Delay in marriage reason: Are there ways to overcome these problems?

There are four sanskaras in Hinduism; out of those, marriage sanskara is the third. A delayed marriage affects the luck, fortune, and life of the natives too. In order to sort the problem, you have to find out the delay in marriage reason in your kundali.  

Interestingly, other than planetary positions and dosha, the delay in marriage reason can be self-created too. 

In this guide, we will be discussing the astrological and self-made reasons for a delay in marriage. We will also be discussing the do’s and don’ts to avoid a delay in marriage, and much more. Dive in for all answers. 

Astrological reasons for a delay in marriage

As a believer of astrology, you must be aware that Saturn is responsible for a delay in marriage. Also, the affliction of Venus and Jupiter causes a delayed marriage. But, that’s not all, Amigos!

Some of the lesser-known but extremely significant delay in marriage reasons are as follows.

• The house lord of the 7th house is in an enemy house. 
• The malice effects of Mars, Rahu and Ketu (the shadow planet), and the Sun.
• The ascendant lord and the lord of the 7th house are weak. 

Self-made reasons for a delay in marriage 

Sometimes, you can’t put all the blame on planets and houses. It might be you who is creating a delay in marriage. Taken aback? Well, don’t be! Here are some reasons that cause a delay in marriage. 

• You’re so focused on your career that you avoid everything else. 
• You procrastinate things, even your own marriage. 
• You believe that marriage will be the end of your career. Hence, you try to intentionally stall the wedding.  

Effects of a delay in marriage: Why should you be concerned?

Yet again, we will touch the aisles of both astrological and general ill-effects of a delay in marriage. Let’s get started!

Astrological effects of a delayed marriage

• Some auspicious dashas begin only after marriage. If your marriage gets delayed, you might miss out on luck and fortune that could otherwise have been yours. 
• A life partner shares a karmic bond with you. When there’s a delay in marriage, the bond doesn’t complete. It might bring bad luck and all sorts of sorrows. 

The 9th house in astrology is the house of fate and good luck. For some people, the full effects of this house of luck can be untapped only after marriage. So, if the marriage is delayed, the natives will not get gains.

General effects of a delay in marriage

• You might not be able to sire children. There might be problems in conceiving. 
• There’s immense pressure from society. Your family might consider you a burden or a cause of embarrassment. 
• You yourself might get depressed and lonely. 
• It can affect your mental health. 

Things to do and not do if you want to get married 

Whether the delay in marriage reason in your natal chart’s planetary or self-made, there are do’s and don’ts that will help. Let’s have a look!

Do’s if you want to get married at the right age 

• Seek the help of an astrologer to find out the effect of planets in your 7th house. Once you find out which planets are causing a delay, follow the advice of your astrologer.
• A marriage astrologer will suggest which dashas are best to find your life partner. Do follow the advice sincerely.
• Worship lord Krishna and Lord Shiva. 
• Chant Venus beej mantra and Jupiter beej mantra to strengthen these planets.
• Fast on Mondays and offer jal and milk to a Shivlinga.
• Feed green, fresh fodder to cows. 
• Do wear a high-carat yellow sapphire stone after energizing it. 

Don’ts if you want to get married at the right age

• Don’t stall marriage plans because of your career. 
• Don’t have unrealistic expectations. Set your expectations right and don’t be too picky. If you keep on rejecting good marriage proposals, you might not get married for a long, long time. 

How do astrologers help if your marriage is getting delayed?

There are basically two steps: first is the identification of the delay in marriage reason and second is its remedy. 

Let’s take you through both the steps so that you can understand why taking the help of an astrologer might make all the difference!

Identification of reasons:

Your astrologer will read your birth chart to identify the planetary positions and dashas that might be resulting in a delay in your marriage. 

The dasha that you should be concerned about are as follows:

• The 7th house and the 7th house Lord and terribly weak and under the merciless grip of enemy planets.
• The 5th house is so strong that the 7th house becomes weak in front of the 5th house. This combination results in a live-in relationship that just doesn’t progress towards a marriage despite genuine efforts.
• Rahu in the 7th house has the support of any two malice planets.
• Moon is in the 7th house and is badly afflicted.

Only an astrologer can identify these dashas in your kundali. And only when the exact reason is identified that a customized remedy just for you can be used to remedy a delay in marriage. 

Remedies for delay in marriage:

• Performing a Graha Shanti puja.
• Performing a Rudrabhishek Puja.
• Worshiping the malice planets to please them so that they reduce their ill effects.
• Worshiping the lords of the planets that are causing hindrance in your marriage. When the lords of those planets bless you, you will be freed from all the ill effects.

Concluding Thoughts:

Getting married is a very important aspect of life. Only your life partner can complete you in every sense. Besides, sometimes, your luck will unlock only after marriage. 

So, the first thing that’s of quintessential importance is to identify the exact marriage in delay reason. Only then can you expect relief.

We hope that this guide has answered all your questions about the delay in marriage reason and has opened numerous ways in which you can overcome the problems.
