A northwest-facing house in Vastu is ruled by the air element (Vayu), ideal for movement, relationships, and adaptability, but requires careful planning to balance potential restlessness; key tips involve keeping the area light, airy, and clutter-free, placing guest rooms/living areas here, using metal decor, ensuring good ventilation, and using remedies like wind chimes or pyramids to harmonize its airy, ever-changing energy for stability and growth.
