Based principally on the movements of the suns rays, the principles of Vaastu mainly talk about eight main directions and their impact on various aspects of our life - including our financial well being. Given below are some tips to help to in whatever financial endeavor you choose.

Computers / software labs should be placed in the South East (SE).

Personal - SW shelf of the office

Other than the actual office, Vaastu Shastra also has some principles that can be applied while setting up a manufacturing unit or industry.

The main streets or roads leading up to the industry should be towards the E, N or NE. It is advisable to have two huge gates at the entrance.
Gates should be NE or E and NW or W.
The security should be either NW of the N gate or SE of the E gate.
Maximum space for plantation and large trees should be left in the N and E. S and W sides need little greenery.
The SW floor levels and ceiling must be higher than the floor and ceiling in the rest of the construction.
Any storage space needs to be built in the SW and storage must always be filled to capacity.
NW is a good direction for car parking.

It is important to remember that while the principles of Vaastu Shastra are scientific in nature, they only work towards creating an environment conducive to successful ventures. Vaastu Shastra is not magic and cannot breathe life into a dead business. Also, by taking care of the various Vaastu Shastra tips, you are not buying a lifetime guarantee free of troubles. You are only empowering yourself to be better equipped to fight whatever hurdles you may face.
