Manglik (Mangal dosha) check
check_manglikCheck if a person has Manglik dosha in their birth chart, including severity, trigger points, cancellations, and traditional remedies. Use for pre-marriage compatibility assessment.
Instructions
Returns a yes/no Manglik (Mangal / Mars dosha) verdict for ONE person's birth chart, with severity (none, mild, medium or high), which of the three classical reference points trigger it (Mars counted from the ascendant, from the Moon, from Venus), the classical cancellations that apply, and the traditional remedies for it. Use this for 'am I manglik / do I have mangal dosh' questions, and run it per person before a marriage discussion. It scores ONE chart -- for the two-chart compatibility score use get_kundli_match; for the Rahu-Ketu hemming dosha use check_kaal_sarp. Read-only deterministic computation (Swiss Ephemeris, Lahiri ayanamsa); no writes, no auth, at least 30 requests/min/IP per server instance, plus a shared engine budget of at least 60/min/IP across all engine-backed tools. Remedies are the classical prescriptions, reported as data and not as advice.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| place | No | Place as free text, "City, State, Country" -- e.g. "Jaipur, Rajasthan, India". Preferred input: it is geocoded to coordinates and an IANA timezone server-side, and any city worldwide works. Omit only if you pass latitude + longitude + timezone instead. | |
| latitude | No | Latitude in decimal degrees, -90 to 90, north positive (Delhi = 28.6139). Use only when `place` is omitted, and then longitude and timezone are required too. | |
| timezone | No | IANA timezone name, e.g. "Asia/Kolkata" or "America/New_York" (never an offset like "+05:30"). Required when latitude/longitude are used; ignored when `place` is given. | |
| longitude | No | Longitude in decimal degrees, -180 to 180, east positive (Delhi = 77.2090). Use only when `place` is omitted. | |
| birth_date | Yes | Birth date in the Gregorian calendar as YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. 1992-03-14. Years 1200-2400 only, and it must be a real calendar date (2023-02-29 is rejected). | |
| birth_time | Yes | Birth time on the local clock at the birth place, HH:MM in 24-hour format (00:00-23:59), e.g. 06:45 or 18:20. Not UTC. Required and not defaulted: the ascendant moves about one degree every four minutes, so a guessed time gives a guessed chart. |
