Do I Have Any Doshas in My Chart?

What Are Doshas in Astrology?

According to Vedic astrology, a dosha occurs when a planet occupies certain houses or forms combinations that create imbalance.

The type and severity of a dosha depend on the planet, its house placement, and its relationship with others.

Some doshas may delay marriage, while others might bring health issues or financial instability.

However, doshas do not define your fate — they simply highlight the areas where awareness and corrective effort are needed.

Astrology always offers remedies and timing insights to help neutralise these effects — and Pathfinder brings these ancient insights into a clear, personalised Q&A format, tailored to your birth chart.

Common Doshas and Their Effects

Mangal Dosha (Kuja Dosha)

• Caused by Mars in certain houses
• May lead to delays or conflicts in marriage

Kaal Sarp Dosha

• Occurs when all planets fall between Rahu and Ketu
• Brings obstacles, instability, or repeated struggles

Nadi Dosha

• Found during horoscope matching when both partners share the same Nadi
• Can cause compatibility or health issues in children

Pitru Dosha

• Results from unresolved ancestral karma
• Leads to family issues, lack of prosperity, or recurring struggles

Shani Dosha (Saturn Influence)
