Mangal Dosha (Manglik) Calculator
Check whether Mars places you in the Manglik category — and what it really means.
Checked from the Moon (date is enough); birth time adds the Lagna check.
A Flag, Not a Verdict
Mangal Dosha gets more fear than it deserves. Mars in a marriage-sensitive house asks for a closer look, but classical astrology is full of cancellations that neutralise it, and matching two Manglik charts is a time-honoured resolution. Use this to know where you stand, then read the whole chart before letting a single word decide anything as important as marriage.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Mangal Dosha (being Manglik)?
Mangal Dosha, or being Manglik, is when Mars occupies the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house — houses tied to marriage, home and longevity. Mars is fiery and assertive, so classical texts flag these placements as needing care in matching, especially around the 7th and 8th houses of marriage.
Is being Manglik really a problem for marriage?
It is a caution, not a curse. A great many Manglik placements are cancelled by chart conditions — Mars in its own or exalted sign, aspects from benefics, or both partners being Manglik, which neutralises it. Reputable astrologers treat a Manglik flag as a prompt to look closer, never a verdict.
How is Mangal Dosha calculated here?
This tool checks Mars's house counted from your Moon, which needs only your date of birth. A full assessment also checks from the Lagna (ascendant) and the Venus position, which is why your birth time sharpens the result.
What cancels Mangal Dosha?
Common cancellations (Mangal Dosha bhanga) include Mars in Aries, Scorpio, Capricorn, Cancer or Leo depending on house, benefic aspects on Mars, Mars with Jupiter or the Moon, and both partners carrying the dosha. A reading checks these before drawing any conclusion.
