Manglik Dosha result
Assessment from each reference point
House counts use the selected whole-sign rule profile.
This version does not determine Mangal Dosha cancellation or mitigation. Those rules vary by tradition and require additional chart interpretation. No cancellation is assumed in the result above.
What is Manglik Dosha?
Manglik Dosha, also called Mangal Dosha or Kuja Dosha, is a concept in some traditions of Vedic astrology. It is commonly assessed by checking Mars in specified houses counted from a birth-chart reference point. Traditions differ on which houses count and whether the assessment should be considered from Lagna, Moon, Venus, or a combination.
How does this calculator work?
The calculator derives planetary positions for the entered birth instant, applies a Lahiri-style sidereal correction, estimates the ascendant from the birth time and coordinates, then counts whole-sign houses from Lagna, Moon and Venus. It reports the selected rule set transparently and does not assign a severity percentage.
Why are the birth time and birthplace important?
The ascendant changes with time and location. Local clock rules can also change by date, including daylight-saving transitions. The calculator uses the selected place's IANA time zone to resolve the local birth time into an instant. If a time is skipped or repeated during a clock change, it asks for clarification instead of silently guessing.
How should I interpret the result?
A result means only that Mars falls, or does not fall, in the specified houses under the selected calculation method. It is not a verdict about a person's character, marriage, or compatibility. Astrology-based relationship predictions are not scientifically established; use the result as cultural information, not as a substitute for personal judgment.
Frequently asked questions
Which houses are checked?
The standard profile checks houses 1, 4, 7, 8 and 12. The expanded profile also includes house 2. Both profiles assess Mars from Lagna, Moon and Venus separately.
Does this calculator check cancellation rules?
No. Cancellation or mitigation rules differ across schools and can depend on other chart factors. This tool reports the primary house-rule assessment only and does not assume cancellation.
Can I calculate for a birthplace outside India?
Yes. Search for a city anywhere in the world or enter its decimal latitude, longitude and IANA time zone manually. Check the selected time zone carefully when the location is close to a time-zone border.
What if I do not know the birth time?
The ascendant and a complete Lagna-based result cannot be calculated reliably without the birth time. This version will not invent a time or publish an incomplete chart as a complete Manglik assessment.
Will a Manglik result predict marriage problems?
No. The calculator does not predict divorce, marriage failure, or relationship outcomes. These are traditional beliefs, not scientifically established predictions.
