About The Zone
Northeast
Water
Isa
The northeast, the gateway to the gods, is the recipient of positive cosmic energy. This quadrant should not have heavy or tall objects so that the energy can move freely through the space. The element of water reinforces calm and tranquility.
Southeast
Fire
Agni
The southeast belongs to the element of fire, which brings heat and passion. Agni symbolizes the sacred fire and so this quadrant acts as a great purifier.
Southwest
Earth
Pitri
The southwest quadrant, which is the realm of the earth element, should be built up and reinforced with heavier objects that hold in the cosmic energy. This quadrant is associated with strength. As the region of Pitri, the lord of ancestors, the southwest also embodies the wisdom of the departed.
Northwest
Air
Vayu
The northwest, representing the element of air, signifies movement and restlessness. The wind comes and goes. The northwest is also an area that brings a quick flow of ideas.
