Mars (Mangal) · 7th House (Yuvati/Spouse/Partnership)
Mars (Mangal) in the 7th House
The 7th is the house most associated with Mangal (Kuja) dosha: the classical texts warn of heat in marriage — quarrels, a strong-willed or combative spouse, separations — and friction with business partners.

Mars also gives passion, loyalty in a fight and the drive to build something together.
Traditional matching compares it with Mars in the partner's chart, and the texts list cancellations — the table below marks where one applies — so it is a comparison, not a sentence on the marriage.
Which sign falls in the 7th house depends on the lagna, and the sign changes Mars's strength there. For a Cancer (Karka) lagna this house holds Capricorn (Makara), where Mars is exalted; for a Capricorn (Makara) lagna it holds Cancer (Karka), where it is debilitated. It is the yogakaraka for Cancer (Karka), Leo (Simha) lagna.

- Ruchaka yoga (Pancha Mahapurusha): Mars in a kendra in its own or exaltation sign — for Cancer (Karka), Taurus (Vrishabha), Libra (Tula) lagna.
- Mangal (Kuja) dosha: this house counts; the table above marks the signs where a classical cancellation applies. The Manglik calculator checks a whole chart, from the lagna, the Moon and Venus.
Mars mahadasha runs 7 years. This placement speaks most clearly then — in Mars's own mahadasha, in its antardashas inside other mahadashas, and in the dasha of the lord of the 7th house. Saturn's and Jupiter's transits over this house, or over the planet itself, wake it too.

- Chant the Mars mantra: Om Kraam Kreem Kraum Sah Bhaumaya Namah. Sit facing east after sunrise — Tuesday is the strongest day for it. Chant 3 malas a day (324 repetitions), keeping count on a 108-bead mala. Keep it up for 40 days without a break — that completes the traditional 10,000.
- Give a Mars donation. Give red lentils, jaggery, copper on Tuesday, before noon. Offer it to a soldier, sportsperson or younger brother, or to anyone in genuine need. Give quietly, in person, without expecting thanks.
- Daily practice for Mars. Plant a neem tree; be of service to your siblings. Keep it up every day for 40 days — consistency is the remedy.
Make your kundli and open the card for the 7th house: it shows the sign there, where its lord sits and which planets occupy it — so you can see whether Mars really is in this house for you, and in which sign. The row of the table above for your lagna is then yours.

Common questions
Is Mars in the 7th house good or bad?
Not by itself. Traditional matching compares it with Mars in the partner's chart, and the texts list cancellations — the table below marks where one applies — so it is a comparison, not a sentence on the marriage. It is exalted here for Cancer (Karka) lagna and debilitated for Capricorn (Makara) lagna.
Which lagna gives Mars in the 7th house its best result?
Taurus (Vrishabha) (own sign); Cancer (Karka) (exalted, yogakaraka); Leo (Simha) (yogakaraka); Libra (Tula) (own sign) lagna. The full table above gives every lagna.
When does Mars in the 7th house give its results?
In Mars mahadasha (7 years), in Mars antardashas within other mahadashas, and in the dasha of the lord of the 7th house.
Does Mars in the 7th house cause Mangal dosha?
Yes — it is one of the six houses counted (1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 12). The texts also list cancellations, and in matching it is compared with Mars in the partner's chart — a comparison, not a verdict.
What are the remedies for Mars in the 7th house?
Mars's free practices — its beeja mantra, a donation on its day and one daily act — are listed above. No gemstone is suggested from a single placement.
