Vastu Recommendations For Your Home: Things You Should Never Do After Sunset

Vastu Shastra, also known as the Ancient Science of Architecture, aids in the creation of a good environment in your house.

The Ancient Science of Building, Vastu Shastra, is based on five elements: Prithvi, fire, light, wind, and sky. Vastu Shastra integrates science, art, astronomy, and astrology to provide ideas and concepts for creating a living environment that is in harmony with nature while including geometric patterns, symmetry, and directional alignments. It is thought to have developed from the Vedic period and is being practised now. Vastu shastra for the home is the combination of suitable orientation and arrangement of areas for activities related to the four cardinal directions (north, south, east, and west).

Apart from that, Vastu shastra advises that some jobs are best performed in the morning and at night. They are minor details, yet they are critical. According to Hindu mythology, individuals should avoid performing certain duties at night or as the sun sets in order to obtain the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi. As a result, we have created a list of such jobs that you should never conduct after sunset.

Things you should never do after dark

Haircutting or Combing :
Women are not supposed to cut or comb their hair after sundown. They should also refrain from sleeping with their hair exposed. Women who perform these duties at night are reported to be influenced by bad energy.

Do Not Wash Utensils :
According to Hindu mythology, one should keep their kitchen clean before bed, but if they are unable to do so, they should store their filthy desires someplace other than the kitchen. The kitchen is an auspicious space in every home and should be kept clean. Those who sleep with dirty dishes in the kitchen are also said to be cursed with poverty and bad luck.

Do not make a donation : 
In Hinduism, donations are considered auspicious. On the other hand, it is also thought that donating milk, sugar, or salt late at night is a terrible omen. By indulging in such actions, one may face financial difficulties and insecurity in life.

Avoid cutting your nails :
We've all heard our mums caution us not to trim or shape our nails at night. According to popular belief, Goddess Lakshmi visits residences at night, and removing hair and nails is thought to be presenting filth to the goddess, which should be avoided in any circumstances.

Avoid Cleaning Your Home : 
Cleaning your house with a broom in the morning is regarded auspicious, but brooming your house at night is said to bring ill luck and misfortune. Goddess Lakshmi does not visit houses that are cleaned after sunset.
