Astrological Factors for Marriage Delay
Reasons Behind Delay Marriage: Marriage is one of the most significant events in life, which brings companionship, stability, and happiness. However, in life, we often find that despite everything being “right”, getting married is often delayed. When it comes to marriage, astrology has a strong relation to the timing of marriage to do with the 7th house of the horoscope, along with certain planetary factors. By analyzing these combinations, an astrologer can uncover reasons for marriage delays and provide a remedy for the delays.
Important astrological considerations for a delay in marriage:
- Weak or Afflicted 7th House: The 7th house represents marriage and partnerships. If the 7th house or its lord is weak or positioned in malefic houses (6th, 8th, or 12th), or afflicted by malefic planets (e.g. Saturn, Mars, or Rahu), your marriage is in be delayed.
- Saturn’s Influence: Saturn (Shani) is called the planet of delay, stability, and discipline. If Saturn aspects the 7th house, or if Saturn is situated in the 7th house, marriage often occurs later in life (often after maturity).
- Mangal Dosha (Mars Dosha): In Hindu astrology, Mangal- dosha occurs when Mars is in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house. In this scenario marriage may be delayed, or difficult in locating the right partner.
- Venus Affliction: The planet Venus is associated with love, romance, and marriage in astrology. If Venus is weak, combust, or afflicted by malefic planets, delaying marriage time, or have difficulties in relationships can result.
- Rahu and Ketu: Rahu and Ketu can bring about confusion, sudden cutting off, or misunderstandings in relationships. In the 1st or 7th house, Rahu and Ketu may stop or cause delays in marriage.
- Dasha, or Planetary Periods: Sometimes even when the horoscope indicates marriage, the running planetary period (Dasha) is not favorable. Marriage cannot happen without a supportive favorable dasha of Venus, Jupiter, or 7th lord.
