Dining Table
Food For Thought
The dining room or area
has a special place in vaastu shastra.
The room should
contain a table large enough for family and guests to entertain with
food. Keep in mind that the dining area is directly related to the
health, harmony as well as prosperity of the family.
A good dining room,
which has been made using vaastu principles, often brings strength to
all members of the family.
A dining room that
is in harmony will naturally strengthen human relationships among
friends and family.
Regardless of
whether you take your meal at the dining table regularly or not, there
are some simple vaastu suggestions about the dining room that you’ll
want to observe:

the energy flow, so the dining table should ideally be in a spuare or
rectangular shape.

facing north or east.

green, orange as well as yellow is highly recommended in the dining
