A birth chart of a person has 12 houses. The word ‘Manglik’ refers to someone who is born under the influence of Mars and the word ‘Dosh’ refers to the defect or unfavourable circumstances that can cause problems in the life.

The Mars, being an aggressive planet causes ‘Mangal Dosh, and is featured as commanding one, dominating in relationship, easily makes enemies, holds fighting behaviour, remains full of anger.

In the marital life it causes separation and dissatisfaction therefore, it plays very prominent role. If the planet Mars is placed in the 12th house, 1st house, 4th house, 7th house or 8th house from Lagna, then it forms Mangal Dosha in one’s Birth Chart.

Mangal Dosha is seen through the Lagna Chart, Moon Sign Chart and Venus Chart. If Mars occupies above houses in one’s natal chart, then it will be considered as ‘High Manglik Dosha’.

If it is occupying these houses in any one of these charts, then it will be considered as ‘Low Manglik Dosha’.
