Check for various doshas in your birth chart
Fill in the information below to get your Dosh analysis
Dosh in Vedic astrology refers to planetary afflictions or unfavorable placements in your birth chart that can create obstacles, challenges, or negative patterns in specific life areas. Unlike beneficial yoga formations, doshas represent weakened or conflicting planetary energies that require attention and remedial measures. The severity and impact of a dosh depend on the planets involved, their house positions, aspects, and the overall strength of the chart. Understanding these doshas empowers you to navigate challenges more effectively and take appropriate corrective actions through astrological remedies.
Three major doshas are analyzed here: Mangal Dosh (also called Manglik Dosh) occurs when Mars is placed in certain houses from the Ascendant or Moon, traditionally believed to affect marriage compatibility and relationships. Kaalsarp Dosh is formed when all planets are positioned between Rahu and Ketu (the lunar nodes), creating a karmic imbalance requiring spiritual growth and dedicated practice. Pitra Dosh, or ancestral debt, arises from unfulfilled obligations from past lives or improper ancestor veneration, manifesting as family problems, health issues, or career obstacles. Each dosh has specific symptoms, remedies, and cancellation factors that can mitigate their effects.
Affects marriage and relationships. Mars in 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house from Lagna or Moon creates this dosh. Can be cancelled by various astrological factors and yoga formations that strengthen the chart.
Formed when all planets lie between Rahu and Ketu. Creates karmic challenges and delays. Severity depends on which houses contain the nodes and planetary distribution patterns within the sandwich.
Related to ancestral karma and past-life debts. Caused by Sun-Saturn combination or specific planetary placements. Remedies focus on spiritual practices, charity, and ancestor veneration for resolution.
Good news: Most doshas can be significantly mitigated or entirely cancelled through specific astrological remedies such as wearing gemstones, performing pujas, chanting mantras, charitable acts, and spiritual practices.
