues and practical remedies to overcome these challenges.
Understanding Vastu and the Role of Natural Elements in Conception
Vastu Shastra emphasizes the balance of the five natural elements: water, air, fire, earth, and space. Each element plays a critical role in maintaining harmony within a home. Among these, the fire element, located in the southeast direction, governs sexual relationships and is essential for conceiving and nurturing a baby in the womb.
Vastu Tips to Conceive a Baby
Follow these simple yet effective Vastu tips to improve your chances of conceiving:
- Ideal Sleeping Directions
- Couples should sleep in the southwest direction for a harmonious relationship and better intimacy.
- Alternatively, couples can sleep in the northwest region, specifically in the energy field known as Parjanya, which promotes mental and physical stability and aids conception.
- Bedroom Placement
- Once a woman conceives, she should move to a bedroom in the southwest direction for pregnancy stability.
- Avoid bedrooms in the south-to-southwest direction (zone of disposal), as this can hinder conception. Similarly, bedrooms between east-southeast or west-northwest can create obstacles.
- Addressing Vastu Defects
- Southwest toilets or weak southwest corners reduce the chances of pregnancy.
- A toilet in the south-southeast or a kitchen in the northeast direction weakens the fire element and affects reproductive health.
- Ensure no heavy furniture, staircase, or beam is present at the center of the home to avoid complications in pregnancy.
- Lighting and Sleeping Position for Pregnant Women
- Pregnant women should sleep with their heads pointing south and feet pointing north for a positive energy flow.
- Ensure the room is well-lit; avoid dark or gloomy spaces for pregnant women.
Things to Avoid During Pregnancy
To maintain a peaceful and positive environment during pregnancy, avoid the following:
- Watching depressing content like violent movies or TV shows.
- Hurting the feelings of a pregnant woman.
- Displaying paintings with negative themes such as war, cruelty, or violence.
- Wearing dark or somber colors like black or dark red.
- Sleeping under beams.
- Keeping bonsai or thorny plants at home.
- Overusing electronic gadgets, as their radiation can lead to complications.
What to Follow During Pregnancy
Here are some beneficial practices to follow:
- Grow fruit trees in the southeast direction of your backyard or garden for positive energy.
- Place pink rose crystals in the bedroom to enhance positivity.
- Cover or remove mirrors from the bedroom to avoid negative energy.
- Keep fresh flowers at home to uplift the atmosphere.
- Place a small statue or photo of Balakrishna near the bed or in the northwest direction to bless the pregnancy.
