A Beginner's Guide to Vastu Chakra Diyas

Vastu Shastra assigns a direction, a colour, and an intention to each day of the week. Our Vastu Chakra Diyas follow that same logic — seven small diyas, each carrying its own fragrance and colour, meant to be lit on its matching day.

Monday's gentle white diya, scented with jasmine, is traditionally lit for clarity and calm. Tuesday's fiery red, in cedarwood and juniper, is associated with courage and protection. Each day carries forward through Wednesday's airy green, Thursday's bloom yellow, Friday's blush pink, Saturday's rooted blue, and Sunday's radiant orange.

You do not need a full havan setup to use them. Light one diya each morning near your home's entrance, puja corner, or wherever feels most lived-in, and let it burn down naturally — each is made to last over four hours.

They are charcoal-free, built on an eco-friendly cow dung base with pure mustard oil, so the smoke is gentler than typical incense. When a diya is done, we suggest returning it to the earth or a river rather than the bin — a small, deliberate close to the ritual.
