☆☆☆☆☆ 4/5
Marriage, a simple word, has a highly complex existence in the world of astrology. There are so many planets that have to come together or part ways for the marriage lagna to even occur in a kundli.
The main planets that affect the marriage lagna are Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Sun, and Rahu and Ketu.
This guide about the delay in marriage astrology will take you through the role of all these planets in determining the time of marriage and also the many solutions to avoid a delay in marriage.
Planetary Alignments for Delay in Marriage
The first thing that you should know is that it is the 7th house in the birth chart that is the house for marriage. And Venus is the ruling planet of the 7th house. This ideal scenario – Venus in the 7th house – is for males. The ideal combination for females for marriage is Jupiter in the 7th house.
Now, wouldn’t it be simple if it was all about Venus and Jupiter? But, truth be told, it’s not just these two planets or the 7th House alone that decides the time of marriage. There are other planets and houses too.
- The position of Saturn, Sun, Mars, and Rahu and Ketu can cause a delay in marriage.
- The 8th House and the 12th House affect the marriage lagna as well.
Now, let’s talk about the delay in marriage astrology in terms of planets and their malice effects.
Sun and Delay in Marriage Astrology
Sun in the 7th house is not always the reason behind a delay in marriage. Remember, the Sun can delay a marriage only when it is very strong and is in the 7th house. So, if the sun in the 7th house is weak and some other planet that favors marriage – like Jupiter – is strong, then Jupiter will cancel the effects of the sun.
However, if the sun is strong in the 7th house, then it will get in a war with the other strong planet(s). That causes a delay in marriage.
Things to Remember
- Sun can cause a delay in marriage only if it’s the decisive planet in the 7th house.
- Sun cannot affect the time of marriage if a different planet in the 7th house is strong.
Saturn and Delay in Marriage Astrology
Saturn is the planet that is associated with the 7th house in a bad way, which will cause a delay in marriage. The intentions are not bad though.
- Saturn or Shani is not a harsh planet but it teaches the lessons of life in a harsh way.
- Remember, if Saturn is the planet that’s holding back your marriage, it means that the time to get married is not right. Meaning, you’re not ready for marriage.
Having said that, if Saturn results in delay, you’ll get married after the age of 32.

Mars and Delay in Marriage Astrology
Mars or Mangal, if in the Kundli, causes mangal dosh. If you have mangal dosh, the results of getting married at an early age or to a non-Manglik can be life-threatening for the spouse. If you have mangal dosh, it is advised to get married after the age of 28.
Rahu and Ketu and Delay in Marriage Astrology
Rahu and Ketu, if affecting the 7th house, can cause a delay in marriage. Having said that, a delay in marriage due to Rahu and Ketu can be removed by other strong planets or the Lords of Rahu and Ketu.
