Why do you lose your temper even when you don't want to? Why does anger damage what you've built?
Uncontrolled Mangal in your kundali — especially Mangal Dosh — creates explosive anger, impulsive decisions, and conflict in relationships. This is not a character flaw; it's a planetary pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Mangal Dosh and afflicted Mangal?
Mangal Dosh specifically refers to Mars placed in the 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house from the Lagna, with no benefic joining or aspecting it — traditionally considered to create difficulties in marriage and partnerships. Afflicted Mangal is a broader term covering any malefic influence on Mars (aspect from Saturn, Rahu, Ketu) that reduces its positive expression. Mangal Dosh is a subset of afflicted Mangal specifically affecting the 7th house significations.
How many days should I chant Mangal mantra for results?
The traditional prescription is 108 repetitions daily for 40 consecutive days — this is the full cycle for Mangal shanti. For Mangal Dosh specifically, continuing for 7 years of Tuesdays is sometimes recommended in classical texts, though a 40-day concentrated cycle followed by weekly maintenance is the most practical approach.
Can unmarried people wear coral (moonga) to reduce Mangal Dosh?
Yes, coral can be worn before marriage as a preventive measure for Mangal Dosh. The classical guidance is to wear natural red coral set in copper on the ring finger of the right hand, energized on a Tuesday morning. However, since Mangal Dosh assessment is highly chart-specific (multiple cancellation conditions exist), consult an experienced Jyotishi before wearing any gemstone. Wearing an unindicated gemstone can amplify rather than reduce Mars energy.
