Interpretation guide

VerdictMeaning
Good placement ✔Your direction is in the room’s favourable set
SuboptimalNot ideal — check the listed best directions
Dosha riskPlacement violates a sensitive zone (e.g. toilet in NE)

Formula & methodology

Formula: Verdict = direction ∈ best-direction set for the chosen room (Pancha-Bhoota zone map)

  1. Pick the room type and the compass direction it currently occupies (or is planned for).
  2. The calculator looks up the room’s favourable directions on the five-element zone map.
  3. You get the ideal direction, the full favourable set and a verdict for your choice.

Worked example: an entrance facing East scores "Good placement" — best is North, and N/NE/E/W are all acceptable entrance zones; the same East placement for a master bedroom would flag SW as the correct zone instead.

Frequently asked questions

Which direction is best for the main entrance?
North and East are classic first choices (Kubera and Surya zones), with NE excellent and West workable. South entrances need compensating design and are usually avoided when there’s a choice.
Why must the kitchen be in the South-East?
SE is the Agni (fire) corner, so the cooking flame matches its element. NW is the accepted alternate. A NE kitchen is the classic Agni dosha — water and fire zones clashing.
Where should the master bedroom go?
South-West — the earth zone gives stability and authority to the household head. Children’s rooms suit W/NW; guest rooms NW so guests "move on" pleasantly.
Is North-East always good?
For pooja, meditation, water storage and openness — yes. For heavy rooms, kitchens or toilets it is the most easily violated zone, so NE misuse generates the strongest doshas.
How do I measure my room’s direction?
Stand at the home’s centre with a compass (phone works): the bearing toward the room’s centre is its direction. 8 sectors of 45° each — e.g. 22.5°–67.5° is NE.
