What is Mangal Dosha?

Mangal Dosha is an astrological drawback that many people seem to have these days. It is associated with the planet Mars, which also known as Mangal or Kuja in Sanskrit, and people having this drawback are called Mangalik. A horoscope has 12 houses or quarters in which different planets and moons reside. In this condition, the planet Mars is generally found to reside in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th and 12th quarters of the person’s horoscope, hence the name Mangal Dosha, or Kuja Dosha, or Bhom Dosha.

Mars is connected with everything red, like anger, ego, respect and self-esteem. So people governed by this planet generally tend to be very short-tempered and egotistical. Their personality is said to be like fire, which is hot and dangerous. With a ruthless and highly contemptuous attitude, it becomes hard for Mangaliks to adjust with romantic partners or family members. They also go through financial trouble. However, if a Mangalik happens to be born on a Tuesday, or gets married to another Mangalik, the negative influences of Mars cancel out.

Effects of Mangal Dosha at various quarters

Mangal Dosha varies from quarter to quarter depending on the influence Mars has in that zone. Sometimes, the positive effects of one house can turn into negative effects in some other house. Keeping that in mind, let’s take a look at what each house has to offer.

When Mars is in the 1st house

The 1st house in a person’s horoscope deals with their married life. This means that if Mars is found in this house, the matrimonial life of the person is badly effective. There may be unnecessary conflicts of interest between spouses or partners, with the possibility of physical violence. All this leads to added pressure and distress, eventually ending in divorce or separation.

The only way to get out of this situation is to marry another Mangalik, as this way the negatives of both the partners in the marriage will cancel each other out, leaving them to enjoy their wedded bliss.

When Mars is in the 2nd house

This quarter is related to a person’s family life. This includes married life as well. Having the planet of Mars sitting in this house only throws lots of obstacles in a person’s family life. There tend to be more disagreements between them and the family, leading the Mangaliks to get alienated. They also don’t tend to gel well with the kids.

The family has to be very careful when dealing with a Mangalik family member. Keeping them calm and controlled is the key to being on their good side.

When Mars is in the 4th house

The professional front of a person’s life takes a huge hit if Mars is found in the 4th quarter of their horoscope. These kinds of Mangaliks tend to switch jobs more frequently, and can never stick to a particular job for too long. As a result, money becomes a huge problem for them and they suffer from regular financial problems.

They find it hard to maintain civil terms with their colleagues and bosses, especially when they do not agree with the terms and conditions applicable in their work space. It’s hard for these people to keep their opinion to themselves.

When Mars is in the 7th house

A person with Mars in their 7th house tends to have a very hot temper and highly egotistical nature. They are unable to maintain proper relationships with anyone, including their family, and tend to be on the bad side of people owing to their attitude. They also tend to be very domineering over their partners, and may also have a taste for multiple partners.

When Mars is in the 8th house

The 8th house brings about laziness in the Mangalik’s lifestyle. These people have no interest in doing anything meaningful with their life, and mostly just slack around. They also have an utter disregard for rules and regulations, and pay no respect to elders, thus alienating themselves from their parents and losing out on family property.

When Mars is in the 12th house

The 12th house brings in enemies for the Mangalik. It will be very hard for him/her to adjust with people, or make any sort of friends. In fact, their volatile nature will only gain them disrespect and hatred from people. This kind of isolation will lead them to mental problems as well as financial losses

Dealing with Mangal Dosha is very important to ensure a good and happy life. There are a number of methods to cure this condition, which can successfully remove problems from your life as if they never even existed. You just need the assistance of a good astrologer to help you out.
