The vaasthu astrology is in the first place regarding the business that is done based on the trust. This vaasthu is very importantly noted by every person from our next door to the person ruling the country. In our families at least one of them will be impacted by it.
The information about the vaasthu has been evolving since the times of adharavan veda. In Sanskrit most of them has written many books about it. In olden days, beginning from the temple, the palaces, till the houses of the people everything were built by taking the facts of vaasthu into consideration. The supreme god of this vaasthu astrology is the vaasthu purushan.
It is told that in any new built house in the north-east side, the vaasthu purushan places his head and in the south-west side he places his leg and lies upside down. This site where he lies is called as vaasthu mandalam. It is believed that in this vaasthu mandalam, the gods who govern the eight directions split themselves into the eight directions. Apart from them there are forty five devars present in this vaasthu mandalam.
It is believed that the vaasthu purushar sleeps for four different months in a year and stays awake at the rest of the months. Hence based on his time of staying awake and sleeping, people begin with building and finishing the constructions. Like this the vaasthu astrology says certain set of rules for every act in the construction process.
You might be running out of questions like, why I named the post as site astrology and I am talking about the vaasthu astrology. That is the idea of this post. Since ages, the vaasthu astrology only was considered during the construction and has been highlighted as Tamilan's art. We believed that only.
But the fact is that there was a separate art which spoke about the techniques in construction and sculptures. Many temples that are present even today are the examples of these arts only. Though we have got many books about the vaasthu, the books about the site astrology is not yet found. But much information about the site astrology is being spread in the songs of the Siththars. But in those there is nothing about any god and nobody is sleeping in it. It is all related to the science only.
It is the responsibility of every Tamilian to gather all these information and give them collectively. I do not know if anybody has did anything like that. If there is anything like that please let me know.
In the next post I shall catch up with more details about the site astrology.
