Marriage is the prominent milestone in individual life. As a part of Indian society, delayed marriages are often marked as a concern. In astrology, the reason for delayed marriage is some planetary position that is causing obstacles. Marriage timings are influenced by house conditions and timing cycles also known as doshas. If you are the one struggling with delayed marriages, you can contact some best astrologers for marriages that can help you by studying your birth chart and tell you reasons and their remedies.
In this blog let us see what factors influenced the timing of marriages and reasons for late marriage with remedies and solutions.
Causes of delayed marriages
In vedic astrology, following are the key reasons of delayed marriages:
- Mangalik/ Mangal Dosha- If Mars is in 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house, there must be the chances of late marriages. It is commonly misunderstood that Mars creates problems in marriages but it is favourable sometimes if staying in a specific house. When a person is mangalik, it is advised to marry a partner that is mangalik too, to cancel out the effect of mangal.
- Weak jupiter- The individual will experience issues in marriages or face late marriage because of a weak Jupiter. When Jupiter is influenced by unfavorable houses and planets, influenced by Saturn, or enters in malefic Nakshatras, the person will face these issues.
- Weak Venus- Venus is the planet of romance and love. If it is weak, a person may lack sexual pleasure. An unstable Venus eventually leads to delayed romantic connections and influences late marriages.
- Unfavorable combinations- there are several combinations in horoscope that indicate late marriages:
- Saturn in 7th house or aspecting 7th Lord- Direct placement of Saturn in 7th house delays marriage for 3 to 7 years and creates obstacles respectively.
- Mangal Dosha as discussed
- Influenced Venus-Jupiter- Venus in 6th/8th/12th house creates obstacles in relationships.
- Rahu-Ketu doshas
- Mismatched Nakshatra
- Gan dosha- if both the couple are from the same Gana, there is no need to worry about dosha. But if you are from different dosha, you will face love and affection issues, frequent fights, or even delay and problems in childbirth.
- Bhakoot dosha- If it remains unsolved, then it is possible to get serious illness or random accidents to an individual. You may face financial problems and mental tension.
- Kaal Sarp Dosha- When all seven planets come between Rahu and Ketu, it forms Kaal Sarp Dosha. A person born in this period will suffer from tension, fear of death and it eventually affects the marriage as it stays for over 47years (depends person to person).
- Pitra Dosha- When Sun is afflicted with Rahu or Saturn, it indicates Pitra Dosha. It causes repeated marriage obstacles because of unresolved family karma.
