5 Vastu Doshas That Block Career Growth and Business Success

In today’s world, competition is everywhere. Whether you are working in a job or running a business, the challenges keep increasing. Despite your hard work, your career is stuck or your business is not growing, the reason may not only be competition but it could also be hidden Vastu doshas in your home or office. According to Vastu Shastra, incorrect placements and blockages of energy affect your growth, stability and opportunities.

Here are five common Vastu defects that can silently harm your career and business progress:

1. Yellow Color in the North Direction

The North direction in Vastu is linked to the water element, which governs money, opportunities and growth. Yellow represents the earth element and when placed in the North, it blocks the flow of financial and career-related energies.

Remedy:

  • Avoid using yellow in the North.
  • Replace yellow walls, curtains, or decor with blue shades (water element) to attract career opportunities and financial stability.

2. Main Entrance in the South-West

A South-West entrance is considered one of the biggest Vastu defects. The South-West zone represents stability (financial, mental, and professional). An entrance here disrupts this stability, leading to unstable careers, conflicts at the workplace, and business setbacks.

Remedy:

  • Close or cover the South-West entrance.
  • While buying a new house or office, avoid properties with entrances in this direction.

3. Toilet in the West Direction

The West direction is associated with profits, expansion, and motivation. Placing a toilet here blocks these energies, often causing people to get stuck just before achieving success.

Remedy:

  • Avoid toilets in the West.
  • If unavoidable, consult a Vastu expert for remedies like energy balancing or corrective placements.

4. Storeroom in the East Direction

The East direction symbolizes new beginnings, connections, and opportunities, just like the rising sun. When clutter or a storeroom is placed here, it blocks your growth and reduces networking opportunities essential for career and business success.

Remedy:

  • Keep the East direction open and clutter-free.
  • If a storeroom already exists, place green plants to reduce negative effects.

5. Septic Tank in the North-West

The North-West direction governs support and partnerships. A septic tank in this zone weakens your support system, making it difficult to receive help from employers, colleagues, banks, or business partners. This can stop both career progress and business funding.

Remedy:

  • Avoid septic tanks in the North-West.
  • Relocation or correction with Vastu remedies is essential for restoring positive support.

Vastu Shastra is more than tradition, it’s about balancing natural energies for harmony and growth. By correcting these five majors Vastu doshas, you can unlock new opportunities, achieve stability, and ensure steady progress in your career and business.
