Important:This page does not automatically declare any defect in the horoscope. For the right decision, the exact position of the planets, Lagna, Bhavesh, Drishti, Varga Kundli and Dasha are necessary.
1What is this defect and how is it formed?

When Mars is from the ascendant or the Moon in the houses that are associated with marital, domestic happiness, closeness and bed-pleasure, then Manglik position is considered. Mere presence of Mars in one house is not the final conclusion. Confirmation of Rashi, Drishti, Conjunction, Saptamesh, Venus, Jupiter and D9 Navamsa is necessary.

The intensity of the defect is not determined by the zodiac sign or house alone. It is important to check the degree of the planet, Nakshatra, Shadbal/Digbal, distance of the conjunction, auspicious and malefic vision and the position of the respective Bhavesh.

2Potential impact in life

Traditionally signs of haste, anger, controlling tendencies, family tension or delay in marriage are seen. Auspicious and capable Mars can also give courage, wealth, technical ability and security; Therefore it is not always considered negative.

The results are considered to be more pronounced in the same area with which the respective house is associated. Nature and health in the first house, education and children in the fifth house, relationships in the seventh, career in the tenth and expenditure, sleep or foreign topics in the twelfth can be prominent.

3When can a defect be weakened or cancelled?

Mars being in its own house or exalted, aspect of auspicious planets, equal auspiciousness of both the sides, strong Saptamesh and favorable Navamsha can reduce the intensity of the defect. Take the actual decision considering the entire marriage and condition.

While looking at Yogabhang, importance is given to exalted, own house, friendly sign, square position, center-triangle relationship, aspect of auspicious planets and strong ascendant. Do not declare a breach merely from a list on the Internet.

4How to choose remedy as per horoscope?

Ascendant and first house:Grah yadi vyaktitva yaa svaasthya se seedhe juda ho to pahale dinacharya, sanyama aur surakshita mantra ko praathamikata den.

Fifth house:Add tutoring services, child support and mentor guidance to measures related to education, children and decisions.Seventh house:Communication, boundaries and marital counseling with Pooja are essential.Tenth house:Karma discipline, skill and ethical professional behavior become the main measures.

Position of the planet:The strategy to strengthen a weak executive auspicious planet and to pacify a painful executive inauspicious planet is different. Do not read Asta, Vakri, Neecha or exalted position separately from Dasha and Bhav Swamitra. In active Mahadasha-Antardasha related remedies can be given priority.

5Stepwise method of analysis

First Step:Check the accuracy of birth time and place, because Lagna, Bhava Chalit and Navamsha can change with a difference of a few minutes.Second step:Write the sign, degree, constellation, house and house-ownership of the planet creating the defect.third step:See actual partial distance and full/special view of the conjunction; Just being in the same sign does not equate to a close conjunction.

Fourth step:Confirm whether the same sign is repeating from the respective house lord, natural factor and appropriate square horoscope. D9 is considered useful for marriage, D7 for children and D10 for career.Fifth Step:See Mahadasha, Antardasha and current transit. One who is not active in Yoga Dasha may have less priority. In the end, choose a gentle solution by combining Yogabhang and the actual situation of the person.
