Pooja for Delayed Marriage

Delay in marriage affects different people differently. Some people are not too bothered by it as they cherish their freedom and independence, while some people can be rather upset about it, especially as they have to face all kinds of questions from relatives and friends. 

Sometimes, there can be astrological reasons for delays in marriage. According to astrology, certain planetary combinations in a person’s horoscope can delay marriage. But astrology also offers many remedies for delayed marriage. There are many Poojas and Homas for delayed marriage that one can perform after consulting an astrologer. 

The best Pooja for delayed marriage is related to Shiva and Goddess Parvati, like the Gauri Shankar and Mangala Gauri Poojas. 

Reasons for Delay in Marriage

According to Vedic astrology, the 7th house in the birth chart plays a key role in determining the time of marriage.

 If planets that rule the 7th house are found in the 8th or 12th house, they produce “doshas.” One example is the Mangal dosha. Marriage is linked to the elements of fire and air. So, a successful marriage depends on the timely union of these two elements in the right proportions. 

Planets and Delays in Marriage

• Saturn, a slow-moving planet, can cause delays. If Saturn has any connection to the aspect of the seventh house or conjugates, it causes a delay in marriage.
• Weak Venus and Jupiter cause delays in marriage.
• Saturn and a combination of unfavorable planets
• Mixed effects from Saturn and Mars
• The seventh house has no planets in it.
• Ascendants have negative influences.
• Birth Rashis are not compatible.

• 7th Lord being in the 6th, 8th, or 12th houses.
• Mars and Venus are together in the 7th house.

The ideal age range for marriage is 18-24. But sometimes, marriage does not happen within this age range, despite many efforts. In such cases, delaying marriage is better, and the person should wear yellow clothes.  

 They can dress in yellow on all Thursdays. Also, on all Monday mornings, they can offer milk to the Shiva linga while reciting the Mantra “Om ParvatiPataye Namah.”
