Who is a Manglik person?

We already know a Manglik person is a reference given to anyone having some sort of Manglik effects in their kundli chart/birth chart and they are called a Manglik individual. Some practitioners and experts of Indian astrology also divide the reference to a Manglik person as Anshik Manglik and Purna Manglik.

Anshik Manglik

Means having an Ansh of Mangal dosha or having a part of Mangal dosha (partially Manglik).

Purna Manglik

Means having a full-blown Mangal dosha.

Basically, this name reference is the way to say or denote the influence of Mangal dosha on the birth chart of the person.

The Mangal dosha or Kuja dosha can be seen from three different points of view. It is seen from the Ascendant of Kundli chart, from the Moon (Moon chart) and from Venus as well. The dosha seen from Ascendant is the most important of all of them.

Ascendant is important being the indicator of our physical existence. Moon is important as it rules the mind and mental peace, which is very important in marital life. Venus rules the Married life and Bhog of life in General – meaning it also rules the enjoyment of family life and harmony of family life.

Ascendant has more emphasis since it shapes our physical and natural personality.

There is another less known form called Double Manglik. While even we are not certain about what it preaches. But Double Manglik must likely be about when there is a strong Mangal dosha from two or more points of view, the Venus, Moon and Ascendant. But if it means like that, the questions arise? Aren’t the Purna Manglik and Double Manglik the same? Whatever may be the case, we know that Purna Manglik and Double Manglik are both the full-blown versions of Mangal dosha in anyone’s Natal chart (Birth chart). Whereas the Anshik Manglik can be considered as less capable or only partially capable in effects.

What does Mangal dosha mean?

When an Indian astrologer says you that you have a Mangal dosha in your kundli chart or you are a Manglik – That means the planet Mars is somehow acting harmfully in your horoscope for the marriage related things like getting married on time and married life after marriage.

How does Mangal dosha occur?

Whenever Mars is placed in the 1st house, 2nd house, 4th house, 7th house, 8th house or 12th house from Lagna or Moon it causes the Mangal dosha in general. But that Mars needs to be potentially very harmful in the kundli chart and other things like the 7th house, the 7th house lord and the 7th house Karaka must be not very strong for this Mangal dosha to be very functional and powerful.
