Vāstuśāstra - Aura of One's Residence and Health know whether the changes done by us are appropriate.
Image Vastu No. 7 - This image is of an in-house temple, in which blue and white colours are due to image of God, while black colour in the lower side shows Geopathic Stress of the room and house. I believe that if Geopathic Stress is removed than only some changes can be brought.

Image Vastu No. 8 shows a Drawing Room in a house, Image Vastu No. 9 shows aquarium that is a show piece and Image Vastu No. 10 is of a kitchen. In all three image, aura shows that the things in it are not according to Vastuśāstra.
The aura of a formally installed (a complete having performed all the prescribed religious rites) idol of Tirthankara has been practically observed to be 90 metres wide. On December 1, 2006 Dr Amaresh Mehta measured the aura of the idol of Ava Śri Ādināthaji, the 1st Tirthankara of Jainism, chief deity of the Jain temple at Sonawala building, Tardeo, Mumbai - 400 007 (India). Though it not very ancient, its aura was found to be 45 metres wide. In another practical exercise the width of the aura of Śri Uvasaggaharam Pārśvanātha was observed to
be 99 metres wide.
It is observed that the aura of an idol formally placed (with performance all prescribed rituals and ceremonies) in a temple has an aura 90 metres wide. As per Jain tradition the greatest Avagraha (maximum distance from which one can offer obeissance to the Lord) of an idol is 60 hands or 90 feet. The aura of the Lords idol is almost white.
Here, only some examples have been cited, otherwise this is a vast subject and it is not possible to explore it
