Vastu Tips: In general, the Tulsi plant is very important in Hindu astrology and religion. It is seen as a representation of the goddess Lakshmi. The Vastu Shastra states that in order to guarantee pleasure, success, and relief from numerous issues in your home, you need to adhere to certain guidelines about the Tulsi plant. There are certain things you should avoid doing with the Tulsi plant in order to preserve its positive energy and well-being, despite the plant’s many spiritual and physiological benefits.
Dr Aarti Dahiya, a Vastu expert and astrologer, will discuss what you should and shouldn’t do with tulsi plants to maintain the prosperity of your home.
Avoid plucking Tulsi at this time
Basil leaves should never be picked at night, according to Vastu, as this might lead to several issues and Vastu flaws in the home. Basil is said to repose at night, therefore plucking leaves after sunset is generally frowned upon since it may displease Goddess Lakshmi and result in financial loss for the household. Basil leaves should never be picked with unclean hands or unclean bodies, in addition to this belief. After taking a bath, wash your hands before handling basil and only handle it while wearing clean clothes.
Avoid Plucking Tulsi on these days
Basil leaves (Health Benefits Of Tulsi Leaves) should not be picked on Sundays, Tuesdays, or Ekadashi, according to Vastu. Furthermore, it is forbidden to give water to Tulsi on these days. Even at night, you should refrain from watering Tulsi. Furthermore, you should avoid picking basil leaves during solar or lunar eclipses. Astrology says that if you don’t follow this, various losses could also happen in addition to Vastu flaws in the home.
Don’t Put Tulsi in this direction
Vastu states that putting a tulsi plant in the south, south-west, west, or north-west directions can result in Vastu problems in the home. Additionally, a tulsi plant should never be kept on a house roof. Place it in the house’s courtyard or toward the northeast of the building. This plant can be kept close to your home’s temple as well. In addition, you should never store a tulsi plant in a dark area since this could result in losses.
Avoid placing Tulsi in these places
It is not advisable to have Tulsi plants on the roof or at the front door of the house. Never store it in an area where Ganapati or Shivalinga are worshipped. It is important to note that Shivlinga should never be kept in a Tulsi pot, and when planting Tulsi, no picture of Ganapati should be placed inside the pot.
Keeping a Tulsi plant on the balcony of the home is very auspicious. Never store slippers or shoes close to tulsi plants. You might incur several losses and ruin household goods if you do this.
What if the Tulsi plant dried?
Vastu and astrology also revere the dried herb known as Tulsi. It is stated that you could lose a lot of money if you dispose of the plant improperly or in the trash once it dries.
It is said that the dried Tulsi plant should only be brought outside on auspicious days. For example, on Fridays, you can submerge it in a sacred river outside your home or store it beneath a tree. Remember that you should immediately plant a new basil plant inside the home after removing the dried-out one.
