A Manglik has to marry a Manglik only or otherwise the spouse dies. 2.A person can be a Double Magnlik 3.A person can be Triple Manglik 4.A person can be a Quadric-Manglik 5.Mangal dosha if prevalent , vanishes at a certain age, mostly 28 years 6.Mangal Dosha dalays one’s marriage 7.Presence of Mangal in 1/2/4/7/8/12 houses from Ascendant makes one Manglik. 8.Manglik Dosha is also seen from the lunar chart. 9.There is no remedy of Mangal Dosha, if it is found later that one of the spouses is a Manglik. 10.It shall be OK to solemnise a marriage between a non Manglik female to a Manglik male.
Mangal or Mars is intrinsically a cruel planet but it also represents for vigour, vitality, energy etc in ones horoscope. In a female horoscope it is the karaka of the menstrual cycle. Mangal has the lordship of two Rashis namely Aries or Mesha and Vrishchikka or Scorpio and they are the 1st and 8th respectively a combination which is not considered good in Vedic Astrology. Mangal, in addition to where placed, influences other houses through its aspect ( Dristhi) as well and those are the forth , seventh and eighth from it placement. As intrinsically it is a cruel or not forgiving planet its placement in certain houses was not considered good and the native was termed as Manglik even if the planet was considered good for the horoscope due to its lordship. This Manglik term has been coined in modern times and there is no mention of this Dosha in our ancient texts. This clearly shows that this Dosha was seen at par with other Dosha and was not hyped as it has been done in the modern times. The present day Astrologers term a native Manglik when Mars is placed in 1,2,4,7,8,or 12th house from the ascendant and to make the matter even worse some astrologer even see it from the lunar chart.
Let us shed away all the fears Mars carries on its shoulders.
1.It is not necessary that a Manglik marries a Manglik. If a person has to die after marriage it will due to the influence of his own planet and not due to wrong placement of Mars in his spouse’s horoscope. The death inflicting tendencies will be in the natives own chart. The matching of chart has to be done correctly to check the probability of this occurrence. 2.Like wise double Manglik is also an imaginative prospective coined by greedy astrologers. Ketu , who intrinsically is like Mangal can have the potential to make a person double manglik but even here its placement in the house has to be properly studied, as it behaves and results in the manner of the lord of the house where it is placed. 3.As described above triple manglik is a not existent thing in Vedic Astrology. 4.Similarly Quadric Manglik is also an imaginary yoga created by virtue of greed of the astrologers. 5.If a person happens to be a Manglik then he remains so and it does not get washes away at any age. 6.Mangal is in no way responsible for your late marriage. If it has happened there is some other combination which has failed to attract you and your astrologers. 7. Mangal influences three houses in addition the house where it placed and if we will find that if Mangal is situated in other house than the manglik houses then also it will put a considerable effect on the manglik houses. For example if Mangal is placed in ninth house of the horoscope of an individual, then it will be spoiling the 12th and 4th house by forth aspect and 8th aspect respectively. Therefore placement of Mangal in ninth can also be described as a Manglik position, like wise other non-manglik position can bring the same results. That means we all have misunderstood the concept of Mangal and created a thumb rule to describe the ill effects of Mangal for those people who do not wish to understand the basic concept. Without understanding its placements, its constellation and other finer points no one can be described as a Manglik. 8.Mangal Dosha is never ever seen from the lunar chart. If we combine both, no one in this world shall be a non -manglik. 9.There are various methods propagated in Vedic Astrology, which can lessen the effect of Mangal Dosha, but the correct method should be chosen with caution, only after a good verification of Horoscope /kundli or otherwise the effects may not be lasting. 10.Never ever pack off your non- Maglik daughter to a man who is a proven Manglik without making their charts match as it can fetch long lasting effects.

Yoga is the art of living a sound and healthy life. By enhancing the present status of mind, body and soul and by uniting these three prior elements in a single chord one can lead a perfect righteous life. Different forms of yoga like Hatha yoga, Ashtanga yoga or Kundalini yoga are practiced for ages to help in synchronizing mind, body and soul. Originated in India thousands of years ago, this art and philosophy of yoga implies teaching all people, the steps towards a stress-free life. Regular practicing of various yoga exercises like yoga postures or asanas, breathing exercises or Pranayama, ensure a calm and relaxed state of mind. A healthy mind indicates a healthy body. And yoga when practiced with meditation promises double benefit as meditation wards off all the unwanted thoughts and worries from human mind, thus making it pure like a crystal. Both yoga and meditation yield best result if a little bit of yoga music or meditation music can be incorporated in the practicing.
