The Curse of Dosha in a Horoscope
1 min read
The myth - We have been made to believe that any dosha/bad yoga in a kundli is the curse of Doom. For example, a Mangalik dosha will always give bad married life ; Kaal sarpa dosha will bring only failures!
The fact - Such doshas are just a name given to some specific planetary placements in a person's horoscope. All that they do is give very general indications in a specific area of life. For more comprehensive analysis, a number of principles need to be taken into consideration. Such doshas are only a small contributing factor in the whole analysis.
For example, for marriage purposes, we must analyse - the house of marriage, the lord of that house, Venus, Jupiter and several other factors. Position of Mars in the horoscope giving indication on whether the person is Mangalik or not is only one of the factors in the above analysis. Hence, declaring Doom in marriage only on the basis of a person being Mangalik or not is biased and incorrect.
