Astrological significance
The Vedic tradition regards Vastu Shastra as an applied expression of the same cosmic order (rita) that underpins Jyotish and other Vedic sciences. B. B. Puri's Vastu Science for 21st Century, while engaging with the subject through a contemporary lens, is grounded in a tradition that sees the orientation, design, and spatial arrangement of a building as reflecting and influencing the same elemental and planetary energies described in astrological texts. For Jyotish practitioners, applying Vastu principles is traditionally understood as an environmental form of astrological remediation, aligning the physical space of a person's life with supportive cosmic forces.