The main aim of yoga is to achieve the ultimate physical, mental and spiritual well-being of a human being. There are some basic rules which should be kept in mind while practicing yoga.

The best time to practice yoga is morning as it makes a person free for the whole day from the tension of taking time out for doing yoga. If doing yoga in morning is not possible for someone then he must choose a particular time and stick to that time everyday. It is advisable to practice yoga on a regular basis because irregularity will not bring the proper result. There is no need to practice yoga twice in a day but at least 15 to 20 minutes in a day should be alloted for doing this at the beginning and then gradually increase it to 1 hour. Try and find a clean, airy, calm and noiseless corner at home, play some soothing yoga music and make the atmosphere perfect for doing the sadhana. A mindful work like doing yoga must be done silently. So, talking or conversing with other person at that time is better to avoid.
Though there is no restriction on normal food habit but the meal-timing is an important factor in yoga practicing. Doing yoga with full stomach is strictly disapproved by the yoga gurus. One can take a light meal an hour before doing yoga. It is always advisable to maintain a proper diet and stay away from any kind of spicy food, fast food, coffee, alcohol or drugs. Try to keep the mind fresh and tension-free at the time of doing yoga otherwise it may hamper the concentration level. Generally during illness one should stop yoga practicing and for women, it should be stopped during their menstruation periods.

A feeling of anxiousness or anxiety prior to taking an examination is normal. In fact, some experts believe it is healthy as it serves as an effective stimuli that prompts one to come up with a preparation strategy for an upcoming examination.
But some people are not good with handling their nervousness and anxiety such that it affects their performance in the exam. This is most especially true for those who are cramming for their exam. This makes them repulsive to any preparation method as they are unable to clear their mind.
Allow Body Movement
When an individual feels tensed about the idea of taking an examination that s/he isn’t fully prepared for, the tension is manifested throughout the entire body. Although you have short preparations to ensure that you perform well on your exam, that feeling of nervous tension often reacts on you mentally making you incapable of thinking logically.
Hence, a trick of releasing body tension and nervousness would be really helpful in remaining calm prior to taking your exam. Allowing as much body movement as possible is really helpful. You can do simple exercises such as walking, jogging, or stretching. This will effectively calm your nerves and release any tension that is building up. Doing these body movement enhancement exercises are also quite helpful in waking up your nerves and senses.
Reducing Anxiety and Stress
Stress and anxiety are two of the worst mental and physical health enemies. When people suffer from stress or anxiety, you lose synchronization and focus. This is a deadly combination when you are about to take an examination. The negative emotions or thoughts that you might be having could prevent you from thinking clearly. As a result, you have difficulty remembering all that you have reviewed for the exam and put you at risk for low performance.
Performing Rhythmic Breathing
Rhythmic breathing has been known to offer a wide range of benefits as a yoga practice. Among the physiological effects are increased oxygen supply and re-establishment of the body’s natural rhythm.
Mentally though, rhythmic breathing offers benefits that would help those who are cramming for their exam. It helps bring about calmness of the mind, increase your level of self-confidence, and improve concentration ability. These are all mental abilities that would help improve your performance in an examination. Thus, retention of important information that you need to be able to respond to the exam questionnaires is a very useful benefit of practicing this particular yoga breathing technique.
Deep Breathing
Deep breathing in yoga has been known to effectively combat stress. As you know, preparing for an exam is such a stressful situation to be in. The level of stress also adds up when the actual time of the examination is drawing near and you have not done enough preparation to be confident on your exam performance.
Deep breathing comprises of full and cleansing breaths. This relaxation technique is very simple to perform and yet its effects on the body are very powerful. Here are the steps you can follow:
Find a comfortable sitting position. Make sure that your back is straight while you place on hand on your chest and the other resting on your stomach.
Use your nose for breathing in. Do this fully such that you can see your hand resting on your stomach rise. There should also be movement on your chest.
Use your mouth for exhalation. Do this in a sudden and forceful manner to empty out your lungs.
Repeat the same process all over again.
Progressive Muscle Relaxation
Here is another well known strategy used for stress relief due to its effectiveness. It involves two process that follows a systematic approach. The first step is involved with tensing specific muscle groups, while the second part helps in releasing that tension to provide relaxation. This is also a very good relaxation technique to use if you are suffering from muscular tension in specific areas of the body. It takes only a few minutes and would be very effective to perform a few minutes before starting your examination.
