In this article we present what Manglik Dosha is and the effects it can bring to our lives, especially in marriage. Read on to find out what it is about and what you can do to fix it.
Manglik Dosha: Mars
Mars is a red planet and the red shading symbolizes animosity, anger, and virility. Mars rules temperance, certainty, enthusiasm, assurance, aspiration, and comfort. It urges us to face challenges and be our best. Affirmation and a challenging, fearless nature satisfy this planet.
Mars, the god of war, is the leader of Aries. In astrology, Mars is the planet of vitality, activity, and desire. It is the sense of survival, and can be seen as the “remaining” creature nature of man. Mars in the ascendant makes a man look young. It controls enthusiasm and shows a strong and wild sex drive.
Mars plays a very important role in India regarding marriage because before arranging marriages, the parents have the astral charts of the possible couple made, fearing the effect of this planet on their union since according to the belief its position will determine if such marriage will be happy or will end in disgrace.
What is Manglik Dosha?
As we indicated earlier, Mars is a planet that represents energy and drive. When Mars influences positions that represent our emotions, family life, partners and love, they give a negative result, and this negative influence is called Manglik Dosha.
Manglik Dosha occurs when Mars is located in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th and 12th house from the Ascendant, but also from the Moon.
Its results give an argumentative tendency, excessive independence, recklessness and even aggressiveness to our relationships.
Trouble
It cannot only bring trouble in married life, but also create disruptions in marriages. If it is not resolved, it can change the life of marriage to a conflict zone, and both husband and wife can experience horrible problems, even death. In addition to this, opposite effects can also be observed in education, the beginning of the profession, business, among others.
Couple, jealousy, possessiveness and acting as if one is over the other are caused by the position of Mars in certain houses or “areas” of a birth chart. In addition, if Mars is negatively affected by the sign it is in or by some other planet, it can also cause explosive fights and even violence.
What is a Manglik?
A person with Manglik Dosha is called Manglik and must necessarily relate to another person who is also Manglik in order to lessen the effect of Mars and achieve success in love life.
How do I know if I or my partner is Manglik?
You must first turn to an expert, who will make an astral chart to determine if Mars is in it and in which house it is exactly.
