Sometimes the subconscious mind notices what the conscious mind has not yet recognised. When we are asked a question spontaneously, the first word, thought or choice that comes to us can reveal what is occupying a deeper layer of the mind. Inspired by this idea, and by concepts studied in Ishwar Karma Prakash, Dr. Jayshree Om developed a simple Vastu exercise using the familiar format of Tic-Tac-Toe.
The result is the PEETHAM Game, Vid-Vāg-Vā — an interactive Vastu game that connects the subconscious mind, the nine-grid layout of a space and Chandrama, the Moon. In traditional Indian thought, Chandrama is associated with manas, or the mind. For this reason, the Moon becomes the key symbol in this Vastu exercise.
How the Vastu Tic-Tac-Toe Game Works
During a Vastu consultation, a Vastu consultant can play the game with the client without first explaining the meaning behind the Moon placements. The client simply plays naturally and places the Moon symbol wherever they instinctively choose.
In the framework of this exercise, the places where the client chooses to place the Moon become areas for the Vastu consultant to observe more carefully. They may indicate a part of the home that the client is subconsciously responding to or an area that could benefit from closer Vastu assessment.
The important point is that the game is not meant to create fear. A Moon placement does not mean that something bad will happen. It is simply an intuitive clue that can help guide a deeper Vastu consultation.
Try This Vastu Game With Your Family
You can also use the game as a simple quarterly Vastu tip for your home. Play it with a family member, but do not tell them beforehand what the Moon is meant to represent. Keeping the meaning hidden helps their choices remain spontaneous.
After the game, notice where the Moon has been placed. These areas can become your starting points for observing the energy of your home. Look at the actual physical space as well: Is it cluttered? Dark? Unused? Damaged? Uncomfortable? Does the family naturally avoid that area?
Rather than immediately labelling the direction as negative, use the result as an invitation to investigate.
What Can You Do With the Areas Identified?
Once an area has been highlighted, begin with simple corrections such as cleaning, decluttering and restoring order. Depending on the direction and the complete Vastu assessment, a trained consultant may also suggest suitable Vastu remedies such as directional posters, gemstones, Yantras or Dikpal-related corrections.
This is why the game works best as a companion to sound Vastu Shastra principles rather than as a replacement for a complete professional assessment.
How Often Should You Play?
Dr. Jayshree recommends playing the Vastu Tic-Tac-Toe Game approximately once every three months. A quarterly check-in makes the process light, practical and enjoyable while encouraging you to remain aware of changes in your home and your own relationship with the space.
Make Vastu fun. Do not fear the result. Think of the game as your subconscious mind gently pointing toward an area that deserves attention.
