A North-West (NW) cut in Vastu means a missing or reduced corner, considered a defect that brings issues like financial loss, legal troubles, communication problems, and health issues (lung/depression) as this zone governs air and movement. Remedies involve balancing the air element with light colors (white, cream), metal wind chimes, purifying plants (Areca, Peace Lily), Vastu pyramids, and installing a large mirror in the cut area to reflect energies, while avoiding heavy objects or water tanks.
