In the solarsystem we live there are nine planets that are circling the Sun. According to Vastu each planet has is its influences on you and your house.
In the table below we describe the nine planets, on which direction they have their influence and what is the characteristic of the planet. Each planet has his own strenght based on size, distance to earth, distance to sun, distance to other planets, and their rotation.
According to Vastu you have to "play" in your house with these characteristics of the planets and their influences. For example; Jupiter is a heavy planet en is connected to the North East. That means that in your house you should try to avoid "heavy" things in your house. That means a heavy cupboard or washing machine, but also objects that are very emotional to you. Like a picture of someone you miss. Its better to put that somewhere else in the house.
Besides the planets the Sun plays a major part in our lives. Vastu says the sun rays from the east give creative energies while sunrays from the west give sunstainable energies. I have red some website saying the ultra violet rays of the sun are benifical and the infra red rays harmful. Modern science tells us exactly the opposite, infra red is good (fe there are many infra red saunas these days) and ultra violet is extremly harmful if your exposed to it too long. UV rays damage the eyes and skin rusulting in eye operations skin deseases and in the worst case skin cancer. If you put a UV camera on somebodies skin you can see the dots the sun burnt into your skin and eyes.
