How this is scored

Higher is better. 100 = fully aligned with traditional Vastu principles; 0 = inauspicious on every axis. Three geometric signals combine into the total:

Facing direction  β€” 40 points

Bearing from the home toward the nearest road (the direction your front entrance faces). Vastu favors entrances that catch morning light and the "Ishanya" (NE) energy corner.

DirectionPointsInterpretation
N / E / NE40Most auspicious β€” morning sun, NE is the divine corner
NW30Acceptable β€” air element
W22Tolerable
SE20Mixed β€” "fire" corner; okay for kitchens, not entrances
S12Poor β€” harsh afternoon sun, Yama (death) direction
SW0Worst β€” "Nairutya," associated with negative energy

Site slope  β€” 30 points

Elevation sampled at four corners of a 60m box around the property. Vastu prefers land that rises toward the SW (so the NE corner is lower) β€” symbolically draining negative energy away from the auspicious NE.

SW βˆ’ NE (m)PointsInterpretation
β‰₯ +0.530Ideal β€” SW noticeably higher than NE
βˆ’0.5 to +0.518Effectively flat β€” acceptable
βˆ’2.0 to βˆ’0.58NE slightly higher β€” mild concern
< βˆ’2.00Inauspicious β€” NE much higher than SW

Plot shape  β€” 30 points

Derived from the TCAD parcel polygon. Three sub-signals, summed:

  • Aspect ratio (0–12 pts) β€” width / height of the north-aligned bounding box. Square-ish (1.0–1.5) is best; slivers (>3.0) score 0.
  • Convexity (0–10 pts) β€” polygon area Γ· convex-hull area. 1.0 = convex (ideal); L-shaped or pinched lots score lower. Vastu strongly prefers regular shapes.
  • Cardinal alignment (0–8 pts) β€” how far (degrees) the longest edge is from N/S/E/W. Lots aligned with compass directions score higher.

What's missing: kitchen position, master bedroom, prayer/pooja room, exact door placement, interior colors, water features β€” all require a floorplan or site visit. A strict Vastu reading would include these; this score is directional only.
