A toilet, wherever it may be placed in the house or workplace, does bring with it a whole lot of negativity. Perhaps, that’s the reason that in the ancient times, a toilet was always a little cut off, removed or placed at a distance from the actual place of residence. In today’s day and age, it not only is a part of our house but also an extension of practically every room in the house. Remember, more the number of toilets, more the negative impact on the residents.
1. North: Being the zone of career, if we have a toilet here, we often find sluggishness in career prospects, career growth and obstruction in wealth. There are always obstacles that keep coming in our professional lives.
2. South: A toilet here prevents us from moving forward and despite the efforts and hard work we put in, into our work, we always find appreciation lacking.
3. East: A toilet here always acts as an obstacle in the way of growth and prosperity. It may even lead to poor health.

5. South West: A toilet here often causes a rift between couples and family members and interferes with the relationships. It also leads to instability in life and residents may find support lacking.
6. South East: With a toilet being here, it brings bad health to the residents.
