Mars in Eighth House for Females

Mars in Eighth House for Females

Grave for Females : The position of Mars in a horoscope bears considerable significance from
many angles. The presence of Mars Dosh may cause marital delay, discord and disharmony,
unless suitably matched. Sometimes some kind of Puja and effective “Mantras” are also required
to curtail the evils of Mars. Presence of Mars Dosha in a female horoscope is as such not
desirable. In our experience placement of Mars in the 8th house is the worst disposition. Here in a
few cases illustrate how Ashtam Mangali girls fare poorly in marital matters.

Dr. B. Surya Narain Rao has mentioned in “Stree Jataka” that the 8th house from Lagna must be
consulted for marital life and widowhood. In a woman’s chart the 8th house from her Lagna
reveals sexual passions, her husband’s character, her fortune and general happiness.

Dr. B.V. Raman has also repeated this fact in “Hindu Predictive Astrology” Chapter XXX on
Female Horoscopy, that marital happiness must be adjudged from the 8th house. From 7th house
passion, her husband’s and her own character and fortune should be determined.

Dr. B.V. Raman has pointed out following combinations for widowhood :-
1. Conjunction of the lords of 7th and 8th house with malefic combinations.

2. Rahu and Moon in the 8th house will evil aspects.

3. Lord of the 7th house with Saturn and aspected by Mars,

4. Moon and Rahu in the 8th house and the lord of the 7th house with Saturn aspected by Mars.

5. The conjunction of the lords of 1st and 8th houses in her 12th house with a malefic aspect of
Mars on the 8th house.

6. The 7th house and its lord between two malefics without any beneficial aspects.

In the horoscope of males, presence of Mars in the 8th house is not so harmful as in the case of
females, particularly in respect to the marital happiness.

Before proceeding further it would be worthwhile to enumerate other results of Mars if it occupies
8th house in any horoscope. This position is an such bad for longevity and natural death. As Mars
lends aspect over the second house, so usually eye problems arise. Eighth house represents the
8th part of the body, so there will be Urinary troubles or problems in reproductive organs, piles or
fistula or boil in anus may be expected. There is a fear of fire, injury or cut etc. There will be
innumerable physical complaints, rheumatism and often a disturbed family life and only few
children. One will usually be devoid a true friends, while many friends may turn inimical. He will
have to face obstacles in his endeavours and success will be attained only after a hard labour.
This is not a good disposition of father’s longevity as 8th house is 12th from 9th.

It is well known that the 8th house governs “Mangalya” or marital happiness of females. A girl
should be treated as strongest Mangali if Mars is positioned in the 8th house of her horoscope. As
regards the Kuja Dosh in the female native, we have observed that presence of Mars Dosh in the
8th, 7th and the Lagna mostly causes havocs. Severity of Mars Dosh is maximum when Mars is
in 8th house. Mars often causes obstructions to a timely marriage.

What does Mars do after Marriage – A few of the probabilities of presence of Mars in 8th house in
respect to marital life are given below :-
1. There will be separation from husband, if marriage has taken place around 21 years. There will
be reunion or reconciliation around 28th year or, otherwise there will be a litigation after marriage
and will be finalized around 28th year.

2. The husband may receive some injury due to accident or his health may suffer seriously.
Mental troubles to husband are most likely to take place.

3. The husband will expire soon after marriage in a tragic way or will suffer seriously.

4. There will be a serious danger in very unbalanced marital life. Exact nature of the sorrow
depends on the exact set up of planets and needs study and practical experience.

Who will be harmed more, the husband or wife - Kuja Dosh must be got balanced while matching
the horoscope. If the difference is around 25%, the marriage will be happy. There will not be must
harm even if 50% difference is there. But in a difference of more than 50% of Kuja Dosh,
marriage should not be permitted. If a heavier Kuja Dosh is present in the horoscope of wife, the
wife will suffer more. She will have to face tragedies of life. If the husband has a heavier Kuja
Dosh, he will suffer more, Generally one’s Kuja Dosh harms the partner but the tragedy is to be
suffered by the affected person more heavily.

Many say that Kuja Dosh works only till 28th year of age. I agree with it but only partial Kuja Dosh
gets reduced after 28th year of age. Saturn and Jupiter’s aspect or association with Mars
increases Kuja Dosh.
