I can see how the Vedic principles are making a layout that is weird by local standards. The pool is in the water corner, which puts it right in the front yard. But, pulling the house forward and putting the pool in the back yard, on the west side of the house, would apparently be very bad juju. When we were adding on to our original house and rectifying it to MMY-SV standards, we had to expand the existing north pond eastward to create more water surface area in the correct sector. Fortunately, all that fill dirt was put to good use making the new east pond. The old driveway used to go down a deep gully, over a culvert, and back up; now it goes straight across the top of a dam, and the dam needed to be wide enough that Petra didn't feel unsafe.