You must begin by trying to relax and make your entire body comfortable. You can start with slow and deep breathing to provide relaxation. Once you are ready, you can focus your attention on your right foot. Try to tense your muscles on your right foot by squeezing it and holding this position for at least 10 seconds. After that, relax your right foot and bask in the feeling of relaxing your foot.
Use the same method on your left foot this time. The same sequence of creating and releasing tension should be done. Follow this pattern by slowly working your way upwards in your body.
Mindfulness Meditation
Mindfulness meditation must not be confused with meditation. The former is more effective if you want to use this method for stress relief or reducing anxiety caused by cramming for an exam. The idea of mindfulness is basically enabling you to get rid of any negative form of thought and becoming more engaged with the present moment. This quality allows you to focus on the task at hand, which in this case is the exam, and increase ability to concentrate.
Although deeper than regular meditation, it does not equal zoning out though. There is still that certain level of awareness of your physical environment but attaining a more specific focus. This will be able you to be more guided in your mental activities.
Guided Visualization
Lack of focus and unorganized thoughts are very characteristic among individuals who are anxious or cramming for an exam. This is crucial as you could basically forget all the information you have patiently reviewed on previously.
To follow this relaxation technique, you must imagine a serene and tranquil scene. Your goal must be to find peace and release any form of tension, whether mental or physical. It could be somewhere tropical or your favorite place as a child, but it has to have a calming effect on you. Do this with your eyes closed and allow yourself to drift away into the scene. Take note of all sensory impulses too for a more effective stress relief.
Tai Chi
Tai Chi is one particular yoga style that you can practice to provide more physical and mental harmony that would help your exam preparation. It comprises of a series of slow and flowing movements. Some of the benefits of practicing Tai Chi includes relaxation of mind and body, revitalized energy, and increased concentration ability.
Tai Chi is a low impact yoga style that you can perform, which suits even those with minimum fitness level or any age level. Plus, the above mentioned benefits will truly help you cope with the tension of an upcoming examination.

New! Your personal mantra based on your personal horoscope. Secrete know-how. You can not find it anywhere else. We guarantee real lasting positive effects. Calmness, health, energy, success in love and business. Your future is in your hands!
Mantras are prayers for unbelievers, who need spiritual proofs. As a start to make sure you are on the right path you can try general mantra. Aum Yeum Om. Aum means wisdom, Yeum means force and Om means love. The rhythmic variant – Aum Yeum Aum Yeum Yeum Yeum Aum Yeum Yeum Om Yeum Om Om Om Yeum Om – makes repetition and concentration easier. This general mantra gives spiritual energy to your soul and awakens your spirit.
Personal mantras give calmness and energy, needed for solving your personal problems. They can be also both contemplative and rhythmical and have their meaning too. Mantra-yoga is experimental. You need not believe it, just try.
Besides your mantra you can get analysis of your personal horoscope. One concrete question, one general theme (love, marriage, children, money, job etc.), all questions or full analysis.
You have a free choice. Your horoscope can work on different levels. It depends on you how to use your planets in your real life. Your Sun may be your personal God, or your higher Self, or your creative potential. In mantra M means the Sun, other sounds mean elements, planets and zodiac signs. Mantras ending with M lead to spiritual resurrection and growth.
Spiritual astrology interprets personal horoscopes as spiritual programs. Spiritual astrologer helps to change your bad fate by meditation and prayer. God chooses the right level of your horoscope and your problem is solved. There are transcendental aspects of planets (derived from 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19), not used by traditional non-spiritual astrologers, who do not appeal to God. Transcendental meditation with mantras switches this hidden resources and improves the chances given by your horoscope, that is your fate.
Success in business. Lord, You are our success! Repeat this prayer before any business and God will help you to succeed. Business astrology can choose the right time for meetings, talks and contracts. It is possible to compare your horoscope with horoscopes of partners to test compatibility and horoscopes of firms, companies, enterprises and state organizations to find out their attitude towards your business and your possible success. Saturn is state, laws, rules, restrictions, logic, facts, reality and results. Jupiter is responsible for business in general, for business as private initiative. Its aspects both natal and transitive show all perspectives of your business idea and problems that are waiting for you in the near and distant future. Mars is competition and taxes, Venus is money, Mercury is commerce, Sun is gold, creative energy, inspiration and impulse for work. Aspects of all these planets in the beginning of any process can determine its end. Success in business depends on this combination of planets and on its interpretation by God. Meditation and prayer change negative combinations into complex harmonious, resolving all contradictions as in music in a finale chord.
