Why is my marriage delayed? Which dosha is responsible?

Delayed marriage is usually caused by Saturn, Rahu, or Ketu afflicting the 7th house or 7th lord, or by doshas like Manglik, Nadi, or Bhakoot. The timing improves when a favorable Dasha activates the 7th house.

Saturn is the biggest cause of marriage delay. If Saturn sits in the 7th house, aspects it, or aspects the 7th lord, marriage tends to happen later in life, usually after age 28.

Rahu in the 7th house can create confusion, unrealistic expectations, or repeated postponements in marriage decisions.

Doshas like Mangal Dosha or a weak Venus (for men) and Jupiter (for women) also contribute to delays in finding a suitable match.

Once the Dasha of the 7th lord or Jupiter (for women) and Venus (for men) begins, the delay usually resolves and marriage materializes.
