(1) HOW TO CHOOSE A PLOT

One should be very careful before taking any decision. Some basic points I have already told , now the main things that one should consider are (1) Orientation of plot (2) Four side angles of the plot in respect to orientation.

• The length of the plot should be more in North-South direction as compared to East-West direction.
• If all the corner angles of plot are 90 degrees , it is a good plot.

• A plot with all corners 90 degrees having two sides road front and back is a good plot.
• A plot with four corners having 90 degrees angles with three sides of four sides road is a very good plot.
• If the house is projected in any of the either directions , then one should always consider the following rules. The North/East projection is good and is recommended.

• The South/East , South/West and North/West projections are not the good sites and are not recommended according to vastu but if one has already has this kind of plot , it can be corrected.

• If you are seeing the plot which is cut on either direction , then it is not recommended.

• Now if the plot angles are not at 90 degree , be sure about it whether it is ‘shermukha plot’ or ‘gowmukha plot’. The shermukha plot is one which has a broader entrance and it becomes narrower as we go in. It is NOT at all recommended for the residence.

• The gowmukha plot is one which is narrower at the entrance and becomes broader as we go in. It is very auspicious.

Usually people believe that South facing plot is not good ,this and that these are all myths ,it entirely depends upon the full orientation ,. The entrance of the house depends on the zodiac sign of the owner. It is as follows.

1.	Kark ( Cancer) Virchak (Scorpio ) Meen (Pisces)	EAST facing plot
2.	Mithun (Gemini) Kanya ( Virgo) Makar ( Capricorn )	SOUTH facing plot
3.	Rishab ( Taurus) Tula (Libra) Kumbh ( Aquarius)	WEST facing plot
4.	Mesh ( Aries) Singh (Leo) Dhanu ( Saggitarius)	NORTH facing plot

This zodiac sign principle is followed by many vastukaars but it is desirable to fix main door or gate in favourable position instead of following Zodiac sign of owner , as the house will be occupied by his descendents also for generations.
