🦜 Increasing the sattva guṇa, jyotiśa, Vāstu combinations (rāśi, gṛha) & upāsana. The three guṇas in Vāstu and jyotiśa. Food, colours etc, and their effects.
This prakṛti or śakti is triguṇa which means it exhibits itself with these three divisional outputs. Even the pañca tattvas are made of these three guṇa only. As the dominance of pañca tattva changes in every 33/4 Ghati the nature or mood of the person can change every day. Even the three states of consciousness- the waking state, the sleeping state and the dream state represents the three guṇa.
🦜 When sattva guṇa dominates then goodness predominates body and environment & we are cheerful, light-hearted, more alert and aware. It brings selflessness.
🦜 In the predominance of Rajo guṇa, excitement, thoughts, desires and desires increase greatly. There is a desire to do a lot. We are either very happy or very sad. It brings selfishness but not on the cost of hurting others.
🦜 When Tamo guṇa predominates, we become victims of lethargy, laziness and confusion. It brings selfishness at any cost.
In jyotiśa the predominant rāśi and planets indicates the guṇa which will be predominant in a human. The planets change attributes according to signs so Mars placed in pieces will act in a sātvika way. Please note that predominant sātvika signs will never make you rich and success will be late. Rājasika signs will make you rich and success will be quick. Tāmasika signs can work both ways. In kalayuga, the tāmasika are predominant.

Important rules:
🦜 The sātvika guṇa can change based on Vāstu, time of the day, sādhana and food. So, these things need proper control for increasing this guṇa. The guṇas are not stable in directions and change with horoscope. So even when Karka (sātvika, brāhmaṇa) rules south side whose lord is Mars (tāmasika), the position of Jupiter in exaltation in someone’s chart will reduce the effect of tāmasika mars even in south direction. Hence Mars gets debilitated in a tāmasika sign even when it is in south. It feels happy in rājasika sign only. Similarly, Jupiter occupying west direction having an aspect from Mars will cause unmāda rogā as medhā will be vitiated. In this case South and NE should not carry large machinery otherwise the person will land up in mental asylum.
🦜 Vāstu is an individualistic imprint and except some none of the rules will be universal. For e.g. Mars is exalted in Makar (both tāmasika) but never loses buddhi (mercury) ruling the direction. However, in the case of such a person, planting heavy machinery or painting the direction North in red colour will bring disaster to the person.
🦜 Vāstu of RCC structures carries tāmasika effect. Hence the bad effects can be felt in large buildings and conglomerates where ethical practices are kept at bay.
🦜 The afflictions to signs Capricorn and Aquarius & the planet mercury will bring nerve related troubles specially if water tank is made in north direction.
🦜 The flag and colours of flag like red and blue of America indicates tāmasika effect on nation. Indian tricolour carries rājasika and sātvika colours. We are not a rich nation but as a result ethics and spirituality is still exercised.
🦜 The large iron objects, old objects like antiques etc. point towards pitṛ dośa in the chart of the native. If Sun sits in front of Saturn in chart then the person will not rise in life till his father is alive.
🦜 The colours white and yellow increase the sātvika properties. So colouring walls and wearing such clothes increase the sātvika tendencies.
🦜 Eating food as required in the right quantity, food which is digestible, fresh (cooked few minutes before) and less chilli-spicy, such food is sattvic food and can increase sātvika guṇa. Rajasic tendencies prefer spicier, chili-spicy, sharply salty or more sweet food. Tāmasika tendency prefer food that is stale, old cooked and injurious to health (basically fast food). According to Ayurveda, food cooked 6-7 hours before is tamasic.
🦜 Garlic, onion, chillies, asafoetida etc are tāmasika in effect.
🦜 Any kind of Upāsana done with three guṇas will only result in issues rather then Mukti. Though Sattva pushes towards Mukti however the uppermost layer of tapasyā is without any guṇa or is nirguṇa. So, it is better to reduce all guṇa and do nirguṇa upāsana. The kalayuga upāsana or gurus are more inclined towards rājasika and tāmasika.
