Mangal Dosha (Kuja / Manglik) arises when Mars occupies certain Lagna houses — typically the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th. Daanyam checks Mars with Swiss Ephemeris whole-sign houses, applies classical cancellation rules, and shows effective severity for marriage context.

Mangal Dosha Calculator — Checks Mars placement from Lagna and Chandra Lagna, then applies traditional cancellation rules.
In kundli matching, Mangal Dosha is one of the first compatibility checks families review before a marriage is fixed. A Manglik person is traditionally matched with another Manglik so the Mars energy balances on both sides; when only one partner carries the dosha, classical Jyotish weighs severity, cancellation rules, and the strength of the 7th house before advising — it is the placement, not the label alone, that decides whether the union is affected.
Mangal Dosha matters most when Mars occupies the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house from Lagna or the Moon without a classical cancellation. Once you know your own Manglik verdict, the next step is to see how your chart pairs with a partner's through the 36-point Ashtakoota Guna Milan.

How Daanyam computes this
Daanyam computes Mangal Dosha with Swiss Ephemeris (professional-grade ephemeris), Lahiri ayanāṃśa, and whole-sign houses where applicable — serving 10,000+ charts daily with ~95% agreement vs classical table checks in our audits. Classical framing draws on Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, Phaladeepika, Jataka Parijata. See how we compute →
Mangal Dosha (Kuja Dosha) arises when Mars occupies the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house from Lagna (and often from the Moon). Families traditionally review it before marriage alongside Ashtakoota matching.
Yes. Classical texts list cancellations — for example both partners Manglik, Mars in own/exalted sign, or certain benefic aspects. Daanyam shows effective severity after these rules; a qualified Jyotishi should confirm marriage decisions.
Yes for a reliable house placement. Mars house depends on Lagna, which moves about every two hours. Approximate times make Manglik status less trustworthy.
