Guided AR scan · 4 steps
Vāstu Śāstra reads a building as a living map of eight directions, each ruled by an element and a deity. In a few guided steps you’ll scan your space, mark your rooms, and receive a personalised, classically grounded reading — yours to download as a PDF.
What are we scanning?
A residence — where the family lives, cooks, prays and rests.
Find true North
Use your phone like a compass — point it at the room and we lock onto the directions.
Place your rooms
Tap where your entrance, kitchen, bedroom and pooja sit on the Ashta-dik wheel.
Get a cited reading
A direction-by-direction Vāstu analysis — doshas, remedies and a downloadable PDF.
Step 2 · Scan
Open the camera and the mandala settles over your room. Turn slowly until North lines up, then lock it in.
Pointing North · Uttara
Manual alignment
Drag the dial so its North marker points to your home's north, then lock it.
Nothing leaves your device — the scan runs right here in your browser.
Step 3 · Place your rooms
Pick a room, then tap its direction on the wheel. The wheel shows where the classics say each room belongs.
Location for this reading
A Vāstu reading is directional, so your location only lightly colours it — but we won’t pretend to know where your home is.

Fire over the Brahmasthān contradicts the open-centre rule.
Modern Vāstu — Brahmasthān openness (after Mayamata, Ch. 7)
Fire in the NE works against the lightness the texts want for the Ishana corner.
Manasara, Ch. 7 (Ishana corner)
Fire in the earth corner (SW/Nairṛti) sits against the home's heaviest, most grounding zone.
Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53 (Nairṛti, SW)
A bedroom load over the Brahmasthān contradicts the open-centre rule.
Modern Vāstu — Brahmasthān openness (after Mayamata, Ch. 7)
A heavy master suite loads the light NE corner the texts want kept open.
Modern Vāstu — keep the NE light (after Manasara, Ch. 7)
A staircase through the centre cuts the Brahmasthān.
Modern Vāstu — Brahmasthān openness (after Mayamata, Ch. 7)
A staircase load presses down the lightest corner.
Modern Vāstu — keep the NE light (after Manasara, Ch. 7)
A wet/heavy use over the Brahmasthān contradicts the rule that the centre stay open.
Modern Vāstu — Brahmasthān openness (after Mayamata, Ch. 7)
Placing a toilet in the NE (Ishana) — the corner the texts keep purest and lightest — is the most-flagged Vāstu defect; this applies the classical purity principle to a modern attached toilet.
Modern Vāstu — purity of the Ishana corner (after Manasara, Ch. 7)
A drain in the SW (Nairṛti) works against the stability the corner should anchor.
Modern Vāstu — heaviness of the SW (after Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53)
A South entrance opens to Yama's quarter — acceptable when the door's exact pada and the owner's lagna match; otherwise commonly held neutral rather than favoured.
Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53 (Yama, South)
A SW entrance is commonly held to compromise the heavy grounding corner the home should anchor.
Modern Vāstu — heaviness of the SW (after Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53)
A kitchen in the North sets fire against Kubera's direction — his wealth quarter, treated in modern Vāstu as a cooler, water-aligned zone — commonly held a real defect, not a trivial one; the SE (Agni) is the ideal, the NW the usual fallback.
Modern Vāstu — fire off the North (interpretive)
The NW air corner is associated with movement — usable for a master suite but less settling than the SW.
Modern Vāstu — the NW air corner (after Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53)
Sleeping in the SE fire corner (Agni) is commonly held to raise restlessness; better suited to the SW.
Modern Vāstu — the SE is the fire corner (after Manasara, Ch. 9)
An open balcony / cut / void in the SW works against the heaviness the corner should carry.
Modern Vāstu — heaviness of the SW (after Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53)
A shrine in the South (Yama) is commonly discouraged.
Modern Vāstu convention
A shrine in the SW is commonly discouraged; the NE is the favoured place for worship.
Modern Vāstu convention
Heavy storage weighs down the light NE corner.
Modern Vāstu — keep the NE light (after Manasara, Ch. 7)
A toilet in the East is held to block the morning light the home should draw in.
Modern Vāstu — keep the East open to light (after Bṛhat Saṁhitā, Ch. 53)
A toilet beside the SE fire corner is commonly held to soften Agni; manageable with simple upkeep.
Modern Vāstu — wet function beside Agni (interpretive)
Bed direction
Choose a zodiac sign. The local table returns preferred, acceptable and avoided head directions.
Pick your Moon sign (Rashi). The classical texts associate each Rashi with a heading direction for sleep — bed head points there, feet face the opposite quarter.
Tap a Rashi to see the recommended direction.
This is a classical Rashi→direction lookup — a baked lookup table, no network. Use it as one input alongside your chart's Moon sign and the bedroom zone in your floor plan.
Top-of-funnel
Drag a room onto a zone and watch the live verdict update. No upload, no tracing — the same classical engine that powers the full report, in a 30-second check.
Pick a room, then click any cell of the 3×3 Vāstu grid (or drag-and-drop). The same classical engine that audits the full plan scores every placement live.
Drag-and-drop OR tap a room and then tap any cell. Score is severity-weighted (severe −3, moderate −1, minor −0.5, favourable 0).
Property comparison
Use it when a booking amount is due this week, not as a decorated table.
Compare two Vāstu property layouts side-by-side. Pick the same rooms for each side and a direction per room — the engine scores each side, totals them, and shows the room-by-room delta.
Both sides score identically — the choice is neutral on Vāstu alone.
Score = sum of severity-weighted classical-rule verdicts (severe −3, moderate −1, minor −0.5, favourable 0). Same engine as the drag-grid and the audit; no Vedika round-trip.
Layout generator
Pick the rooms and a facing. The existing deterministic generator assigns open zones, draws the proposal and scores the same classical placement rules. It is not a construction drawing.
Layout generator · no Vedika, no score-only
Pick the rooms you need and a facing. The generator places each one in its highest-scoring Vāstu zone, draws the resulting floor plan, and scores it against the same classical rules the report uses.
