How to recognise Kujadosha or Mangaldosha?

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

 

I have Kujadosha or Mangaldosha in my chart, which means I am

attracted to men who treat me badly... I was shocked because this is

true. If I ever want to find another husband, he should have

Kujadosha too in his chart. Is a mars placed in the 8th house in

capricorn the only way to have Kujadosha, or are there also other

placements that cause Kujadosha?

 

Greetings,

 

Anne

 

The description below is from an on-line vedic astrologist who did

my chart:

 

Mars in the Eighth House in Capricorn causes Kujadosha

(Mangaldosha): |

|Kujadosha, or Mars affliction, is an astrological condition which

negatively |

|affects a person's married life and domestic harmony. It is also

one of the |

|few astrological terms familiar to the Indian public. It occurs

when Mars is |

|in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house unless it is posited in a

sign |

|designated as an exception for that particular house. The reason

Kujadosha is |

|so well known in India is that nearly all parents there consult an

astrologer |

|before arranging a marriage for their child. This is done, to a

great extent, |

|in order to find out if the condition exists so they may take

measures to |

|neutralize the problem before it has a chance to create misery. The

effect of |

|Kujadosha is to cause the person to be somehow victimized in his

marriage. |

|This can, of course, occur in any number of ways, but ultimately

one is likely|

|to end up divorced and generally through no obvious fault of one's

own. The |

|person will also have to endure hardships in the marriage generated

by the |

|spouse. The way out of this problem is for a person with Kujadosha

to marry |

|another who also has it. A person with Kujadosha does not have the

nature to |

|victimize his spouse, and therefore if both partners have the

condition, its |

|effect is neutralized. This is a simple procedure in India, where,

until only |

|very recently, all marriages were arranged at an early age.

However, for |

|Westerners, Kujadosha presents a major obstacle because of the way

the |

|condition works in relation to our culture, where a person chooses

his own |

|spouse. The mechanics of Kujadosha are such that it causes a person

to be |

|attracted to a partner who by his very nature cannot blend or

function |

|compatibly for any great length of time with that person.

Therefore, one is |

|quite simply at the mercy of his fate. Yet perhaps the most

significant |

|problem is that a person with Kujadosha will not feel most of the

time much |

|physical attraction or any special chemistry for another who also

has the |

|condition. Therefore, even with the knowledge of this situation, a

Westerner |

|is destined for trouble unless he is wise or patient enough to find

a mate who|

|also has Kujadosha, even though the great excitement most people

seek may be |

|missing. Kujadosha (also known as Mangaldosha, since Mangal is

another name |

|for Mars) is a reliable astrological indicator and often reveals

which partner|

|out of a divorced couple was most put upon, deceived, or

betrayed.

Hi, Anne ...

 

 

As you can see, almost half the population of the world must have kujadosha!

I've read that the exception is when MA is exalted in Capricorn, and you

have that. There's probably some other thing that shows you're attracted to

guys who don't treat you well. I had the same problem till I was 30. I

think it has to do with low self esteem, in my case indicated by Saturn on

asc sq. Sun.

 

You have Saturn op. Sun and sq. Mars. Sun and Mars both being planets that

have to do with males.

 

I've know people with kd who had good marriages from an early age, so the

rule doesn't always work. Like a lot of things in Vedic, it's sort of

general and can be overcome by a generally good 7th hs.

Hi Dear Anne and Bettina,

 

There is a controversy over just about everything to do with Kujadosha ('The Blemish of Mars') and its cancellation, but I can give you my experience with my own chart. I haven't checked enough other charts and lives to see if this is the same experience with similar charts.

 

You have cancellation of Kuja Dosha Anne. As the PL programs says it, "As per astrological classics, the Mangala Dosha cannot be cancelled entirely, only its intensity can be reduced. Under special circumstances, Mangala Dosha is automatically nullified or reduced to a minimum."

 

PL will calculate charts for Mangala Dosha and then give the reasons and compatibility with another chart. To do this calculation you have to give it a second chart to compare it too, but of course can put in any chart to see the reasons for a person's specific reasons for cancellation in her/his chart. I like it as I'm still learning all the reasons for cancellation and it keeps giving them to me on each chart.

 

In Light on Life they write, "There is an alarming tendency among immature jyotishis to become unneccessarily alarmed when they discover this combination in a horoscope. Since half of all horoscopes that are counted from the lagna, half of those counted from the Moon, and half counted from Venus must possess this blemish, well over half the world's population must suffer from it. If Kuja Dosha could not be mitigated, its dire results, including the early death of the life partner, would occur in a substantial majority of the population, which is not the case. Exceptions to Kuja Dosha are therefore very important and in fact are so numerous that they could constitute a full chapter in themselves..."

 

There are also many who believe that the effects of Kuja Dosha are greatly reduced at specific ages. For a woman, I believe it is 33, for a man 29. (I've heard others say both male and female at 28 or 29.)

 

I married at 23 and had a horrendous marriage... other than giving me two children. The stories would curl anyone's hair on what all took place while I was trying to leave that marriage. I don't know what this man's chart would say for Kuja Dosha as I don't have his birth time. I divorced at 28.

 

At 33 I met my husband today. He also has the same conditions of Kuja Dosha and then a similar amount of cancellations of Kuja Dosha that I do. He was 29 when we met. (Interestingly the exact ages that I've been told for man and woman.) We married one year later and have had a fantastic marriage for over 18 years. It's also interesting what you've written regarding the attraction to men treating someone badly with this blemish. It was really at 33 when I "woke up" regarding who I was attracted to. I think also for my husband perhaps, as in his first marriage also his wife didn't treat him horribly, but really not particularly well either.

