Plot Checker
Check your plot's shape, facing direction, ground slope and zone extensions or cuts — four independent, sourced, deterministic verdicts.
1. What's your plot's shape?
2. Which direction does your plot/road face?
Colors show every direction's fit at a glance.
3. Which way should your plot slope?
One governed rule, not a picker — ground should be high where marked, low where marked, so water drains toward the auspicious zones.
4. Extensions & cuts, zone by zone
An extension is where your plot bulges out beyond a straight boundary in that zone; a cut is where that corner is missing or truncated.
Plot Vastu — questions people ask
What is the best shape for a plot in Vastu?
A perfect square is the classical ideal — the Vastu Purusha Mandala itself is a square grid. A rectangle within roughly a 1:2 breadth-to-length ratio is fully acceptable. Triangular, circular, L-shaped and arrow/dart-shaped plots are documented as the shapes to avoid.
Which direction should a plot face?
East and North-facing plots carry the broadest classical and modern consensus as most auspicious, tied to the rising sun and growth-oriented zone deities. South and Southwest-facing are the least preferred. A minority modern view reframes this by occupant profession rather than a universal hierarchy — this checker ships the majority position and documents the alternative.
Which way should a plot slope?
Classical guidance is consistent: the ground should be highest in the Southwest and slope down toward the Northeast, so that water naturally drains toward the auspicious North/Northeast/East zones rather than pooling there.
Is a Northeast cut in a plot really a serious problem?
Yes — a missing or cut Northeast corner is the single most-cited plot dosha across every source consulted for this tool, tied to the Ishanya (sacred) zone-deity assignment. A Northeast extension, by contrast, is the single most auspicious plot feature documented.
Where do this tool's verdicts come from?
Every verdict is read from a versioned, deterministic rule set compiled from classical Vastu sources and cross-checked against modern practitioner guides. The same input always produces the same output, and every result lists its sources with a confidence level. No AI generates or alters verdicts.
