Abstract
Mars Dosha, commonly known as Manglik Dosha or Kuja Dosha, occupies an important place in the study of Vedic Astrology. It is considered one of the most discussed astrological combinations affecting marriage, relationships, domestic harmony, and emotional compatibility. According to classical Vedic texts, the placement of Mars in specific houses of the natal horoscope creates energetic imbalances that may influence marital life. The aggressive, fiery, and forceful nature of Mars can create tension, impulsiveness, misunderstandings, conflicts, and delays in marriage if not harmoniously balanced.This journal explores the concept of Mars Dosha in detail from the perspective of Vedic Astrology. It discusses the astronomical and astrological significance of Mars, the houses responsible for the formation of Mars Dosha, the classical interpretations, psychological implications, effects on marital harmony, cancellation conditions, remedies, and modern interpretations. The study also highlights how Mars Dosha should not be interpreted with fear but with astrological wisdom, balance, and proper guidance.
