DIVINE VASTU TIPS FOR PREGNANCY
DIVINE VASTU TIPS FOR PREGNANCY:
Presence of positive energy is important
for women during pregnancy or conceiving as any wrong decision on their end
could even make couple childless or bearing persistent misfortunes.
Pregnancy is an esoteric experience and privilege that only women
enjoy; while wishing for a healthy baby is common thinking. A Vastu compliant
house not only yields good and positive results but indeed help women
to deliver healthy offspring. Pregnant women must consider some
significant tips of Vastu so as to give timely birth to child and to avoid
unnecessary problems. For the expectant mothers, nine months’ period can be
extremely overwhelming and surprising. It is believed that apart from taking
a gynecologist’s advice into consideration, certain simple Divine Vastu tips
can also be followed to bear a healthy child.
- Single
women should take the room in the North-West as first option if they are
looking to get married. This particular direction is ruled by the element
‘Air’ and planet ‘Moon’ and has qualities related to change and
transformation. As a second option they can use South-Eastern room (‘Fire’
element and ruling planet ‘Venus’). Keeping a henna plant, fresh flowers
and hanging wind chimes can further improve the chances of early marriage.
- Couples
who are planning for the pregnancy should use the North-Western room
(‘Air’ element) till the onset of pregnancy.
- To
avoid any problem during pregnancy, the women should sleep in
South-Western bedroom or as a second choice in North-Eastern room. They
should never sleep in North-Western room during the pregnancy.
- They
should preferably sleep keeping their head in the South direction.
- Expecting
mothers must avoid wearing dark or shiny colors such as dark red, black,
and orange and go for subtle colors such as pastel green, blue, yellow and
white.
- The
color blue has cooling and astringent qualities; hence a night bulb
emanating soft blue light during night, also violet, indigo, purple are
suggested for walls.
- Women
expecting a baby must never sit in rooms, which are dark and bleak which
can lead to depression; there should always be some light in the rooms.
- It is
always good to read motivational books during the time of pregnancy. In
addition, women should hang images of beautiful, healthy children in their
bedroom and look at them several times a day.
- According
to Vastu Shastra, a staircase in the exact center of the house may lead to
health problems for pregnant women, so take care to get the stairs away
from this zone.
- Heavy
furniture should not be kept in the middle of the house, as it is the
‘Brahmasthan’ and needs to be kept as empty as possible.
- Ensure
that there are no overhead beams running through the center of the house
or it would lead to a disturbed mind.
- Lighting
a lamp in the ‘Fire Zone’ (South-East direction) daily is important for
good health.
- Pregnant
woman should avoid restroom under stairs to avoid negative vibes.
- Do not
plant thorny plants like Cacti and plants which exudes white sap, like
rubber plant etc. They should also avoid ‘Bonsai’ plants which symbolizes
stunted growth.
- Paintings
depicting violence, war, dragons or any negativity should be avoided.
- Meditate
and practice breathing exercises sitting in the North-Eastern corner of
your house while facing East.
- Always
keep the curtains of the southern and western windows closed between 10 am
to 6pm.
- Women
who are already pregnant must stay in an environment that is lively and
fresh. For that matter, it is good to keep fresh flowers in every part of
the house. If a baby girl is expected then keep fresh flowers in the
Western direction.
Logical and Scientific Explanations of some of the
above Vastu principles:
Electrical and Electronic Gadgets
Normally, a lady’s basal body warmth is higher during
pregnancy. It is, therefore, advisable for the lady to keep herself away
from and being too near a television, a computer or any heat generating gadget
that emanates electrical or electro-magnetic energies (‘Fire/Agni’ element).
This way, she can avoid increasing her internal temperature to a dangerous
level without even being aware of it. Normally, a woman dissipates body
heat through her skin and breathing. The fetus that is growing has normally a
temperature which is a little more than the mother’s and dissipates its heat
across the placenta and through the mother’s blood stream. Fetal damage can
possibly occur if the mother or the fetus does not cool down quickly after the
temperature of the core rises.
Certain Finnish (Finland) studies have revealed manifold
increase of miscarriages in women using computers. It may also worry
you about using a laptop or tablet during pregnancy. Be assured that they
are safe to use. Just bear in mind that laptops can give out a lot of heat, so
don't put it on your tummy as overheating could harm your baby. It's also best
not to put your laptop directly on your thighs, because it could burn you. Put
your laptop on a table or on a cushion on your lap.
The South-East sector of the building and the South-East
sector of a room are places to be avoided by a pregnant lady at least for the
first three months. Medical science tells us that by the end of the
fourth month, almost all the major organs of the fetus are formed. The
brain stem and the limbs are formed and begin to mature. Most pre-natal
damage capable of causing birth defects occurs during this time. This
period, commonly known as embryo-genesis, can cause organ-specific
damage. However, brain development continues throughout the period of
pregnancy. Therefore, there is really no safe period for strong intense
bursts or continuous doses of electro-magnetic frequencies during the months of
pregnancy.
Thermal Heat
Research on the effects of thermal and non-thermal
electro-magnetic fields has shown reported 50 percent miscarriages in pregnant
women who slept in electrically heated waterbeds. Thermal heat is,
therefore, another factor that affects pregnancy. When the Eastern part of the
Earth is heated, its Western part remains cold. Consequently, thermal
electricity generated by the Sun travels over the surface of the Earth from
East to West. Therefore, pregnant ladies can avoid sleeping with their heads to
the East. They can sleep with their heads to the South as natural polarity of
the body is maintained and health of both the mother and the fetus is taken
care of.
Beneficial Ultra Violet Rays
A pregnant lady can sleep in a North-East room. It is a known
fact that the Sun’s rays can be split into seven plus two colors. Beginning
from ultra-violet ray in the first part on the Eastern side corresponding to
North-East, the Sun’s beneficial rays further split into violet, indigo, blue,
green, yellow, orange, red and infra-red in the last part corresponding to the
South-East. Ultra-violet and the cold colors of the spectrum are said to
have a soothing effect on the body and hence, the North-East room is
recommended for a mother-to-be.
Since blue has a cooling and astringent effect, a night lamp
giving soft blue light in the room during night, is suggested. The other
two colors of the cooling trio viz., violet and indigo can be alternated during
the entire period of pregnancy. Violet is said to be good for bone growth,
maintaining the potassium and sodium balance of the body. Expectant
mothers who regularly meditate will be happy to know what Leonardo da
Vinci said that “the power of meditation can be 10 times greater under the
violet light falling through the stained glass windows of a quiet church...”
To put it simply, violet is an inspiring and spiritual color. Ultra violet ray,
which is the head of the ‘cool’ colors and is said to normalize all metabolism
and glandular activities can also be used with advantage.
Remember, it is very
important to have rooms such as your bedroom, living room, dining room etc. in
accordance with Vastu Shastra to make sure you conceive early and give birth to
a healthy baby. Follow the aforementioned Divine Vastu tips for pregnant women
if you are planning a family extension. Apart from this, once the woman has
conceived she must stay cheerful and positive and should keep away from
negative situations and people. I wish
all ‘mothers-to-be’, a happy and healthy Divine Vastu tips inspired pregnancy.
