New Delhi — : The Vastu Shastra doesn’t just apply to temples or bedrooms—appliances like washing machines can also disrupt the energy of a household if placed incorrectly. According to renowned astrologer and Vastu Shastra expert Pandit Ajay Kaushik, incorrect placement can block financial growth, trigger recurring health issues, and create emotional unrest. Shockingly, there are two specific directions that can silently sabotage your prosperity if your washing machine is placed there.
Why the South-East Direction Can Be Dangerous for Your Finances
The South-East is known in Vastu as the Agni (Fire) Kon, representing the fire element. Placing water- and electricity-based appliances like washing machines here can disturb this fire-water balance. The result? Constant increase in expenses, gradual income decline, and career stagnation. People may notice setbacks in business, unstable jobs, or poor returns on investments. Over time, families living in such homes may experience stress, anxiety, and financial instability.
North Direction: A Magnet for Missed Opportunities
The North direction is closely linked with Kuber, the god of wealth, making it a vital zone for prosperity and career advancement. However, placing a washing machine here creates energetic friction that can block new opportunities, cause health issues, and create household unrest. When heavy appliances disturb this sensitive direction, wealth energy weakens, and mental clarity deteriorates. That’s why Vastu strictly advises against placing a washing machine in the North zone.
Forced to Use These Directions? Neutralize Vastu Dosh with Simple Remedies
Modern home layouts often limit ideal placements. But if you’re compelled to place the washing machine in an inauspicious direction, apply these Vastu correction remedies:
South-East Fix: Drape a red cloth over the washing machine to harmonize fire and water elements.
North Fix: Cover the machine with a blue cloth to restore energetic balance and protect prosperity.
These easy corrections can minimize negative effects and maintain the flow of positive energy in your home.
Which Cloth Colors Suit Other Directions?
Use these color-coded Vastu remedies to align the appliance with the elemental forces of each direction:
North-East: White or light blue for peace and clarity
North-West: Light brown or cream for stability and harmony
South: Orange or pink to promote strength and endurance
West: White for balance
East: Green for renewal and vitality
Placing the correct colored cloth enhances direction-specific energies and reduces appliance-induced Vastu Dosh.
Best Vastu-Compliant Directions for Washing Machine Placement
According to Pandit Ajay Kaushik, the North-West and South directions are the most Vastu-compliant for placing a washing machine:
North-West: Aligned with the air element, this zone ensures smooth appliance performance, reduces breakdowns, and encourages financial movement.
South: Known for its stability, this direction helps maintain long-term balance in both machine functionality and household peace.
Correct placement in these two directions promotes wealth growth, good health, and emotional well-being across the family.
Make your home Vastu-positive not just by rearranging furniture or painting walls—but by mindfully placing essential appliances like your washing machine. Right direction, right energy, better life.
