1. Love Marriages in Astrology
The driving factors in love marriages are emotional compatibility and mutual attraction together with personal choice selection. From an astrological perspective, certain planetary combinations favor such unions.
Key Houses and Planets:
- 5th House: Romance, dating, love affairs.
- 7th House: Marital life, long-term partnerships.
- 11th House: Desires and fulfillment.
- Planets: Venus (love), Moon (emotions), Mars (passion), Rahu (unconventionality), Mercury (communication).
Yogas:
- Connection between the 5th and 7th house or their lords.
- Venus or Moon in the 5th or 7th house.
- Rahu’s influence on the 5th house, 7th house, or Venus often brings unconventional or inter-caste love marriages.
- Mercury + Venus in the 1st, 5th, 7th, or 11th houses denotes strong communication and charm, favoring love unions.
Role of Dasha and Transit:
Even if yoga exists for love marriages, the actual event depends on favorable planetary periods (dashas) and transits — especially of Venus, Rahu, or the 7th lord.
Successful indicators:
- No affliction to Venus or 7th house.
- Harmonious Moon-Venus connection.
- Favorable aspects from Jupiter bring stability.
2. Arranged Marriages in Astrology
Society provides preference to family alliances with tradition and cultural requirements as central concepts in arranged marriages. Through Vedic astrology practitioners have developed a distinctive capability to distinguish between romantic and arranged relationship practices.
Key Houses and Planets:
- 7th House: Marital life and spouse.
- 2nd House: Family and values.
- 4th House: Domestic comfort and upbringing.
- 9th House: Dharma, blessings, tradition.
- Planets: Jupiter (guidance), Saturn (karma, social customs), Sun (father/family), Moon (mother/family).
Yogas:
- A strong Saturn position in the 7th house will drive towards getting married traditionally.
- Jupiter’s placements in the 7th house or while aspecting it strongly suggest marriages through family channels.
- A weak involvement between planets and the 5th house signs demonstrates limited romantic interest toward romantic choices, since it draws people toward arranged matches instead.
A Sun-Moon relationship with the 7th house indicates that family members involve themselves in matchmaker duties.
Role of Matchmaking:
Parents use Kundli Milan for horoscope matching in arranged marriages to verify dosha neutrality and guna compatibility in order to achieve lasting harmony between couples.
Successful Indicators:
- Strong 2nd and 4th house for family support.
- No afflictions to the 7th house or its lord.
- Jupiter aspecting Venus or the 7th house ensures dharmic support.
3. Disturbed Marriages in Astrology
Not all marriages progress without obstacles. Planetary configurations create problems, which can include conflicts between partners as well as space and emotional gaps or cases of infidelity and literal physical detachment. The astrological practice reveals origins of problems and proposes solutions to resolve them.
There are key Astrological indicators predicted for marital distress:
- • 7th House Afflicted: Malefic such as Saturn, Mars, Rahu or Ketu in 7th House may pose issue.
- Venus afflicted by Saturn, Mars or Rahu may indicate that one is not satisfied in love or around the intimate partner.
- 6th House involvement: Litigation or disputes arising from the 6th House is linked to the 7th house.
- Kuja Dosha (Manglik Dosha): Mars in 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house is called as, ‘Kuja Dosha (Manglik Dosha)’ that can create mood change, rage, violence etc in a life partnership.
- Rahu-Ketu axis on 1-7 axis means karmic entanglements and lack of mutual understanding.
Psychological and Emotional Clues:
- Moon’s position: denotes emotional stability. An afflicted or debilitated Moon can make one overly reactive or unreactive emotionally.
- Mercury afflicted indicates communication gaps.
- Saturn’s aspect: leads to delays, dryness or overload with responsibility
Remedies for Disturbed Marriages:
- Regularly chanting Vishnu Sahasranama or Durga Saptashati.
- Fasting on Fridays and offering white sweets to Goddess Lakshmi for harmony.
- Wearing a diamond or opal if Venus is weak (only after consulting an astrologer).
Counseling and therapy during difficult dasha phases to manage stress positively
4. Divorce in Astrology
Nevertheless, although marriages are meant to last forever, some relationships break even if you tried all the best. When there are too many malefic factors in the 7th house, also its disposed lord, (Venus) and during the series of dashas, divorce or separation can be foreseen.
Astrological Combinations Indicating Divorce:
- Multiple malefics 7th house itself is of multiple malefics (Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, Mars, Sun).
- If the 7th house has 6th Lord or viceversa, it denotes legal separation or the case of disputes.
- Afflicted Venus Thus, Venus was especially afflicted in dual signs (Gemini and Pisces) and ill placed in bad houses.
- Rahu-Ketu on the 1st and 7th axis along with Moon or Venus affliction brings emotional breakups.
- Dasha: Also, 6th, 8th or 12th lord of Dasha when husband wife quarrel mostly had to face the ends of divorce proceeding..
Role of Navamsa (D9 Chart):
Marital bliss depends greatly on Navamsa. Even a promising main chart may result into a divorce if the 7th lord is weak in the Navamsa or Venus is afflicted here.
Spiritual Perspective:
Divorce is karma, and karma is always being paid in this life on past life debt. Sometimes it is not negative, it leads to soul growth and better partnerships in the future.
Remedies to Prevent Divorce or Improve Marriage:
- Strengthen the 7th lord via mantras or gemstones (only with guidance).
- Perform Rudrabhishek to pacify malefic Mars or Rahu.
- Offer white flowers to Venus on Fridays.
- Worship Lord Shiva and Parvati together, especially during Pradosh or Mondays.
