• The presence of Mars from 3rd, 6th, 10th 11th house from lagna in a chart gives favorable results.

Chevvai Dosham - What is it?

When Mars or Chevvai is placed in the 2nd, 4th, 7th, or 8th houses from the moonsign or from one`s lagna or ascendant, then chevvai dosham is formed.
Before marriage, it is very important to check for the doshas in both the groom`s and bride`s chart, as presence of dosha would lead to marital discord, separation, divorce and even death.
Traditionally, the one with dosha is married to another with the same quantum of dosha, as it cancels the evil effects.
