When constructing stairs, whether inside or outside the house, it is important to adhere to Vastu Shastra principles for harmony and positive energy flow. Here are some guidelines to follow:
For houses with an east and west main entrance:
– If stairs are to be constructed outside the house or adjacent to the wall, they should ascend directly from east to west along the north wall. The entrance should be in the middle part or directly from east to west adjacent to the south wall in the southeast, entering the upper or middle part of the first floor.
For houses with a north-south main entrance:
– Stairs should be built outside the house adjacent to the wall of the house. If the entrance to the upper floor is desired, one should climb from north to south along the east wall or central part in the east-north-east direction. Alternatively, in the West-North-West direction, climbing directly from north to south adjacent to the west wall would lead to the upper floor.
If stairs are to be constructed inside the rooms of the building:
– When climbing directly from north to south, ensure a gap of at least three inches from the east-facing wall in other rooms. Alternatively, one can climb directly from east to west with or without adjoining the south wall or directly from north to south with or without the west wall. Climbing straight from east to west while maintaining a three-inch gap from the north wall is also acceptable.
While turning on the stairs inside or outside the house:
– First, climb from east to west or north to south, then turn around and climb in the opposite direction.
If steps are to be made outside the house towards the south-east corner:
– Climb from north to south without touching the wall of the eastern compound, then turn and climb from south to north, entering the upper floor from the balcony.
Avoid the following:
– Do not construct stairs towards the west-south direction for entrance into the house.
– Avoid building stairs above the angle in the south-west corner.
– Stairs should never be built in the east corner and southwest corner.
Following these Vastu guidelines while constructing stairs will help promote positive energy and well-being in your home.
