Mangal Totkas: Ancient Remedies, Energy Balance & Shastra Relevance
🌟 Mangal – The Planet of Energy, Courage & Action
Astrologer Ashish Somani Astrologer and Vastu Consultant
In astrology, Mangal (Mars) represents courage, vitality, property, siblings, and blood energy. Known as the Senapati (commander) among planets, Mars is both a protector and a destroyer depending on its strength.
👉 When strong, Mars blesses with:
-
Energy, courage, and determination
-
Good health and blood circulation
-
Success in property, land, and vehicles
-
Sibling harmony, leadership, and protection
👉 When weak or afflicted, Mars causes:
-
Anger, aggression, fights, and legal disputes
-
Accidents, surgeries, blood disorders, infections
-
Delayed or troubled marriage (Mangal Dosha)
-
Property disputes, sibling rivalry, loss of confidence
This is why our scriptures mention Mangal Totkas (remedies) to balance Mars’s fiery energy.
🔮 Why Mangal Remedies Work
-
Mars = fire + earth element + warrior energy.
-
Totkas = rituals of devotion, donation, and discipline that transform aggression into protection.
-
