VAASTU SHASTRA FACTOR | FIVE ELEMENTS OF NATURE

According to Vaastu Shastra every living and non-living element on Earth is composed of the five elements - Earth, Fire, Water, Air and Space.

SPACE (Aakaasha) - the unending region beyond Earth in which not only our Solar System but the entire Galaxy exists. It provides shelter to the other four elements.

AIR (Vaayu) - the atmosphere above the Earth consists of Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, water vapour, Dust etc which are all essential for living things to flourish. Human physical comfort values are directly and sensitively dependent on correct humidity, air flow, temperature of air, air pressure, air composition and its content.

FIRE (Agni) - It represents light and heat without which life will be extinct. Days and nights, seasons, energy, enthusiasm, passion, vigour are because of light and heat only.

WATER (Jala) - This is represented by rain, river, sea and is in the form of liquid, solid (ice) and gas (steam, cloud). Every plant and animal is composed of water in different proportions.

EARTH (Bhumi) - Earth, the third planet in order from the Sun, is a big magnet with North and South poles as centers of attractions. Its magnetic field and gravitational force has considerable effect on everything on the Earth, living and non-living. Seasons are formed because the Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees and because it revolves around the Sun once every year. Day and night are formed because the Earth rotates on its axis from West to East.
There is an invisible and constant interaction between these elements. These forces act for or against each other to create harmony or disharmony. It is upto the living things, to understand the effectiveness of the five elements and use them to their advantage in creating a harmonious environment to live in.

ANIMALS, BIRDS, INSECTS, PLANTS- have natural defenses against a wide variety of unfavourable

    It's obvious to anybody, really is the daily cycle, what astronomers call the diurnal cycle. The daily motions, the diurnal cycle we see in the sky are caused by the rotation of the Earth on its axis. When viewed from above Earth, the North Pole, the Earth spins in a counterclockwise direction, eastward (from west to east),. It makes a complete rotation of 360 degrees in a little less than 24 hours (more precisely 23.9 hours). For this reason, when viewed from the Earth’s surface, the Sun, Moon, and stars appear to rise in the east and set in the west, making a complete rotation of 360 degrees in a little less than 24 hours. So here we are on the Earth, it's a big, spinning ball. But to us, attached to…

    As the earth spins on its axis, producing night and day, it also moves about the sun in an elliptical (elongated circle) orbit that requires about 365 1/4 days to complete. The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected. Since the tilt of the axis is 23 1/2 degrees, the North Pole never points directly at the Sun, but on the summer solstice it points as close as it can, and on the winter solstice as far as it can. Midway between these two times, in spring and autumn, the spin axis of the earth points 90 degrees away from the sun. This means that on this date, day and night have about the same length: 12 hours each, more or less.…

    Air Pressure

    • 451 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Air is composed of molecules. Air is matter. It has mass and takes up space. Air is composed of different gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases. Air molecules are in constant motion. As they move, they come in contact with surfaces. Air molecules push and press on the surfaces they contact. The amount of force per unit area that air molecules exert on a surface is called air pressure. (What is Air Pressure 6) Air pressure is caused by all of the air molecules in the Earth's atmosphere pressing down on the Earth's surfaces. We can measure air pressure to help us predict weather conditions around the world. Temperature also affects air pressure because air contracts when it cools and expands when it is heated. So if air above a region of Earth cools, it does not extend to as high an altitude as the surrounding air. In this case, its pressure at higher temperature is lower than in the surroundings even when the pressure at the surface is the same as in surrounding areas. Then air flows into the cooler region at high altitude, making the total weight of air above the region greater than in the surroundings. This is a "high". The cool air descends to the earth's surface. Near the surface, the falling air spreads out,…

    A: The atmosphere is described as the gaseous envelope of air that surrounds the earth. It is a complex mixture of gases needed to sustain all life. Most of it is very close to the earth’s surface, where it is densest at the seal level and thins as altitude increases. The hydrosphere comprises water in all forms. The oceans contain a good majority of the water found on Earth and are the source for most precipitation. The cryosphere is a subcomponent of the hydrosphere where water is frozen as snow or ice. The biosphere encompasses all the parts of Earth where all living organisms can exist. The lithosphere is the solid, inorganic part of earth. It is the rocks of the earth’s crust as well as broken and unconsolidated particles of mineral matter that overlie the solid bedrock.…