 

I didn't know Jyotish when my husband and I married, but I've heard that it's good to have a similar situation with Kuja Dosha with respect to the severity of it and then with the amount of cancellations as well, which we do have. So for my personal experience I have found that I did experience the effects of Kuja Dosha versus not having it at all with regards to my cancellations, and for me the age of the lessening of the effects did make some sense as this was my exact experience. There are some who argue that the age thing is not classic Jyotish, but in my particular experience this was very true.

 

Anne, as you have cancellation and are now 34 years old, it is interesting for you to become aware of this and should bring you to a different experience with who you are attracted to and also lessen any of the effects of Kuja Dosha in your life.

 

To answer your question below, in your chart, Mangala Dosha is formed due to the placement of Mars in the 8H. Since Jupiter is in the 5H in a Kendra from Mars, your Mangala Dosha gets cancelled. In birth chart Mars is in exaltation position, which is makes Mangala Dosha not harmful. (Another reason given for making this dosha not harmful is also Mars in own house in Navamsa chart.)

 

One of the reasons for cancellation of Mangala Dosha listed in PL is, "In the eighth house, if Mars is in Jupiter's sign - Sagittarius or Pisces or debilitated in Cancer or exalted in Capricorn, then Mangala Dosha does not occur. In other words, Mars in the eighth house for people born in Taurus, Gemini, Leo and Sagittarius ascendant are free from Mangala Dosha." So in your chart, Mangala Dosha should be considered to be cancelled.

 

Peace,

Patrice

Hello everyone,I have Kujadosha or Mangaldosha in my chart, which means I am attracted to men who treat me badly... I was shocked because this is true. If I ever want to find another husband, he should have Kujadosha too in his chart. Is a mars placed in the 8th house in capricorn the only way to have Kujadosha, or are there also other placements that cause Kujadosha?Greetings,Anne

Hi Dear Bettina and Anne,

 

Just read again in Light on Life regarding the age thing as they have written it:

 

"One tradition says that even the strongest Kuja Dosha is over and done with once the native reaches the age of thirty, because Mars reaches maturity at age twenty-eight and that any marital mischance which occurs after age thirty to someone whose horoscope shows a strong Kuja Dosha is probably due to other factors. Marriages contracted by such peole prior to age twenty-eight usually end unhappily, though they will not necessarily end prior to age twenty-eight."

 

My marital mischance ;-) ended unhappily to say the very least, 'nighmare-is would be more apt ;-)

 

Peace,

Patrice

Anne replies:

Yes that is true too! I was aware of my mars and saturn square

giving frictional relationships... Unfortunately there is not such a

good cure for a square.

Lord 7 is Jupiter, which brings a good partner. Hmm since my mars

Kujadosha has been canceled there is not much I can do, except try

to see the chart of my potential spouse and make a synastry or

composite to compare the aspects between us.

Anne replies:

The thing is that this blemish did attract me to " difficult men " and

still do, but maybe with mars in capricorn I am able to slay the

enemy and set boundaries, which are difficult, because there is my

square with saturn. I guess there is a kind of dynamics among the

cancellations, but also the debilitation of saturn. Saturn is the

lord of house 8, which is debilitated and mars is the lord of house

11, which is exalted. So the strength part is strong, but the

setting boundaries part is weak. Like the enemy who trespassed the

weak defended gate(saturn), but still has to be slayed by the mighty

knight (mars in capricorn). There will be blood shedding after

all.*sigh* Also the lovely princess (exalted venus) walks among the

fighters (venus square mars and opposite saturn). So no peace at the

end :-(

Anne replies:

So even with cancellations, finding a partner with also Kujadosha is

preferable? Because the understanding about previous bad relations

is mutual.

My lates bad relationship ended up about half a year ago. No he was

not abusive, but had just unrealistic expectations about me.

Anne replies:

Thanks for your advice. I will surely focus on this. Ofcourse after

my 30th I looked careful for a more reponsible man than I had

before. Maybe this is how I should translate it. I used to think

that it was me: my mars and conflicting saturn who brought me

trouble. So I merely blamed myself, even if there was no blame. Now

I know that is not necessarily the case.

 

Many thanks again for your explanation!

Dear Anne,

 

Thanks so much for including this description from the online astrologer. These parts that I've clipped below I hadn't ever heard this take on Kuja Dosha. I've often seen it written as dangerous for the mate of the native with Kuja Dosha, and how in cultures with arranged marriages this was, perhaps still is, difficult for a person with this to marry as this was/is not desirable in arranged marriages. But I've never seen this from this perspective of how the Kuja Dosha directly effects the native's life and that they can be victimized, that the native doesn't have the nature to victimize the spouse, etc.. and also the negative issues mentioned with attraction.

 

It's also interesting to see "...since Mangal is a reliable astrological indicator and often reveals which partner out of a divorced couple was most put upon, deceived, or betrayed."

 

Many thanks,

Patrice

Let's face it ... in ancient India people were probably much more likely to die young ... infectious diseases, women in childbirth, that sort of thing. So, kd may have had more meaning in that place at that time.

 

I think that one thing that a 7th hs. Mars might mean (I know that doesn't apply to Anne, who has 8th hs) is a spouse with a martian career. I have an acquaintance with M in 7 in Aquarius (don't have the chart in front of me, so don't know if there may be some cancellation of kd) who has a good marriage of many years duration. She is married to a fire fighter (actually a leutenant in a fire dept now, but began as a fighter).
