The construction of east-facing house should be commenced when the sun is in the
zodiacal house of kumbha and makara. That of south- facing house should be
commenced when the sun is in mesha and vrushabha. That of west-facing house
should be started when the sun is in simha and karkata. That of north-facing house
should be commenced when the sun is in tula and vruscika. All other four months-
mithuna, kanni, dhanus and mina- are not desirable. In the east, house oriented towards
the interior of the village should never be opted for. If built, it will be ruined within
one year.

From the perspectives of the ground plan of village or city, it is to be noted that the
edifice built in the grids of Sun will certainly afflict the owner. Houses built in the
grids of Mars will destroy the prosperity of the owner.
