Manglik Dosha in Males vs Females

Manglik Dosha is considered one of the hazardous dosha in Vedic Astrology. This is a permanent dosha that starts right from our birth and continues until death. The people with manglik dosha cannot marry a non-manglik otherwise there could be chances that the marriage could fall apart or one or both partners can get in serious troubles, sometimes this can cost life. So, what exactly is Manglik dosha and how they affect males and females is what we are going to cover in this blog.

What is Manglik Dosha?

In Vedic Astrology, Dosha can be understood as a condition. So, the condition in which Mangal (Mars) gets involved in some houses of an individuals’ birth chart is known as Manglik Dosha. 
 

Right at the time when a person is born, is considered very important in determining what zodiac the person is going to have. And by coincidence if mars comes into the zodiac, the person is said to have Manglik Dosha. 
 

The planet Mars is considered as the god of war in vedic astrology, which also remains unmarried. Therefore, whoever has this condition or Dosha will also have to be unmarried for his lifetime otherwise, there could be problems.

Effects of Manglik Dosha

Manglik dosha or Mangal Dosha occurs when Mars comes in a 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th and 12th house of a person’s birth chart. This astrological condition affects a person's marriage and relationship. Here are some key effects when mars in in specific house: 
 

Mars in First and Second House: Mars in First and Second house of person’s birth chart indicates that the person is energetic, values his opinions over others, wealthy, well-spoken and is dominating in nature. This nature can lead to difficulties in marriage. 
 

Mars in Fourth House: When a person has Mars in his fourth house, chances are that he may face financial difficulties. He would face disappointments in any work that gives wealth. This can trouble their marriage life after all. 
 

Mars in Seventh House: The person will be aggressive and short-tempered. He may be unable to maintain a relationship with his/her partner or other family member.
