These 3 time-tested remedies can fix delay in marriage
Do you often open social media and come across feeds about friends and colleagues getting hitched or engaged and wonder when will you find the love of your life? Then the answer to this may be hidden in your birth chart and zodiac signs.
As per ancient Vedic texts and scriptures, it is believed that delay in marriage often stems from astrological factors like weak Venus, Saturn's influence, or doshas in Vedic charts. However, there is an age-old belief that no one can decode the day of birth, marriage and death; but as per Vedic astrology, there are some time-tested remedies that are believed to realign energies and planetary positions for timely union. Here are three powerful Vedic practices that can strengthen Venus and will reduce and fix the hurdles that cause delay in marriage.
What causes delay in marriage?
According to ancient scriptures and books of Vedic astrology, delays in marriage often arise from afflictions in the 7th house (marriage) or its lord caused by malefic planets like Saturn, which leads to delays in maturity. Another prominent planet that may cause hurdles in marriage is Mars, which leads to Manglik Dosha in the 1st,4th,7th,8th, 12th houses, causing conflicts as well as triggering Rahu/Ketu illusions in partnerships or weak Venus/Jupiter that may lack love blessings for some people. These challenging dashas of planets often postpone unions until favorable periods. Here are some remedies that may
Strengthen Venus
It is believed that a strong Venus can remove hurdles and delay marriage; this is because Venus governs love and partnerships, and a weakened position of this planet may lead to delays. A simple remedy revolves around wearing white or pastel shades on Fridays and offering rice kheer to Goddess Lakshmi along with chanting "Om Shukraya Namaha" 108 times daily to boost its energy. Incorporating mild perfumes and a 13 Mukhi Rudraksha enhances attraction and suitable matches.
Shiva-Parvati Puja
Worshipping Lord Shiva and Parvati on Mondays is also believed to remove marital hurdles and blockages by invoking the divine union energies. A simple remedy can be to offer Panchamrit to the Shivling, perform Abhishekam, and recite the Parvati Mangal stotra on Mondays. It is also believed that observing Solah Somvar Vrat (16 Monday) fasts from the month of Shravana brings in blessings for women seeking early marriage.
Thursday fasting
Another easy way to reduce the affect of doshas is by fasting on Thursdays. It is believed that doing so can honor Jupiter and Lord Vishnu, and their blessings help in countering delays from Guru dosha. Worship Lord Brihaspati with yellow flowers, and chant Katyayani Mantra for girls, or the Guru Balishtha Anushthan can also speed up the process of meeting alliances and finding a partner. Lastly, feeding jaggery, chana dal or chapatis to cows can also appease Guru Brihaspati, which will remove the hurdles.
