मांगलिक दोष (जिसे मंगल दोष, कुज दोष, भौम दोष भी कहते हैं) उत्तर भारतीय विवाह मिलान में सबसे अधिक विश्लेषित कारकों में से एक है। यह विशेष भावों में मंगल की स्थिति को संदर्भित करता है।

लग्न से मंगल की स्थिति। सबसे महत्वपूर्ण और व्यापक रूप से उपयोग किया जाता है।
Mars position from Moon sign. Represents emotional and mental effects on marriage.
चंद्र राशि से मंगल की स्थिति। विवाह पर भावनात्मक प्रभाव।
Mars position from Venus. Venus represents love and romance. Used for detailed analysis.
शुक्र से मंगल की स्थिति। प्रेम और रोमांस पर प्रभाव।

Recite Hanuman Chalisa on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Observe fast on Tuesdays and donate red items (lentils, cloth).
