How to Overcome Manglik Dosh!

Mangal Dosha is still one of the most dreaded dosh in astrology. Even people who are laymen in the Vedic knowledge have heard of this dosha.
This dosha is also known as Kuja Dosha or Bhom Dosha. It occurs when Mars is in the 1st, 4th, 7th and 8th house from Lagna (and also the 5th and 2nd houses according to South India form of astrology) in a person’s birth chart. The person who has mangal dosh is called Manglik.
Since this dosha is calculated from the Moon, Venus and Lagna; there are different kinds of this dosha. Lagna represents the physical attributes, moon denotes mental outlook and Venus denotes the sensual aspect of the person. Astrologically, when caused by lagna – dosha is low, when caused by the moon – it is stronger and when caused by Venus, it is highest.
However, when Mars in one’s birth chart is aspected by benefic planets like Jupiter and Venus, the effects of Mars get cancelled. Indeed, Mars is a cruel and malefic planet. It is male and aggressive. The red planet is a planet of war, rules attributes like courage, and temperament and is malefic in nature.
