Philosophy Behind Matrimonial Related Remedies, Their Merits and Limitations

"Marriages are made in Heaven" is a famous saying. Astrologically speaking, "marriage" like other things in life, is karmic. You came here to the earth plane to cease the old karmas that you have carried along with you from your previous lifetimes. Thus, you’re current life partner or the one you are going to meet up with, in the future was known to you from your past births. We conclude by saying that, you might have had several lifetimes or just one, depending on your karmas; and in each lifetime you would have been a man/ woman.

Astroved's focus is to look at how astrological remedies can help solve the problems in getting a partner primarily. There are a number of issues involved. The delay you are facing in getting the right partner may be due to:

• Afflicted Mars
• Afflicted Venus
• Afflicted 7th house or the house Lord
• Snake planets in the 1st & 7th houses (Rahu & ketu)
• Ancestral Curse
• Karmic effect from the past life
• Beauty related problems: Issues related to vital statistics
• Caste issues / class issues
• Health issues or other miscellaneous problems, and so on.

From the reasons listed above, we get to know that one’s karma plays the key role. Karma works through all the planets. Astroved's objective is to provide you with the right assistance to perform appropriate remedies for your major/ minor troubles. Astrology is a complex science, and so are the remedies. It has been proven that the standard remedies approved by Astroved work miracles!

The Intrinsic worth of our remedies

Now, you must know that your Karma does not draw to a close, once you have undergone its effects. It still continues; therefore, karmas are eradicated through remedies. Performing a remedy is like consulting a well reputed doctor for your illness. In this case, each planet has its own doctor--the overlord. One has to perform remedies for both the planet and its overlord to live a better life.

Merits of the remedies

Karma does not get finished up just by going through it. Karma is annihilated through remedies. Performing a remedy is like going to a doctor for an illness. In this case, the doctors are the planets and their overlords. Each planet has its own overlord.

Invariably, the position of Mars (also called Kuja, or Mangal, and Chevvai) in your birth chart is the reason behind the delay and its related issues in getting a right match for you. Mars affliction occurs when Mars is in the 1st, 2nd, 4th and the 7th houses in a horoscope. This is calculated from the Ascendant (Lagna). However, some astrologers also calculate this from your Moon sign (Chandra Lagna). Readers are advised to keep a track of the signs and symptoms as mentioned, to know whether or not Mars is afflicted. The base rule is that if Mars gets afflicted, it creates huge problems prior to marriage and also after marriage as well.
