Why is a drawing room in the South-East considered bad?
The SE suits the kitchen, where fire is needed just as a roti needs fire to cook. In a drawing room we do not want heat or aggravated pitta while putting our views across; in the SE pitta and heat rise, bringing anger, irritation and an aggressive tone, so it is advised against.
How can a puja room in the South-East be corrected?
If it holds a consecrated (pratishthit) idol, the idol should be moved. If the idol is not consecrated, there is no need to worry, as these rules apply to consecrated idols.
Will an AC or cooler in the South-East cool down its fire element?
No. An AC or cooler is cooled by electricity, not by ice; when the power goes it stops. It runs on electricity and so represents the fire element, which suits the SE. Place coolers in the same zones as ACs.
A washing machine uses water, so why can it go in the South-East?
What runs it is electricity, which represents fire; the kitchen in the SE also has water. So a washing machine can go in the SE, ESE, SSE and also the North-West.
If the planet of profit sits in the 11th house in its own sign, will a South-East entrance for the office be good?
Yes, it will suit, because the lord of the house of gains is swagrahi there.
What should be done when Jupiter is exalted?
Give importance to the Ishaan (North-East), spend more time there and keep a silver mangal kalash. In the same way use the direction of every good planet with its colours, such as the South-East for a good Venus. If a planet is debilitated, use its direction as little as possible and avoid its colours.
Does amethyst in the South-East work better than an akhand deepak?
No. Nothing works better than an akhand deepak; what 10 or 50 grams of ghee burning in it does, nothing else does.
My house entry is in the SSW and my 10th house has Sun, Mercury, Moon and Ketu with an exalted Venus; can I move the entry to the South-East?
If you open the South, open it in the good South pada (S4 as heard), and if you open the West, in the good West pada (W4 as heard). The present South-West entry should be corrected with door power.
