Ganesh Chaturthi, the birth anniversary of Lord Ganesha, is the time for fun, devotion, and spiritual rejuvenation. For ensuring that the celebrations invite positive energy and blessings to your home, adherence to Vastu Shastra principles will be immensely helpful. Presented here are six Vastu tips to follow on Ganesh Chaturthi:

1. Ideal Placement Direction

The northeast direction is considered to be most propitious to install the idol of Lord Ganesha and is associated with Ishanya's corner.This direction is related to prosperity and divine energy. If not then, it should be placed in east or west directions.

2. Choose the Right Idol

While choosing a Ganesha idol, it would be good to choose one with a curved trunk on the left-hand side because that is said to bring in peace, happiness, and prosperity. Unless you know some specific rituals said to please the idols of right-curved trunks, you should avoid them because there are differences in their mode of worship.

3. Prepare a Clean and High Platform

The place where the idol of Ganesha is to be kept should be clean, clutterless, and at a height. You can use an altar or even a raised platform for this. And one thing is to be avoided: placing the idol on the direct floor, as elevation depicts respect and regard.

4. Light Arrangement

Let the area surrounding the idol be well lit because light signifies that the Divine Energy is present in it. Diyas and incense sticks, on the other hand, are always auspicious in Vastu on the right-hand side of the idol.

5. Placement of Offerings

Offerings of flowers, fruits, and sweets should be made in front of the idol, kept facing Lord Ganesha. The offered things are to be fresh and properly set up, following respect and inviting positivity into your place.

6. Do Not Keep in Inauspicious Areas

Do not keep the Ganesha idol near the bathroom, beneath the stairs, or in any area of clutter or noise. This is considered an inauspicious setting that hampers the flow of positive energy.

Following these Vastu tips on Ganesh Chaturthi will help in creating an environment that would be spiritually uplifting and holy for the lords, thus welcoming peace, prosperity, and happiness into your homes.
