Do you have Mangal dosha?
Mangal dosha (Kuja dosha, being "Manglik") is read from where Mars falls: in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house from the lagna, with the Moon and Venus as second references. Enter your birth details to see all three, and the conditions the texts read as easing it.
It is one factor in matching, not a verdict. HeyKundli shows the working and never sells a remedy.
Questions
What is Mangal dosha?
Mars placed in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house from the lagna. Classical matching reads it as Mars's energy falling on home, family or partnership.
How common is it?
Very: six of the twelve houses count, so about half of all charts show it from the lagna, and more when the Moon and Venus are counted too.
Can Mangal dosha be cancelled?
The texts list conditions read as easing it: Mars in its own sign (Aries, Scorpio) or exalted (Capricorn), Mars with or aspected by Jupiter, and both partners having it. Scholars differ on how far each one cancels it.
Should a Manglik marry only a Manglik?
It is a common custom, because the dosha is read as balanced when both have it. Most astrologers weigh it with the rest of both charts rather than on its own.
