In Vastu Shastra, the positioning of a home in relation to its surroundings plays a crucial role in determining the flow of positive energy. A house located at a T-point—where a road directly faces the property—often raises concerns among homeowners and Vastu enthusiasts. Such locations are believed to attract excessive energy, which, if not balanced correctly, can lead to disturbances in peace, health, and prosperity. However, with the right understanding of T-point house Vastu, appropriate remedies, and proper directional alignment, it’s possible to turn this challenge into an opportunity for harmony and abundance. In this guide, Brick & Bolt shares some practical tips, simple corrections, and ideal orientations to help you create a positive and prosperous living environment even in a T-point location.
What is a T-Point House?
A “T-Point” or “T-junction” house is the residence situated at a T-point, where two roads intersect at a right angle, forming the letter T, with the top road directing straight toward the house. This house construction is auspicious except that the house is built facing the last arm of the T, and the road leading to it.
Is T-Point House Good or Bad According to Vastu Shastra?
In Vastu Shastra, the construction of a house or commercial building at a T-junction can significantly increase the likelihood of causing Veedhi Shoola of Vedishul dosh. Here, a road ends and points directly at a specific plot, house, or building. The road’s energy flow can be aggressive for the home’s energy if not handled carefully. Thus, it’s considered inauspicious.
However, not all T-point plots are bad. The T-point direction (the direction of the incoming road) relative to the house plays a crucial role. T-point plots facing the North, North-East, or East are considered auspicious, bringing good fortune and financial stability and promoting health and well-being.
Vastu Guidelines for T-Point Houses Facing Different Directions
East-Facing T Point House Vastu
An east-facing T-Point house can be energy-efficient because it receives full morning sunlight. It is beneficial for natural light and positivity, but it may also lead to health problems, restless energy, stress, and noise pollution from direct contact with the road.
To minimise negative energy from the road, place your main entrance to the north or east. You can also plant tall trees and/or create a water feature within the “Northeast” zone in the yard. Trees, shrubs, or a water feature in the “Northeast” will balance returning energy flow into the home. A block or end to the road’s direct energy, such as a compound wall or densely built area of tall trees and foliage, helps prevent the road energy from entering the home directly by blocking it or absorbing energy before it enters. For indoors, lively colours such as green or yellow may keep the energy lively, uplifting, and in harmony. Also, mirrors placed on the east wall of the home can reflect positive energy and create a balance.
Vastu for T Point House Facing West
T-point houses facing west typically stay cooler from sunset to the next afternoon. Potential overheating will occur with direct sun coming in on the siding during the afternoon, creating stress and the potential for in-stability (financial/emotional) from exposure to the road. Following Vastu for a west-facing house, use heavy curtains, blinds, tall trees, a wall at the entrance to block infiltration of energy. Good ventilation and airflow are important. Earthy colours such as beige and light brown are recommended for indoor use. Position the entrance slightly to the north or south, and use water features or plants in the northwest or northeast for positive balance. Proper zoning helps transform a challenging site into a stable, harmonious environment.
Vastu for T Point House Facing South
A house with a T-point that faces south is dominated by strong fire energy, which increases the potential influence both positively and negatively for issues related to reputation, leadership, and health. House residents may feel potential discomfort and stress due to prolonged exposure to the sun, including direct exposure that has been connected to health issues, financial strain, etc. It may be beneficial to place the front entry either to the south or southeast side of the house, use bright colored plants to create stability, use heavier furniture rather than light furniture to create stability, and have plenty of lighting, especially in the southern portion of the house. Color can also stabilise the energy; try to use cool and relaxed soothing colors, such as green or light blue. In addition, a barrier of shrubs or a fence provides energy to change the road or negative energy from the road.
Vastu for T Point House Facing North
Although a north-facing house is considered ideal for receiving positive energy, which is associated with wealth and prosperity. However, if the T-point house faces north, due to the direct alignment with the road, residents may be vulnerable to stress, noise, and disruptions to their financial stability. To get rid of this, you can follow Vastu remedies, such as building a compound wall or a thick Green fence to reduce direct exposure to the road. For a luxury touch, install water elements (like fountains) at the main entrance to attract positive energy. Place mirrors strategically inside the house to reflect and distribute positive energies.
Vastu Remedies for T-Point Houses
Consider the following Vastu guidelines when building or modifying a T-Point house.
- Form a Buffer Zone: In the T-side plot, plant tall trees or a thick wall to serve as a barrier to the road’s energy.
- Positions Main Entrance Following Vastu: Always set the main entrance away from the T-point to prevent direct flow of energy. If it’s not possible, use a convex mirror outside to deflect negative energy. You can also place a sturdy Dwara Ganesha idol or plaque on the compound wall or above the gate facing the road to stop negative energy from entering.
- Use of mass and height: Place heavier, solid functions (store rooms, staircase, vehicular parking, compound walls) on the side facing the T-junction to act as a structural “weight” that blocks aggressive energy. Keep living areas, puja room, and master bedroom away from the direct road line when you can.
- Use Indoor Plants: Indoor plants like money plants or bamboo near the entrance serve as a protective barrier, blocking direct road energy.
- Maintain the flow of light and air: Place windows strategically to let in fresh air and sunlight. At night, you can use light incense or candles for further purification.
- Water Elements: According to Vastu, water brings harmony, prosperity, and positive energies into a home. You can install a small fountain or aquarium in your home’s north or northeast direction to promote peace and calmness.
- Balancing Elements: Consult Vastu experts and include suitable balancing elements, such as Vastu pyramids, yantras, or other methods, to balance energy.
In conclusion, always try to avoid purchasing a T-point house or plot. If you plan to build a structure in such an area, consult Vastu experts or a Vastu-compliant house builder. They will evaluate your space and analyse the alignment of the road with your home. Based on this assessment, they will decide the right construction methods and the inclusion of essential materials. This approach helps you build a Vastu-compliant house that enhances your overall quality of life.
