Mangal Dosh Calculator

Mangal dosh (manglik dosha) is traditionally said to be present when Mars sits in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house of the kundli. This calculator checks Mars's position both from the Lagna and from the Moon, based on your birth details.

Use 12:00 if you don't know it (Lagna may then be wrong).

India = 5.5. Change only if you were born outside India.

Rule used

Mars in house 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 or 12 counted from the Lagna → Mangal dosh from Lagna.
The same houses counted from the Moon's sign → Mangal dosh from Moon (Chandra kundli).

Some traditions use only houses 1, 4, 7, 8 and 12 (leaving out the 2nd), and many list situations where the dosh is considered cancelled, such as both partners being manglik.

Astrology is a traditional belief system, not a science. Use these results for cultural and personal interest, and consult a qualified astrologer before important decisions.
