EP 31: Is Your Home Making You Poor? The Scams vs. Science of Vastu Shastra

In this fascinating episode of The Kapoor Podcast, we dive deep into the ancient wisdom of Vastu Shastra and Vedic Astrology with Saurin Dave, a renowned certified astrologer and professional engineer. Saurin provides a masterclass on how the alignment of your home and the movement of planets deeply influence your health, wealth, and mental peace. We explore how to harmonize the five elements—Earth, Air, Water, Fire, and Sky—to create a living environment that generates positive cosmic energy. The conversation also breaks down the science behind professional success, as Sauran analyzes the horoscopes of iconic figures like Mahatma Gandhi and Albert Einstein. He addresses common myths, explaining why Saturn (Shani) is a strict judge of karma rather than an "evil" planet, and provides a roadmap for those living in Western homes where traditional construction changes aren't always possible.
