Courage, conflict, land, brothers and accident. Read as the years of action, of contention, and of the body's heat.
Meaning
In the Vimshottari cycle the Mangala period runs for 7 years and colours everything that happens in it, whatever the birth chart promises otherwise. Its fruit is taken from the graha's own condition: its house, its sign, its dignity, its aspects and the yogas it forms, so that the same period is kind in one chart and hard in another.
