Formula & methodology

Formula: Manglik = Mars occupying house 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 or 12 counted from lagna (also checked from Moon and Venus)

  1. Enter birth date, time and place.
  2. The calculator computes sidereal Mars and the lagna, Moon and Venus positions.
  3. Mars’s house is counted from all three reference points; 1/2/4/7/8/12 flags the dosha.
  4. A severity grade summarises how many references are afflicted.

Worked example — 1 Jan 1990, 06:00, Delhi: Mars in Vrishchika sits in the 1st house from lagna (Manglik) but the 10th from Moon and 11th from Venus — severity “Low/partial”: a single-reference Manglik in Mars’s own sign, which classical rules largely cancel.

Frequently asked questions

What is Mangal (Manglik) dosha?
A flag raised when Mars occupies house 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 or 12 from the lagna (and, in stricter analysis, from the Moon and Venus). Mars’s heat in these marriage-touching houses is traditionally linked to friction in married life — hence the matching-time concern.
Is Manglik dosha really cancelled in many charts?
Yes — classical texts list numerous cancellations: Mars in its own or exaltation sign (Aries, Scorpio, Capricorn), Mars aspected by Jupiter, specific sign-house pairs, and both partners sharing the dosha. A large fraction of “Manglik” results soften to negligible after these checks.
Are there degrees of Manglik?
Practitioners grade by reference points (lagna only = mild; lagna + Moon + Venus = strong), by house (7th and 8th weigh most), and by Mars’s dignity. This calculator’s severity field encodes the reference-point count; a jyotishi adds the dignity layer.
Can a Manglik marry a non-Manglik?
Tradition prefers Manglik–Manglik pairing (mutual cancellation) but does not forbid mixed matches: it asks for compensating strengths — a strong 7th house, benefic aspects, good Guna Milan elsewhere — or customary remedies. Regional practice varies widely; treat the flag as a discussion point.
Do remedies like Kumbh Vivah have scriptural standing?
Kumbh/Vishnu Vivah, Mangal shanti puja, fasting on Tuesdays and Hanuman worship are established customary remedies, though their form is regional rather than uniform scripture. Families that observe them treat the dosha as addressed — the practical effect is peace of mind on both sides.
