Mars is astrology is the ruler of Aries and Scorpio zodiac signs. Now, as per your birth chart, in whichever house Aries or Scorpio sits, Mars becomes the lord of that house/houses. So for example, if the Aries sign was in the 12th house of your Kundli at the time of your birth, then Mars becomes the Lord of the 12th house for you. But now how do we know whether the planet Mars is Malefic or benefic in the 12th house? Mainly, there are two ways to find out the same.

So whenever in your lifetime Mars will pass through these houses, it may bring some trouble for you. So what house is best for Mars in astrology? As per astrologers, Mars give good results in the 3rd, 4th, 10th and 11th house.

The second way to find whether Mars is good or bad for you is to find the planet it conjuncts with in your Kundli. For example, Sun is the friendly planet of Mars. So if Mars conjuncts with the Sun in any of the houses of your Kundli, then Mars will try to modify the characteristics of that house (example, finance, love, etc.) positively. On the other hand, if Mars is in conjunction with an enemy planet such as Mercury, then it is considered malefic.
The same is for zodiac signs. If Mars is with a friendly zodiac sign – Capricorn – it exalts, but when with an enemy zodiac sign – Cancer – it debilitates. There are many more ways to check whether Mars is positive or negative in your chart, but for now, these shall work.

One dosha in astrology that scares many is the Manglik dosh. A Manglik dosh is formed in Kundli when Mars is in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house.

The placement of Mars in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house in Kundli causes Mangal Dosha. As per our astrologer, Mangal dosh can last for a lifetime. However, usually, that’s not the case. Mangal dosh can surely last forever, but its intensity weakens after a point in time, which is one’s cross 28 years of age. However, as the 20s is an important time period for our career, relationship, marriage, etc., a weak Mars in your 20s would do enough damage to spoil your 30s too. Hence must be kept in check by tracking Mars movement in the horoscope.

We have explained this whole topic in THIS blog. For a gist, first of all, many people who think they are Manglik are actually not Manglik. All they are lacking is an astrologer who could read their Kundli precisely; and tell them the same.
In addition, the marriage age for both sexes nowadays has increased. People usually choose to get married after they turn 28. And like we have mentioned above, after 28 years of age, the potency of the Manglik effect, if any, gets neutralized. In fact Saturn, Rahu and Ketu are the planets that you must be more concerned about after you are over 28 years of age. In case you are Manglik and wish to marry your lover, just wait till you turn 29 or do some remedies suggested by an astrologer to neutralise the Manglik effect.
