“Om Kraam Kreem Kraum Sah Bhaumaya Namah”
Reciting this mantra 108 times daily during Mars hora or on Tuesdays can gradually harmonize Mars’s influence over time.
3. Fasting on Tuesdays
Tuesday is dedicated to Mars. Observing a fast on this day, eating only once (preferably sattvic food without salt), and praying to Lord Hanuman, can help in reducing the negative impact of Mangal Dosha. It’s a simple yet powerful practice followed by many Manglik individuals with excellent results.
4. Donate Red Lentils and Red Clothes
Charity and selflessness please Mars. Donating red-colored items such as lentils, clothes, jaggery, or even red coral on Tuesdays brings relief from Manglik-related challenges. Giving to the poor with a sincere heart helps dissolve karmic blocks over time.
5. Worship Lord Hanuman
Lord Hanuman is considered the protector of the weak and the ultimate controller of Mars's energy. Reciting the Hanuman Chalisa daily or especially on Tuesdays energizes your aura, brings confidence, and reduces aggression that Manglik Dosha is known for.
6. Perform Mangal Shanti Pooja
This Vedic ritual, done under an astrologer’s guidance, is a potent remedy to appease Mars. Performing a Mangal Shanti Havan during an auspicious planetary transit can calm the aggressive tendencies of Mars and help attract positive relationships into your life.
7. Wear a Red Coral (Moonga) Gemstone
In specific cases (only when advised by your astrologer), wearing a Red Coral on the index finger of the right hand can help strengthen a benefic or neutral Mars. This should be done after proper analysis, as wearing coral with a poorly placed Mars can worsen its effects. Always get your birth chart analyzed thoroughly first.
Astrological Matching: A Key Step in Managing Manglik Dosha
In Indian tradition, Kundli matching or horoscope compatibility is a vital step in marriage planning. When Manglik Dosha is present in one or both charts, a deeper analysis helps us understand the compatibility level. If both partners are Manglik to a similar degree, it's often considered a balancing factor.
If one partner has a severe Manglik Dosha and the other doesn’t, we look for planetary protection in the non-Manglik’s chart—such as a strong Jupiter or Venus aspecting the 7th house. This can help absorb and reduce the dosha’s intensity.
Case Studies: Real-Life Examples
Case 1: Riya's Delayed Engagement
Riya, a 28-year-old teacher, had Manglik Dosha from the 7th house. Her engagements were repeatedly breaking at the last minute. On analysis, we saw that Mars was placed in her 7th house but aspected by Jupiter. She performed a Kumbh Vivah and began reciting Mangal mantra daily. Within a year, she met her husband—who had moon placement in the 7th house and thus brought emotional balance to the marriage. Today, they are happily settled with two children.
Case 2: Raj’s Temper Issues in Marriage
Raj came to me after two years of marriage, struggling with frequent arguments. His horoscope had Manglik Dosha from the 8th house and Mars was conjunct Ketu. He wasn’t practicing any remedies. We began with weekly Hanuman Chalisa recitations and Mars pacification havans. Over the next few months, both his attitude and relationship dynamics improved significantly. His wife later told me she saw a ‘new man’ in him.
Final Thoughts
Manglik Dosha is not a punishment—it’s a call for spiritual tuning and inner balance. Mars represents energy, protection, and drive. When misaligned, it can cause friction, especially in relationships. But when harmonized, it can bring stability, strength, and passion to marriage.
Every individual will experience the impact of Manglik Dosha differently. Some may only need minor remedies, while others might benefit from deeper astrological rituals. The key is to understand your birth chart holistically and approach this journey with patience and faith.
Marriage is one of the most sacred unions in life. If you or your loved one has Manglik Dosha, please don’t panic. With the right mindset and astrological guidance, peace and companionship are very much within your reach.
Stay sincere, stay hopeful, and align your stars with devotion.
