UNDERSTANDING THE TIMING OF MARRIAGE

Kedar Nath Manapragada

Works as VFX Supervisor in Canada and has worked on several Hollywood movies. His passion in astrology grew exponentially 4 years ago and started learning it deeply. Since then, he is working on a framework to find out the accurate timing of any event. He asks himself questions till he gets satisfactory answers to the predictive methodology.

There are several ways people follow to find the timing of marriage. While learning astrology, I found that the approach is important to predicting anything. In D-1, we find so many possibilities and Yogas, but they always happen in a specific time, and nothing is effective throughout the life from birth, but everything delivers its results in favourable time. Here, we are trying to find the timing of marriage.

Nature delivers its results through planets at a particular time. To time any event, we need to understand who can deliver it to us and the timing of it will be when the Dasa of those planets are running. To time the marriage, I follow below process.

1. Whether it is delayed or normal based on geographical location

2. Which planets can deliver the marriage to the native

3. Transit of Jupiter over D-1 and Saturn over Navamsa

For marriage, I consider the 7th house and the 11th house (fulfillment of desire) to be very important. Few people consider 4th, and few consider 2nd as well, but I found these are less important. Venus is karaka for marriage in males and Mars in females.

We need to find out if any malefic planets are affecting the 7th house. Mars is the main planet that delays the marriage. If Mars is placed in the 1st or 7th, then chances are it will be a delayed marriage. Again, we need to consider the geographical location to understand, what is early in one place may be late in another place or country. Jupiter aspect on the 7th house is always beneficial even if there are malefic planets placed. Jupiter or Saturn in 7th house may delay marriage, but this is not always the case. Then we need to find out which of the planets are responsible for delivering marriage. As mentioned above, the 7th and the 11th are key houses for marriage. Below is the way to find out the planets who can deliver marriage.

• Owner of A7 (Arudha of 7th house)

• Find the planets in the nakshatras of owner of the 7th house and planets in the 7th house.

• Rahu and Venus also can give marriage.

Marriage will happen only in the dasas of planets that can deliver marriage. Here, the possibilities of timing will be more or less based on the number of planets capable of delivery.

Marriage cannot happen without the help of Jupiter and Saturn in transit. There are different places in transits people look at like aspecting the 7th house, 7th lord etc in D-1 but I found that the aspect of Jupiter on the point of lagna longitude + 7th lord placement works more closely. While checking the transit, we need to check the nakshatra in which Jupiter is placed. If the nakshatra is in two rashis then we can consider aspects of Jupiter from both houses. To narrow down further we can consider the aspects of Saturn on the 7th house in navamsa.

After checking the above points closely and trying to align them, we come up with 2-3 strong timing possibilities of marriage. By refining the above methodology further, we can narrow down the dates of marriage, but I found that in 80-90 % of charts ,it is within 2 months of predicted time.
