In the signs of Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces, house construction should never be undertaken as it leads to instability. The income Aya; a Vastu calculation for prosperity of the house is determined by multiplying the length and width of the structure and then dividing by eight. The remainder determines the "Aya" or character of the house.
The "Aya" types are: Flag Dhwaja for the West, Smoke Dhumra for the Northwest, Lion Simha for the North, Dog Shvana for the Northeast, Bull Vrisha for the East, Donkey Khara for the Southeast, Elephant Gaja for the South, and Crow Dhvanksha for the Southwest. ॥ 67 ॥ However many cubits original: "Hasta" are in the width and length of the house, multiply them and divide the product by eight. The remainder determines the Aya. The names of the Ayas in order are: 1. Flag, 2. Smoke/Crow, 3. Lion, 4. Dog, 5. Bull, 6. Donkey, 7. Elephant, and 8. Crow. Among these, the Flag, Bull, and Elephant are considered the most auspicious; the others are forbidden or secondary. The Flag-Aya house can face any direction, but the Elephant-Aya should face South or East.
Multiply the area of the land by eight and divide by the number of stars 27 to find the House Nakshatra astral signature of the building. This is used to determine the wealth or debt of the house. ॥ 68 ॥ The width multiplied by the "Aya" factor gives the Nakshatra. For the West, multiply by two and divide by seven to know the star. If the remainder is one, it is the first Aya. The names of the owner should be matched with the house's star. Divide by three; if the remainder is odd, it is auspicious. Just as one matches a bride and groom, the master of the house and the house itself must be compatible in their planetary lords and star signs. ॥ 69 ॥ The star of the house and the star of the master should be analyzed like a marriage. The relationship of the zodiac signs—specifically the 3rd/11th and 4th/10th positions—must be considered.
