The Science of Directions (Dikpalas)
In Vedic tradition, the 8 directions are guarded by 8 deities (Dikpalas). Your compatibility with a direction depends on the relationship between your Rashi lord and the Digpala (Guardian of the Direction).

Why Name-Based Vastu?
While your Birth Chart (Janma Kundali) is supreme, many people do not have accurate birth times. In such cases, the Nama Rashi (Name Sign) is considered the operating frequency of the individual. Ancient texts like Muhurta Chintamani validate checking Vastu compatibility using the name's first syllable (Avakahada Chakra).
