Q-1 Why one should sleep with the head toward South?
Ans. North Pole of Earth & human head both are positive poles, due to which they repel each other. Flow of magnetic field is from North of South, so body in North South axis will receive magnetic field from the feet resulting in proper blood circulation, due to presence of iron in the blood.
Q-2 Why North East corner of the house is so auspicious. Why should we keep it open?
Ans. Due to the tilt of the Earth (22½°), North East corner of a structure receives energy. During early morning when the Sun is at its maximum distance from the Earth, only infra-red rays are able to reach the Earth, which are beneficial for the human body. Hence, North-East portion of the house should be such that it should receive beneficial infra-red rays.
Q-3 Are all houses situated in front of a T-junctions are bad and why?
Ans. One should avoid a building in front of a T-junction.

The harsh energy due to the traffic on the road entering directly into the premises results in a tense and negative environment.

Then the effect for the earlier person will be positive where as the effect from the new house for the latter person will be negative.
