Best placed in the East
East suits a child’s room: first light, growth and the morning start the tradition wants for anyone still studying.
What the East governs
East is Indra’s direction and the Sun’s: the first light, and the direction the tradition orients study, prayer and the start of the day towards. Like the north it wants openness rather than mass.
Where the Children’s bedroom belongs
A child’s room is read differently from the master bedroom: it wants movement, growth and morning light rather than weight. The tradition is also more relaxed here, and school-age and adult children are often placed differently.
