Principle
Land Energy Carries 70 Percent Weight in Land Selection
When selecting a plot, flat or industrial land, the energy of the land itself decides about 70 percent of the result, more than slope, shape or surrounding structures. A building made fully as per directional vastu can still fail on land with bad energy.

Dehleez Test: Breath and Body Signs When Setting Out to See a Plot
The threshold (dehleez) of the home acts as a testing machine: the moment you step over it to go and see a plot, flat or factory, your breath and body signal whether that property is good. Equal flow in both nostrils or left-side body signs warn against it; earth or water element in the breath and right-side signs approve it.
Predictionशकुन शास्त्र
Inauspicious Omens on the Way to See a Plot or Flat
Shakun shastra (nimitta gyan) reads the signs met on the way to a property; certain sights and events on the journey warn that the plot or flat is not good. They arise because the land's energy is already acting on the visitor's body chemistry.
Prediction
Auspicious Omens on the Way to See a Plot or Flat
Certain mangalik (auspicious) sights on the way to a property show that the plot or flat is very auspicious and will keep filling life with happiness.

Sights and Sounds on First Entering a Land or Flat
What one first sees and hears on stepping onto a land or into a flat indicates its energy: black items, broken things, snake holes and harsh sounds are bad signs, while a conch, aarti or auspicious songs, a rainbow or a joyful sky are good ones.
