India, a culture more than a country with a number of beliefs and superstitions. While some beliefs have roots with scientific reasons and explanations, however, can be considered as rootless to some extent. Let us take an example, I am sure everybody has definitely heard about the Manglik dosh, a dosh that cannot be seen but can only be felt. For example, if a woman who is Manglik marries a non Manglik man then the spouse will die within the short span of time after marriage. Means as per the astrology, God’s planning for this person will fail because he is going to die at an early age.
This is a crazy but bizarre culture in India and this is the reason everyone seeks astrological consultancy for marriage. Moreover, many men and women are worried because they cannot marry to anyone who does not have the manglik dosh. Delay in marriage haunts most of the people. As per the Vedic astrology, this dosh is considered as the serious astrological drawback for marriage. It can affect person’s whole life and may bring misfortune after marriage. And misfortune is the reason, not death that people are afraid of marrying a person with maglik dosh. It is also known as Bhom dosh, kuja dosh, and Angrakha dosh.
How to find Manglik Dosh in Kundli?
At the time of birth of a person, every planet has a different location is a galaxy and the location of these planets defines our future or present and our karma. As per the astrology, when the planet Mars or Mangal is placed in the 12th, 8th, 4th, 7th, 2nd, and 1st house of the person’s birth chart then it is mangal dosh. Means placement of Mars planet in these 6 houses out of 12 houses can cause this dosh. Some astrologers also suggest that if planet Mars is present in the 2nd house of the birth chart then this is partial dosh. Almost 50% of the people have this dosh in their birth chart.
The recent case was seen in Aishwarya Rai’s marriage with Abhishek Bachchan, both are Bollywood actors. In this case, the actress has to get married to the tree (Lucky Fella) before getting married to her fiancé Abhishek Bachchan to overcome the Magal Dosh’s ill effect.
Misconceptions of Mangal Dosh
A person is Manglik if there is a negative effect of Mars planet on their horoscope. This influence is more when talking about marriage because it is a most important aspect to consider at the time of matching the birth chart. A person’s birth chart should be checked before finalizing the marriage because it has various misconceptions related to it. The biggest fear is the death of a spouse if a partner is suffering from Manglik dosh. However, it does not happen in every case, it happens due to the influence of other planets. If Mars planet is present in its own house then there is no manglik dosh and if 9th house is strong then the effect of planet mars placed in the 8th and 7th house is canceled.
