Manglik Dosha Consideration

MANGLIK DOSHA  is considered to be one of the major factors, which needs to be taken care of while matching the charts of a boy and girl. It can make or mar the relationship between prospective couples. Ione should know a few things about manglik dosha. One thing people should bear in mind is that they cannot depend on the computer generated compatibility table, which may be sometimes erroneous, especially when it comes to manglik dosha analysis. It is always advisable to seek the expert advice of a qualified astrologer. One cannot afford to reject a good match, based on computer software for match-making.

Mars is a fiery planet. It causes a dosha when mars is placed in 2, 4, 7, 8 or 12 house from lagna, rasi or venus in the natal chart. In that case it tends to burn the relationship between a husband and wife; causing rift, tensions and in some cases death of  spouse. In any case, I believe that a lot of importance should not be given to Mars alone. Rahu/Ketu and Saturn should also be judged while matching charts.  However, we should not forget that are a number of other things which should be ascertained to know the strength of the dosha.

1. No Dosha for Leo and Aquarius signs and/or Lagnas,
2. No Dosha when Mars is in 2nd house, in the signs of Gemini and Virgo,
3. No Dosha when Mars is in 4th house, in the signs of Aries and Scorpio,
4. No Dosha when Mars is in 7th house, in the signs of Cancer and Capricorn,
5. No Dosha when Mars is in 8th house, in the signs of Sagittarius and Pisces signs
6. No Dosha when Mars is in 12th house, in the signs of Taurus and Libra

Apart from what is mentioned above,  the following

1. Association of Mars with Jupiter and Saturn in certain cases cancels the dosha
2. Retrograde mars does not cause dosha.
3. A weak mars (e.g. combust, situated near rashi sandhi) loses ability to cause dosha.
4. Jupiter's aspect on Mars neutralizes the dosha, too.

When you consider all these things, we can safely say there are three types:

·                        Some are 100% manglik

·                        Some are 100% non-manglik ( No manglik dosha at all)

·                       Some are just 50% manglik (because of the cancellation of the dosha)

The kundli of a girl with 100% manglik dosha should be matched with a boy having 100% manglik doshaSimilarly the kundli of a girl with no dosha 100 should be matched with a boy who is non- manglik and a  girls with manglik dosha offset in her chart should be matched with the chart of a boy whose manglik dosh is also cancelled. In addition to the above, the position of other planets should also be taken into consideration.
