Marriage is a big moment in life. But when it doesn’t happen on time, people ask, “Why is my marriage delayed?” Many times, the reason is not just family or society, but something deeper in your birth chart or Kundli.
Let’s look at 7 common astrology reasons for delay in marriage and easy remedies, based on Vedic astrology and guidance from experts like Dr. Vinay Bajrangi.
1. Weak Venus — Planet of Love and Relationship
Venus is known as the planet of love, beauty and it controls love and marriage. If Venus is weak or sitting in a bad place in the chart (like the 6th, 8th, or 12th house), it may delay marriage.
Remedy: Worship Goddess Lakshmi on Fridays and wear a diamond (only after expert advice).
2. Saturn’s Role — Slow but Serious
Saturn brings delays. If it affects the 7th house or sits with Venus or the 7th lord, marriage may be late.
Remedy: Keep fast on Saturdays and chant the Shani mantra. Don’t marry during Sade Sati or Dhaiya unless advised by an expert.
3. Manglik Dosha — Mars creates Trouble and Delay in marriage
When Mars is in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house, it forms Manglik Dosha, which can delay or disturb marriage.
Remedy: Do a Mangal Dosha Nivaran Puja or marry another Manglik. Check the Navamsa chart (D-9) too.
4. Problems in the 7th House — House of Marriage
The 7th house of birth chart is known as the house of marriage and partnership.
If your 7th house or marriage house is empty or affected by bad planets like Rahu or Saturn, marriage can be delayed.
Remedy: Chant Om Namah Shivaya and do Rudrabhishek on Mondays.
5. Past Life Karma — Hidden Blocks or past life karma’s
Sometimes delay happens due to past life promises or karma. These are not always visible in the current chart.
Remedy: Do karma correction through good deeds, chanting, and spiritual guidance.
6. Other Bad Combinations (Yogas)
Some chart signs of delay include:
Venus too close to the Sun (combust)
7th lord in 6th or 12th house
Rahu or Sun in the 7th house
Moon in 8th house
Remedy: Focus on the right Mahadasha/Antardasha timing. Get your chart checked regularly.
7. Rahu-Ketu Confusion
Rahu and Ketu can confuse emotions and cause delay in marriage, especially if they affect the 7th house.
Remedy: Offer coconuts at Rahu temples on Saturdays. Avoid big love decisions during Rahu dasha.
