Vastu Shastra Hacks That Will Turn 2025 Into Your Wealthiest Year Ever

Most of us have googled “How to make more money” at some point, right? Maybe it’s the post-holiday credit card bill or the existential dread of realizing avocado toast isn’t why we’re not millionaires. Enter 2025—a brand-new year brimming with possibilities, and maybe, just maybe, the year we finally stop pretending that budgeting apps alone can save us. That’s where Vastu Shastra comes in.


First up, the entrance to your house. According to Vastu, this is where all the good vibes (and, fingers crossed, good fortune) enter. Ensure your front door opens freely without creaks or obstacles; a stuck door symbolizes blocked opportunities. Place a doormat with vibrant colors, as it symbolizes welcoming energy. If your front door opens to a wall, fix it by adding a mirror or artwork that depicts growth, like blooming flowers or flowing rivers. Keep the area well-lit and clean to signal openness to abundance. Add potted plants near the door (but not thorny ones—we’re attracting cash, not bad vibes). Oh, and a wind chime? That’s like ringing a bell for good fortune to step inside.


Kitchen, it’s the heart of the home and, surprise, a big deal in Vastu. The stove symbolizes your financial health, so keeping it spotless is non-negotiable. Don’t let it be the stage for last night’s spaghetti explosion. Fix broken burners—they represent missed financial opportunities. Ensure the stove is positioned so the cook faces east while cooking, as this direction fosters positivity. Store grains, spices, and pulses in organized, airtight containers to represent financial stability. Avoid keeping the trash can near the stove; it’s seen as conflicting energies. Keep water and fire elements (like sinks and stoves) apart to avoid clashing energy—because you’re here to make money, not boil it away.


On to the bedroom—where you sleep, dream, and probably scroll through social media until your eyes sting. The bed should be placed so your head points south when you sleep, as this promotes positivity and growth. Avoid mirrors facing your bed; they’re said to bounce energy away while you rest. Instead, use calming artwork or soft lighting to create a peaceful vibe. Keep electronics like laptops or phones out of the bedroom—they disrupt the harmony. Use bedsheets in earthy tones for grounding energy, and ensure storage under the bed is clutter-free. Add a small bowl of sea salt in the room to absorb negative energy, and switch to wooden furniture for an earthy, wealth-friendly vibe.


And then there’s the clutter situation. Oh yes, the eternal battle against the junk drawer, the “clothes chair,” and the mountain of Amazon boxes you swear you’ll recycle. Vastu is a harsh but fair taskmaster here: clutter equals chaos, and chaos scares off wealth. Start by clearing the northeast corner first, as it’s the most auspicious zone. Donate unused items and avoid keeping broken or non-functional things—they represent stagnant energy. Ensure your closets and storage areas are organized; even hidden messes can disrupt flow. Bonus tip: Use fresh flowers or incense to rejuvenate the space. Keep the space under your staircase clutter-free, as it can store energy stagnation—and nobody’s getting rich with bad vibes hiding in the shadows.


Now for the pièce de résistance: the money corner. In Vastu, that’s the north or northeast area of your home. Keep it clean, well-lit, and adorned with symbols of abundance. Add gold or metallic objects to amplify wealth energy. A lush green plant like a jade plant or bamboo is ideal, as it symbolizes steady growth. Consider placing a small water feature, like a fountain, in this area to represent the constant flow of money. Avoid keeping heavy furniture or unused items in this zone—they block energy. And, of course, fix any leaking faucets—they’re the literal wealth drainers. Light a candle or a lamp here daily to energize the space and add a dash of cinnamon to your incense for that extra money-drawing boost.
