🔥 The Story of Mangal: The Warrior Planet of Courage, Action & Protection in Vedic Astrology
If the universe needed a protector—someone fierce, fearless, and always ready to defend what is right—that role would belong to Mangal. Known as Mars, he is the fiery warrior of the cosmos, the planet of strength, courage, discipline, and raw willpower.
While some planets speak softly, Mangal speaks with action. His story begins with fire… literally. 🔥
🌋 The Fiery Birth of Mangal Dev
According to Hindu mythology, Mangal was born from the blazing energy of Lord Shiva’s third eye. This wasn’t an ordinary birth—it was an explosion of divine power.
Shiva’s third eye represents truth, justice, destruction of evil, and unstoppable force. So Mangal inherited those qualities from the very first moment.
This is why Mars is known as:
🔥 The God of War 🔥 The Protector of Dharma (righteousness) 🔥 The Planet of Strength, Action & Discipline
He was born to fight for what is right, not for violence—but for protection.
⚔️ Mangal: The Defender of the Weak
As Mangal grew, he became a fearless warrior—strong, disciplined, and brave. He protected sages during their penance, kept the balance between good and evil, and stood firm even when the Devas and Asuras battled endlessly.
His presence brought confidence. His energy brought movement. His spirit brought justice.
In the cosmic army, he is the commander who runs forward without fear.
