Know the commander of Vedic astrology – Mangal

No kingdom is safe without the presence of a formidable Commander at its service. More than Genghis Khan his commander & strategist Subutai is awed in history, so is the case with our epic Mahabharata where “Pitamah Bheeshma” became the apotheosis of commandership & valour. Talking about Mangal’s role in Vedic astrology & in our lives will not go much further to my quoted example. In one word it can be described as “Energy” & its placement in our chart, tells where we are going to exert our energy in this lifetime. Will it be towards our career, spouse, fighting enemies, religion? I will not cover the redundant points available everywhere, would rather bring forth my personal observations based out of research on numerous charts

• It shouldn’t be compared with Jupiter in terms of looking for your spouse. Mars is like that boyfriend which every girl yearns to have during college years. (Muscular athletic body, good following among friends, nice car or bike, overflowing possession, creativity & expertise in music dance & drama, impulsive streak to indulge into fights for others). The husband material is Jupiter which could bring wisdom in a girl’s life along with giving her a progeny
• Mars is that explosive energy, which if placed in an afflicted way in a native’s horoscope could make him a walking RDX ticking to explode anytime. Like those fellows who indulge in fist fights for trivial of reasons (even if someone has stared at them) & regret later. The impulsiveness & intensity of Mars is primarily seen in the charts of serial killers, rapists, murderers & brutal killings. On the contrary it also rules the chart of Police, Military, surgeons & army officials
• A dignified Mars in a horoscope fills the person with very strong will power, stamina & courage. Like those fellows who from the riches come down to the penniless state, but still remain optimistic & courageous to turn back the wheel of fortune
• It’s the significator of all kinds of blood, wounds, accidents & in extreme cases even of suicidal thoughts
• The most dreaded Maanglik Dosha in astrology is nothing but just the placement of Mars in a horoscope in the houses of spouse, longevity & family. This could be explained via very simple example that out of three Nakshatras ruled by every planet, two of the Mars’s ruled Nakshatra – Dhanistha & Mrigshira (few padas) are not considered good for marriage. As Mrigshira gives problems in married life through illusion, under suspicion or plain misunderstanding. And in extreme cases those under the strong negative influence of the Dhanistha often end up hating the opposite sex.
• A strong Mars bestow the native with lots of male friends, cordial relation with siblings, accumulation of Land (properties)
• Although it’s the combination of Mars & Venus in the horoscope which makes a person passionate and signifies love affairs, however the possibility of over indulgence in sex or perversion is solely dictated by Mars (If ill placed)
• Same like Saturn, Mars loves discipline. Those under the strong benefice influence of Mars, always live a life encircled by righteousness, virtuousness & full of discipline
• This is my personal observation but I have seen people under the strong influence of Mars, travels a lot in life. This could be due to Mars association with the nomadic number 9 of numerology or with Lord Hanuman (Son of wind)
• A weak Mars with other combination is the primary significator of piled up debts in a person’s life
• The placement of Mars is a blessing in the difficult Dusthana houses (Litigation, enemies, debt, courage, competition) of horoscope. As it gives the native courage to fight them back with full potential.

Now after going through all the aforementioned points, you would have understood the significance of Mars in our lives. So what could be the best suited remedy to bring the commander on your side? Is it some “chase the dog” kind of remedy advised by prime time astrologers or something more twisted than that? It’s very simple, the only Deity who has the lopsided courage equivalent to thousands of Mars put together is Lord Hanuman. Just by worshiping the epitome of courage & will power “Lord Hanuman”, & reciting their propitiating chant “Hanuman Chalisa”, you would surely have the commander at your side.
