The festival of Diwali is considered very important in Hinduism. In 2024, the festival of Diwali will be celebrated on Thursday, October 31. This festival is celebrated on the new moon day of the month of Kartik. Diwali is celebrated to mark the return of Lord Shri Ram to Ayodhya after completing 14 years of exile. Worshiping Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha on this day brings happiness and prosperity in the house.

Vastu Shastra and Diwali

Vastu Shastra also has a special significance on the occasion of Diwali. The right direction and cleanliness of the house brings positive energy into the house. Let us know some easy Vastu tips to be adopted on Diwali:

1. Remove junk from the house

Before Diwali, remove all old, broken things from the house like useless furniture, utensils, or old idols. These bring negative energy into the house. Bringing new things into the house brings prosperity.

2. Clean up

Clean the house thoroughly. Especially the corners and places where dirt usually accumulates. Keeping the house clean removes poverty and maintains prosperity in the house.

3. Get it painted

Painting the house on Diwali is considered auspicious. Use different colours in different directions of the house. For example, use green or pistachio colour in the north direction, blue or white in the east direction, and orange or yellow in the northeast.

4. Put a festoon on the door

It is considered auspicious to put a bandanwar of mango leaves on the main door of the house. This brings blessings from the gods. Make sure to also make the symbol of Swastika on the door.

5. Dehri Puja

The threshold should be kept strong and clean. A broken threshold is considered inauspicious. Vastu defects are removed by lighting a ghee lamp on the threshold.

6. Mop with salt

Mop the floor with salt to remove negative energy. Cleaning the house with rock salt maintains positive energy.

7. Light earthen lamps

Lighting earthen lamps from Dhanteras to Bhai Dooj is considered auspicious. This maintains happiness, peace and prosperity in the house.

8. Make Rangoli

It is considered auspicious to make Rangoli outside the house on Diwali. Make sure to make the symbol of Shri on the Rangoli. It is considered a symbol of prosperity and Goddess Lakshmi resides in it.

9. Burn camphor

Burning camphor regularly in the house removes Vastu defects. This increases the flow of positive energy in the house.

10. Perform the puja in the north-east direction

Diwali puja should be done in the north or east direction. Doing so brings wealth. All the family members should participate in the puja wearing yellow or red clothes. By adopting these simple Vastu tips, you can make the festival of Diwali even more auspicious and bring happiness and prosperity to your home.
