The God of structures, also known as - Vaastu Purush, provides protection, happiness and prosperity to its habitants
if Vaastu/ Vastu principles are followed.

The Vaastu Purush is the presiding deity of any site.
Usually he is depicted as lying on it with the head in the
North-East and the legs in the South-West but he keeps changing
his position throughout the year.

lies in that particular month. Table below gives you this

The Vaastu Purush lies with his back up. The concept may be that the burden is carried on the back. It is a rule that pillars are not to be raised on the sensitive points of Vaastu Purush. The sensitive points according to the science of physics are inlets and outlets.
It is presumed that the Vaastu Purush would suffocate if inlets and outlets are blocked with pillars. The sensitive points exist also on the folds of the arms and legs. Pillars, if erected on those points, would not find enough base and support. Therefore, those points are to be avoided for pillars.
