Mars remedies are kept on Tuesday: chant Om Kram Kreem Kraum Sah Bhaumaya Namah, donate red lentils (masoor dal), red cloth, and keep the weekday fast. Red Coral is the graha's stone, but it should only be worn once Mars has been established as a functional benefic for your lagna.
Mangal remedies are for temper, courage and the physical body — Mars is the graha of drive, and its afflictions are usually excess rather than lack. Hanuman worship is the most-prescribed of them, and Tuesday is the day it belongs to.
An ill-placed Mars shows as anger, accident-proneness, conflict with siblings, and impatience that costs more than it wins. The remedies aim to give that energy a channel rather than suppress it.
The mantra, the weekday fast and the charity are safe for anyone — they address Mars without amplifying it. Red Coral is not: a planetary gem strengthens whatever the graha is already doing, so it needs a chart reading first.
Tuesday. Fasting, charity and mantra japa for Mars all belong to that day.
The classical Sankhya is 10,000 repetitions, completed over weeks rather than at once. Begin with one mala — 108 — a day and build up; sincerity matters more than arithmetic.
Most charts should not wear Red Coral at all. It is prescribed only where the node's dispositor is strong, where it sits in an upachaya house, and for a specific purpose named by a qualified astrologer.
