Exceptions to Kuja Dosha (Mangal Dosha)/ Cancellation of Kuja Dosha

Mars or Mangal Dosha, Kuja Dosha, also known as Manglik is often identified by by the presence of Mars in the first, second, fourth, seventh, eighth or twelfth house from  Lagna (Ascendant), Moon or Venus in the birth chart. It ruins the harmony in the marriage.Since Mars (Mangala grah) produces Mangala Dosha in six houses, it is apparent that a large number of people may be Manglik. Of these, some will be severely Mangalika or Mangleek. However, there are many beneficial planetary combinations, which can completely nullify the negative effect of Mangala Dosh . Here we provide a list of these Vedic Astrology planetary combinations which remove Mangal dosha:

1. Should Mars occupy the 4th, or the 7th identical with Aries, Cancer, Scorpio or Capri­corn, Kuja Dosha does not arise. It is a benefic position.

2. Should Mars occupy the 1st, the 2nd, the 4th, the 7th, the 8th or the 12th but is conjoined with the Moon, Jupiter or Mercury, the dosha does not arise. When aspected by them, one should not think of harm.

3. Mars may be in any of the above houses from Lagna, the Moon or Venus but if he is in Aries or Scorpio, own sign, no dosha arises.

4. Mars in a Venusian sign cannot do harm If he is in the 4th or the 7th.
