So I googled Manglik I didn't know what that was and there was a Wikipedia article about this subject.

This is what I found.

From Wikipedia: A person born in the presence of this condition is termed a manglik. This condition is astrologically believed to be unfavourable for marriages, causing discomfort and tension in relationship, leading to severe disharmony among the spouses and eventually to other bigger problems.

Huh? Really!? (sarcastic tone) Well how do you solve it?

...negative consequences for a single-manglik marriage can be resolved if the manglik first performs a ceremony called a kumbh vivah, in which the manglik "marries" a banana tree, a peepal tree, or a silver or gold idol of the Hindu God Vishnu.

So you solve it through marrying a banana tree? Well at least you'll don't have to worry about your husband breaking his rehit.

From Brittanica: Tree marriage was once widespread in India.

This isn't funny anymore (serious tone). So what does sikhi say about these things?

This is what I personally think sikhi says:

There is nothing good or bad. Thinking just makes it so.

About tree marriages there is nothing right or wrong. This video explains much further about this subject.

In this picture the woman fasts for the man's better health. But the boy takes a passage about fasting for better health in the SGGS. Don't know exact source though. But you get the idea...

So about marriage what should you watch out for? We'll Watch these videos in any order. Do your "kumbh vivah" by doing amrit vela, seva and creating a balance and uplifting yourself.
