The wallet is empty, but the dreams are big. Fortunately, Vastu Shastra, the ancient Indian practice of harmonizing energy, has a few tricks to attract prosperity—no shopping spree required.
Declutter Like Rent Depends on It
Vastu considers clutter a magnet for stagnation, and stagnation is the enemy of wealth. That pile of “someday useful” items is just blocking fresh opportunities. Clearing out unnecessary junk, especially from the northeast corner of any living space, makes room for financial growth.
Fix the Wallet Situation
A tattered wallet sends a signal of lack. Vastu suggests keeping it clean, organized, and preferably in shades of red, green, or black—colors linked to financial energy. A single grain of rice or a small silver coin inside also invites wealth, and unlike overpriced manifestation workshops, this tip is completely free.
Let the North Speak Money into Existence
The north direction is ruled by Kuber, the god of wealth. Keeping this area open, clean, and bright ensures that financial energy flows freely. A bowl of water with fresh flowers or even a mirror reflecting a well-lit space can enhance prosperity vibes.
Salt: The Budget-Friendly Energy Cleanser
Himalayan lamps are nice, but a simple bowl of salt in the house works just as well. Vastu experts believe salt absorbs negativity, clearing the way for abundance. Changing the salt weekly keeps energy fresh, and a sprinkle in mop water ensures financial blockages don’t stick around.
Sleep Like a Future Millionaire
Vastu recommends sleeping with the head pointing south or east for better financial stability. It’s a free life hack that requires zero effort, other than resisting the urge to scroll through social media until 3 AM.
Let the Stove Burn (Metaphorically, Not Literally)
A neglected or dirty stove represents stagnant finances. Cleaning it regularly and using all burners equally invites financial flow. Bonus points for cooking something golden like turmeric rice—it’s said to attract money, and at the very least, it’s a solid meal option.
Vastu may not turn pennies into millions overnight, but it shifts energy in the right direction. With a little rearranging and a lot of belief, fortune might just find its way home.
