The water tank within a household serves as a vital resource for fulfilling daily water requirements. However, it’s noteworthy that the Vastu, or the architectural guidelines of the house, also encompass the placement of the water tank. Prior to installing or selecting a location for the water tank, adherence to proper Vastu principles is imperative.
In the realm of house Vastu, the positioning of the water tank holds significant importance due to the influence of energy in our lives. As we are enveloped by an unseen force known as Cosmic Energy, it’s crucial that the water tank’s placement doesn’t impede the flow of this energy in the wrong direction. A correctly positioned water tank emits positive energy, whereas an improperly placed one can amplify negative energy within the household, potentially leading to various life-related challenges for its occupants.
Saral Vaastu emphasizes the correction of this cosmic energy imbalance through its principles, which have been meticulously developed by Guruji over two decades of intensive study. These three fundamental rules are:
Connect with cosmic energy through direction
Balance cosmic energy through structure
Channelize cosmic energy through chakras
Correcting any hindrance caused by an incorrectly positioned or oriented water tank can be achieved by aligning it with the most favorable direction. Each individual is associated with four favorable and four unfavorable directions, determined by their date of birth according to Guruji’s teachings.
Through an analysis of your birth date, Saral Vaastu experts identify the optimal direction for your water tank placement, ensuring the best possible outcomes. This direction can then be followed to enhance the Vastu of your water tank and yield positive results.
In any household or building, water tanks come in two forms: overhead and underground, each governed by distinct Vastu principles. Here are some water tank Vastu tips to promote positivity and harmony.
Overhead Water Tank Vastu
☸ Due to their placement atop roofs, overhead water tanks exert significant weight on the house, necessitating careful consideration of their Vastu-compliant location.
☸ Optimal directions for overhead water tanks include South-West or West, with South being a viable alternative in some instances.
☸ If neither South-West nor South is feasible, North-West becomes the last resort for placement.
☸ The North-East direction should always be avoided for overhead water tanks.
☸ Steer clear of placing them in the South-East direction to avert potential losses or accidents.
☸ Central positioning of water tanks is discouraged in Water Tank Vastu.
☸ Tanks situated in the South or South-West direction should be elevated 1-2 feet above ground level, while those in the West do not require additional elevation.
☸ Avoid situating water tanks above kitchens or bedrooms.
☸ Plastic water tanks should be avoided.
☸ Opt for blue or black-colored tanks for overhead placement.
☸ Maintain cleanliness of water tanks at all times and ensure they are covered for hygiene purposes.
☸ Separate water tanks should be designated for kitchen and bathroom/toilets.
☸ Prevent leakage in water tanks to maintain integrity and functionality.
Underground Water Tank Vastu
☸ The North-East direction is deemed the most auspicious for underground water tanks.
☸ Alternately, underground tanks can be positioned towards either North or East, with each direction offering distinct benefits.
☸ Placing tanks in the North direction is believed to bring wealth and prosperity, while East placement enhances wealth accumulation.
☸ Avoid placing underground water tanks in the South direction, as it may lead to mental stress and illness.
☸ Similar to the South, directions such as North-West, South-West, and South-East are deemed unfavorable for underground tank placement.
☸ Central positioning of underground water tanks is discouraged, as it may lead to financial difficulties or family discord.
☸ Ensure there are no leaks or seepage in underground water tanks as per Vastu guidelines.
☸ Avoid commencing digging for an underground water tank on Tuesdays.
☸ Maintain cleanliness and hygiene standards for underground water tanks.
