Key takeaways
Sleep with your head toward South or East. West is acceptable; North is traditionally avoided. The master bedroom suits the South-West. Avoid mirrors facing the bed and keep a solid wall behind the headboard.
A Vastu report is only as good as the North direction and boundary you set on your own plan. For a standard rectangular home or office, the automated grids answer most directional questions honestly; book a consultation when the plot is irregular or the decision is irreversible.
