Marriage is one of the most important milestones in life. While some people get married at the perfect time, others face unexpected delays, rejections, or confusion about choosing the right partner. According to Vedic Astrology, planetary positions play a major role in deciding when a person will get married.

As Ravishanker Guru Ji, with over 30 years of experience in horoscope reading and marriage astrology, I have seen thousands of birth charts where certain combinations clearly point toward marriage delay.

In this blog, you will learn the top signs in your horoscope that indicate late marriage and how astrology can guide you toward the right path.

⭐ 1. Saturn (Shani) Influence on the 7th House

Saturn is known for slowing down life events.
If Saturn is:

• In the 7th house

• Aspecting the 7th house

• Or placed with the 7th lord

…it often leads to late marriage.

Saturn brings maturity, responsibility, and delays — which means marriage happens after the age of 28–32+.

⭐ 2. Weak or Afflicted 7th Lord

The 7th lord represents marriage, spouse, and partnerships.
If the 7th lord is:

• Weak

• Retrograde

• Combust

• In the 6th, 8th, or 12th house

• Aspected by malefic planets

…it clearly shows marriage may not happen easily.

This is one of the most accurate signs astrologers like Ravishanker Guru Ji check first.

⭐ 3. Manglik Dosha (Mangal Dosha)

Presence of Mars in:

• 1st house

• 4th house

• 7th house

• 8th house

• 12th house

…creates Mangal Dosha, which often leads to relationship issues, broken proposals, and delayed marriage.

The stronger the Mars placement, the higher the delay.

⭐ 4. Rahu-Ketu Impact on the 7th House

Rahu and Ketu are shadow planets that create confusion, illusions, and karmic delays.

If Rahu or Ketu is placed in the 7th house, you may experience:

• Breakups

• Wrong partner choices

• Trust issues

• Repeated relationship failures

• Sudden marriage cancellations

This is a major astrological reason behind unexplained marriage delays.

⭐ 5. Strong 12th House Influence

The 12th house represents isolation, separation, and detachment.

If the 7th lord is placed in the 12th house, or if malefic planets strongly influence the 12th house, it often leads to:

• Not finding the right partner

• Fear of commitment

• Emotional distance

• Late marriage

⭐ 6. Venus (Shukra) Affliction

Venus is the natural planet of love, marriage, comfort, and relationships.
If Venus is:

• Weak

• Combust

• Retrograde

• Conjunct with malefics (Rahu, Ketu, Saturn, Mars)

…it can cause long delays in marriage and difficulty in choosing a partner.

⭐ 7. Strong Influence of the 6th, 8th, and 12th Houses

These houses are known as the Trik houses.

When the 7th lord or Venus gets connected to these houses, it results in:

• Obstacles

• Misunderstandings

• Relationship failures

• Social or family issues

• Delay in marriage

Best keywords: 8th house marriage problem, 6th house effect, late marriage signs
