Why Your Love Marriage Is Facing Hurdles? Top 5 Kundali Doshas That Could Be the Reason
Love marriages in India often face double challenges — one from society and another from the planets.
In Vedic astrology, certain planetary positions in your birth chart (Janam Kundali) create doshas (flaws) that delay or complicate love marriage.
Even if your relationship is strong, these astrological combinations can lead to misunderstandings, family opposition, or sudden breakups.
Let’s explore the top 5 Kundali doshas that could be affecting your love life and how to overcome them.
1. Mangal Dosha (Manglik Dosh)
The Problem:
When Mars (Mangal) is placed in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house, it creates Mangal Dosha. Mars is a fiery planet, and its malefic placement can cause aggression, ego clashes, and emotional distance in relationships.
Common Signs in Love Marriage Cases:
- Repeated arguments without clear reason
- Delay in marriage despite readiness
- Breakups just before engagement/wedding
Remedies:
- Chant “ॐ क्रां क्रीं क्रौं सः भौमाय नमः” 108 times daily
- Perform Mangal Shanti Pooja on a Tuesday
- Donate red clothes or red masoor dal to the needy on Tuesdays
2. Shani Dosha (Saturn Affliction)
The Problem:
Saturn (Shani Dev) represents discipline and delays. When it aspects the 7th house or Venus (Shukra), it can cause postponements, long-distance relationships, or commitment issues.
Common Signs:
- Long-term relationships with no marriage decision
- Partner showing lack of seriousness or repeated postponements
- Emotional distance due to career or location
Remedies:
- Chant “ॐ शं शनैश्चराय नमः” in the morning (preferably during Shani Hora, Saturday 9:30 AM–10:30 AM IST)
- Light a mustard oil diya beneath a Peepal tree every Saturday.
- Donate black sesame (til) and black cloth
3. Rahu-Ketu Dosha (Shadow Planet Affliction)
The Problem:
Rahu and Ketu create illusion and confusion. Their malefic placement in the 5th, 7th, or 8th house often brings sudden breakups, hidden secrets, or family disapproval.
Common Signs:
- Relationship secrecy leading to trust issues
- Sudden change in partner’s behavior
- Misunderstandings due to gossip or third-party influence
Remedies:
- Chant “ॐ राहवे नमः” and “ॐ केतवे नमः” 108 times
- Offer coconut in running water on Saturdays
- Wear a Gomed (for Rahu) or Lehsunia (for Ketu) only after seeking guidance from a qualified astrologer.
4. Venus Affliction (Shukra Dosha)
The Problem:
Venus governs love, beauty, and relationships. If Venus is debilitated, combust, or conjunct with malefic planets, it can cause loss of attraction, lack of harmony, or financial disagreements in love marriage.
Common Signs:
- Relationship turning dull after initial spark
- Disagreements about lifestyle or expenses
- Lack of romantic bonding despite being together
Remedies:
- Chant “ॐ शुक्राय नमः” 108 times on Fridays
- Offer white flowers to Goddess Lakshmi
- Donate rice, milk, or white clothes on Fridays
5. Kal Sarp Dosha
The Problem:
When all planets are positioned between Rahu and Ketu, Kal Sarp Dosha is formed. This powerful dosha can cause emotional instability, delays, and repeated heartbreaks in love life.
Common Signs:
- Relationships ending abruptly without closure
- Strong love bond but constant obstacles to marriage
- Feeling unlucky in relationships despite efforts
Remedies:
- Perform Kal Sarp Shanti Pooja at Trimbakeshwar or Kashi Vishwanath temple
- Chant “ॐ नमः शिवाय” daily in the morning during Brahma Muhurat (4:00–6:00 AM IST)
- Place a silver serpent idol in your home temple
🌿 Practical Tips Along with Remedies
While Vedic remedies help balance planetary energies, real-world action matters too:
- Keep open and honest communication with your partner
- Avoid impulsive decisions during emotional highs or lows
- Seek guidance from both families early to avoid last-minute objections
- Get your Kundali matched by a professional astrologer before fixing the date
Final Thought
Astrology is meant to guide, not to instill fear.
If your love marriage is facing hurdles, it’s not always destiny’s punishment — sometimes it’s just cosmic timing that needs balancing.
As the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra says:
“Graha yathaa balam phalam dadati” — The planets deliver results in proportion to their strength.
💛 Have you ever checked if your Kundali has any of these doshas?
Your love story might just need the right cosmic remedy to turn into a forever bond.
QnA
Q: My love marriage is getting delayed even though my partner and I are committed. Could it be due to a Kundali dosha?
A: Yes, in Vedic astrology, certain doshas like Mangal Dosha, Shani Dosha, Rahu-Ketu Dosha, Venus Affliction, or Kal Sarp Dosha can delay or complicate love marriages despite a strong relationship. These planetary influences may cause family opposition, misunderstandings, or repeated postponements. The good news is that each dosha has specific remedies, from mantras and poojas to charity, that can balance these cosmic energies and help remove obstacles. Getting your Kundali analysed by an experienced astrologer is the first step toward aligning your love life with favourable planetary timings.
