Vastu rules for tying Rakhi:
According to Vaastu, brother should take special care of the rules of Vaastu while tying Rakhi. While tying Rakhi, sister’s face should be towards west and brother’s face should be towards east. It is believed that tying or getting Rakhi tied facing other directions increases negativity in life.
It is considered auspicious to tie red, pink, yellow and orange colored Rakhi to your brother. Avoid tying blue or black colored Rakhi.
According to Vastu, while tying Rakhi, the sister should cover the brother’s head with a handkerchief and should also keep her head covered.
It is believed that while tying Rakhi, the brother should sit on a small wooden stool or platform. Whereas the sister should sit on the seat of Kush.
Do not wear black or blue colored clothes while tying Rakhi. You can wear yellow, pink or orange colored clothes on this day.
In Vastu, tying Vedic Rakhi on brother’s wrist is considered very auspicious. It is believed that tying Vedic Rakhi removes all the sorrows and troubles from the life of the brother. Love and harmony increases in relationships. Brother gets a lot of respect in the society.
Vedic Rakhi: To tie Vedic Rakhi, put Durva, Akshat, mustard seeds, saffron, sandalwood powder and a small piece of silver or coin in a silk cloth and stitch it. Now tie it with Kalave and tie this Vedic Rakhi on brother’s wrist at the auspicious time.
