Mangal (Mars) is the warrior planet representing courage, energy, aggression, and physical strength. It governs the 1st house (body) and 8th house (longevity) as a natural significator. Mars is the commander-in-chief of the planetary cabinet and rules over military, police, surgeons, engineers, and athletes. A strong Mars gives fearlessness, land ownership, technical skills, and leadership in competitive fields. A weak Mars causes anger issues, accidents, blood disorders, and property disputes. Mangal Dosha (when Mars is in 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house) is particularly important for marriage compatibility in Vedic astrology.
