Use Vastu for your career

In the journey of life, a successful and fulfilling career is often a significant milestone. However, obstacles can sometimes hinder our progress. We wondered if Vastu Shastra could help in removing these obstacles. We asked Vastu Acharya, Manoj Shrivastava on how Vastu can enhance career prospects and remove obstacles in career growth. Here are some powerful Vastu tips to help you overcome hindrances and achieve your professional goals.

2/9

Harness the power of the north

Vastu emphasises the importance of the north and northeast directions for career growth. Ensure that your office or workspace is oriented in such a way that the north is open and unobstructed. This allows the flow of positive energy and enhances your career prospects. Keep a money plant in the North in a blue bottle to enhance career growth or attract new opportunities.

3/9

Desk placement

The placement of your desk is crucial. Ideally, your desk should be in the southwest or west portion of your office. This positioning enhances decision-making abilities and leadership qualities, propelling your career forward.

4/9

Sit facing the north or east direction

The North direction is associated with communication, intelligence, and business; while the east direction is associated with leadership, authority, and fame. Therefore, sitting facing these directions can help you express yourself clearly, think creatively, and impress others.

5/9

Have a solid wall behind your back

A solid wall behind your back represents support from your seniors, colleagues, and clients. It also gives you a sense of security and confidence. On the other hand, having a window or an open space behind your back can make you feel vulnerable and distracted.

6/9

Colours for Success

Colours have a significant impact on our psychology and energy levels. As per Vastu Acharya, Manoj Shrivastava, green is associated with growth and harmony. Incorporate shades of green in your office decor, such as green landscape painting, potted plants, or green accents. This can promote a positive work atmosphere and stimulate career growth.

7/9

Mindful art and decor

Choose artwork and decor for your office that reflects your career aspirations. Inspirational quotes, success symbols, or artwork depicting career growth can serve as daily reminders of your goals.

8/9

Hang a picture of mountains in the Southwest or West

The southwest direction is associated with the element of earth, which represents stability, focus and perseverance. The west direction is associated with the element of space and the planet Saturn, which represents discipline, hard work, and focus. Therefore, hanging a picture of mountains in these directions can help you overcome challenges, stay motivated, and rise above your competitors.

9/9

Avoid mirrors in the southeast or south-west direction of your home

The south-east direction is associated with the element of fire and the planet Venus, which represents wealth, beauty, and relationships. The south-west direction is associated with the element of earth and the planet Rahu, which represents illusion, confusion, and obstacles. Therefore, placing any mirrors or reflective surfaces in these directions can create negative energy, distort your self-image, and cause misunderstandings or conflicts.


Incorporating these Vastu tips into your workspace can help remove obstacles and create a conducive environment for career success. Vastu Acharya, Manoj Shrivastava gives a word of caution here, “While Vastu provides valuable insights, remember that it should complement your professional skills and efforts.” By harmonizing your physical surroundings with your career aspirations, you can clear the path to a successful and obstacle-free career journey.
