Salt is that ingredient whose presence might not be acknowledged, but its absence is highly felt. And did you know, salt does more than make bland food finger-licking good. Celebrity astrologer Acharya Vinod Kumar Ojha shares that salt holds significant importance in the vastu shastra, and explains how to use it to cleanse and purify your home from negative energies.
“Salt is believed to have the ability to absorb negative energies and promote positivity within the living space. Placing bowls of salt in different areas of the house, especially in corners or areas where the energy feels stagnant, is a common practice to absorb negativity and purify the environment,” he said, adding that taking a salt bath is recommended in various cultures and spiritual practices for its cleansing and rejuvenating properties.
He stressed that a salt bath is believed to not only cleanse the physical body but also cleanse the aura and remove any negative energies attached to it. The minerals present in salt have a purifying effect on both the body and the mind, leaving one feeling refreshed and energetically renewed.
He said, “The relationship between salt and personal growth can be seen symbolically as well. Salt is often associated with purity, wisdom, and protection across different cultures. By purifying the environment and cleansing negative energies, salt facilitates a conducive atmosphere for personal growth and spiritual development. Just as salt removes impurities from the surroundings, it encourages individuals to let go of negativity, fears, and limitations, allowing them to grow and thrive in a harmonious environment.”
Acharya ji further asserted that the significance of salt in Vastu Shastra goes beyond its physical properties. “It encompasses spiritual and energetic aspects as well. Whether through its use in cleansing rituals or its symbolic representation of purity and protection, salt plays a vital role in promoting positivity, balance, and personal growth within oneself and in the surrounding environment,” he concluded.
