This Dosha is seen from Ascendant, Moon sign and Venus sign. Manglik Dosha is considered fully Manglik if this placement is there in all three or any two positions mentioned above. It is partial Manglik if Dosha appears only in one position out of three.

All the above placements reflected affect marriage houses. The general opinion is that Manglik people should marry Manglik only to cancel this Dosha. Mars in the 1st house will aspect the 7th and the 8th house which are meant for conjugal bliss and Mangalay Sthan. Mars in the 2nd house also aspects the 8th house. Mars in the 4th house spoils family and happiness. Mars in the 12th being the 6th house of disease from 7th house and 8th from 5th being longevity of children will wreak havoc for the native.
