What is Mangal Dosha? ▾
Mangal Dosha (also called Kuja Dosha or Chevvai Dosham) occurs when Mars is placed in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house of the birth chart. It is believed to cause friction, delay or challenges in marriage and relationships.
Can Mangal Dosha be cancelled? ▾
Yes. Mangal Dosha is cancelled when Mars is exalted (Capricorn), in its own sign (Aries or Scorpio), aspected by Jupiter, or conjunct a benefic planet. Our calculator checks all cancellation conditions automatically.
Should I marry someone with Mangal Dosha? ▾
If both partners have Mangal Dosha, the doshas cancel each other — this is considered auspicious in traditional astrology. Our compatibility tool checks this automatically.
What is the remedy for Mangal Dosha? ▾
Common remedies include Mangal Puja on Tuesdays, chanting Om Angarakaya Namaha 108 times, wearing red coral (after consulting a Jyotishi), and observing Tuesday fasts. Marrying on a strong Muhurta also helps.
Is Mangal Dosha in 7th house the most serious? ▾
The 7th house is the primary house of marriage, so Mars here is considered most significant for relationship compatibility. However, with the right partner matching and cancellation conditions, it is manageable.
