Vastu Shastra for Stair case / Steps :

The steps can be built anywhere except in the North-East towards East and the North-East towards North directions. While constructing the steps at the East, they should not touch the house Eastern wall or the Eastern compound. While placing the steps in the Northern side, they should not touch the house Northern wall or the Northern compound. While constructing the steps in the Southern side, they can touch the house Southern wall or the Southern compound. While building the steps in the Western side, they can touch the house Western Wall or the Western compound. While starting to climb the steps, it is best to climb from East to West first and a turn can be taken to any side later. (The climbing of the steps should not be from West to East). While starting to climb the steps it can also be started from North to South first, and a turn can be taken to any side later. (The climbing of the steps should not be from South to North). If steps are being built outside, then they can be built in the South-East in East, North-West in North, South-West in West and South-West in South. Now we can discuss about something about steps. Steps are called with different names in different places as Rung, shed, stair case, steps etc. How to arrange steps, where to place the steps at our house or at our factory, so many are doing mistakes by placing the steps, once that leads to severe problems, here are some guidelines for placing steps and constructing their structure. Depending on the availability of vacant place or site inside or outside around our home they can be arranged against entrance or outside. For example an inside or internal staircase has to be provided, then the room in the north east or north west should be left out.

Observe the above house plan there is one portico, this portico has came into northeast corner of the house, and the steps came into southeast corner of the house, here one arrow mark is moving from portico to steps side, it shows that the line of the staircase is not over cross the portico, this is the important point at staircase at east side. Actually the portico has to cross the stair case towards east side so that Eshan will raise than Agneya, if the portico is lesser than stair case it means that the stair case coming forward i.e., Agneya risen. And at every direction there must be some specifications for stair case. Before constructing the house, you have to take some precautions on every side i.e., steps, kitchen, bedroom etc. So its always better to consult one experienced Vastu Shastra consultant before constructing the house or selecting the plot.