Astral wars. Wars are unavoidable. People fight for love, for money, for success. Astral wars go on invisibly between all rival companies, or nations, or civilizations. Psychic energy works through unconscious and conscious contacts at long distance. For extrasensory perception destructive energy is black, constructive energy is white. Transcendental energy looks violet, it brings tranquility, serenity and contemplation. Black rays mean threat and danger, white rays mean perspectives of cooperation.
Light analysis can warn you of hostile, unfriendly plans of all your enemies. And help you to avoid their traps, to get ready for the battles that wait you in the future. Imagine the sun emitting white rays to your head (reason), breast (feelings) and belly (will). It will restore your health and strength and give you power to win the war. Black rays should be returned to their source and should destroy your rival. Astral wars develop extrasensory perception, fighting reflexes and your will. Don’t be afraid of them, just win.
Personal defense. Lord, You are our defense! Repeat this prayer if you are threatened by criminals, rivals or enemies. Reinforce your mantra by a direct and conscious appeal to the Source of all life. If you do not believe in God or do not trust Him, meditate on the Sun. Sun, You are my force! Sun, You are my life! Sun, You are me health! Etc.
God will help you because any sun meditation is addressed to the same Source of energy and success as all prayers. You needn’t believe Him, experiment and see what you get. If the danger is neutralized and you need something else, change the last word of the prayer to express your new wish. Lord, You are our wisdom! Lord, You are our reason! Lord, you are our love! No prayer is useless, God remembers everything and answers in appropriate time. Your personal defense and success depend on your own efforts. God. You are our faith!
Aquarius. The age of Aquarius opens space and new spiritual astrology for 2 thousands years. In the southern hemisphere it is accompanied by the age of Lion, ruled by Sun. Its element is fire and its quality is inspiration, creativity and direct revelation of God. Australia is the future spiritual center of our civilization and the start of the sixth race. Its development will be in the USA and Siberia, and it will last for 13 thousands years. The planet of the sixth race is Venus, the ruler of the sixth day of the week. It gives beauty and success in love and art. The sixth race is opened by new cinema. Hollywood is only a beginning. The future films will show the reality of space as fantasy. And the Earth will enter the community of Galaxy civilizations by its art and religion of Light.
The Earth longitude is divided into 12 Zodiac sectors by 30 degrees each. Europe is Pisces (0-30), Europe Russia, Iran, Iraq and Israel are Ares (30-60), India and Siberia are Taurus (60-90), Western China and Far East are Gemini (90-120), Eastern China and Japan are Cancer (120-150), Australia and New Zeeland are Lion (150-180), Alaska is Virgin (180-210), Western Canada and The Pacific coast of the USA are Libra (210-240), The rest of Canada and USA is Scorpio (240-270) and Sagittarius (270-300), Latin America is Sagittarius (270-300) and Capricorn (300-330), England and Spain are Aquarius (330-360).
These sectors are activated by the change of eras (2155 years each). Pisces, Christianity is Europe, Ares, Judaism is Near East, Taurus, Hinduism is India etc. Now Lion is in Australia and New Zeeland, Aquarius is in Great Britain and Spain. This explains the spread of Anglo-Saxons and Spanish language in Northern and Southern America. Planets, ruling these signs are activated as in the days of the week. Sun (Lion) is the 1ST, Austroloid race, Moon (Cancer) is the 2nd, Negroid, black race, Mars (Scorpio) is the 3rd, Mongoloid red race, Mercury (Gemini) is the 4th, Mongoloid yellow race, Jupiter (Pisces) is the 5th, Europeoid, white race, Venus (Libra) is the 6th, starting race, Saturn (Capricorn) is the 7th, distant future race.
So the 6th race will reach its peak in the era of Libra on the territory of the USA. (The start is the fire sign, Lion, Australia).The 7th race will reach its peak in the era of Capricorn on the territory of Latin America. The future influences the present and these territories develop according to the qualities of the ruling planets. Hollywood is Venus (beauty and love), the ruler of the 6th race. The sector of Scorpio gives Hollywood films and actors the risk and mystery that makes them attractive all over the world. The sector of Sagittarius gives Americans luck and success.
