Mars in the 4th house of a Horoscope: Mangal in 4th house

What I have observed over the years that Mangal or Mars draws a lot of attention from nonAstro folks. So I thought of writing down a quick article about Mars effects in all the 12
houses. I will try to cover in a very objective manner keeping side my creativity (whatever
little) aside.

A Horoscope is called as Manglik if Mangal is placed in one of 1, 4, 7, 8, 12

houses; i.e. 5 out 12 people in this world are Manglik (aprx 42%). It indicates that it
is not a big deal then? There are various varieties of Mangal coined by Astrologers: Kadak
Mangal, Soumya Mangal etc! Mangal with a Soumya planet like Moon or Venus is usually
treated as Soumya. Or Mangal in Gurus drushti is called Soumya. Even the one with Shanis
drushti is considered Soumya! So basically --- All Manglik varieties are Soumya?! More on
that later.

Mars is the governor of: Blood, Siblings, sports, land, vehicles, speed, aggression, adrenaline,
south direction

Mars in the 4th house: Sukh-sthan, Mother, House, Vehicles, Home-Land,

Farming, Native place
Why would a soul chose (or forced to) 4th house Mangal? The 4th house is comfort zone, the
such-sthan, the native place, the home and of course house that shows your Mother. The
SUKH i.e. the comfort or joy of everything in life is shown by the 4 th house. You might
inherit property or land (the well placed 8 th house) but would you use it yourself is shown by
the 4th house. A very well placed 4 th house shows multiple houses, vehicles etc. This is the
house that shows if you have a land which can be used for farming (water availability). The
4th house on the whole shows ability to keep you & your surroundings happy (or lack of).
Moon and Venus or Guru in the 4th house shows this ability in abundance.

So Mars in 4th house Mars being Governor or siblings, blood, land in our life shows that
the person wants to have the comforts of these things in life. It also shows affinity of lands
and apartments, houses etc. A well placed Mars (in good sign, aspected by Guru or Moon or
Shukra) shows great karma with these things and success in land, happiness from siblings
etc matters. A very badly placed Mars & especially in the 4 th house shows that the person
will get the lands, apartments etc with some issues with it. i.e. the person will have those
things but not enjoy or leverage the land for happiness.

The 4th house Mars also shows some arrogance or restlessness at home-front but not in
office! It is like showing aggression in kitchen but not where it matters the most i.e.
workplace. It also shows that the person although a very good at sports would not make
GREAT attempts at personal milestones or overachieving in sports. This Mangal does not
want to work very hard as SUKH STHAN planets (4 th house) will never allow person to work
very hard! The soul wants to rest and hence the predominant 4 th house! (Shani in the 4th
house (Advani & Bachchan. Aurangzeb have/had 4th house Shani) keeps the person away
from comforts and keeps person working very hard trying to come out of comfort zone
always! Of course the 4th Shani shows comfort or support or SUKH/happiness from masses.)

The 4th house VERY WELL PLACED Mars shows that the person is very good at providing
sports like environment! The 4th house is about creating environment around you which is
great for sports. So providing GYM if in Mangals (Mesh Vrishchik) or Guru rashis
(Dhanu/Meen)or providing a sports-bar if in Shukra rashi is always on cards for 4 th house
Mangal. Dhanu rashi Mangal in 4th house would certainly show great physical strength etc
but more attitude towards providing Gym or sports equipment than using them!
Sania Mirza has 4th house uchcha Mangal (Tula lagna and Tula rashi & Surya also). Mars in
Capricorn (Makar) would ALWAYS give sports ability even if in the 12 th house but 4th house
Mangal makes person work less hard and achieve far lesser than what it can achieve. To
summarize the ability of hard-work is not the part of the talent of the 4 th house Mangal it is
there in 3, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11 house Mangal quite a bit.

Just imagine a very badly placed Mangal in 4 th house and you can see obligations or some
bad experiences with land or the apartments etc. Also, moms health could be affected and
also some bhawu-bandaki i.e. fighting with siblings for property/land etc could be very well
there.
