Consideration for marriage
There are eight types of marriages e.g. 'brahya', 'daiva', 'gandharva' etc. If the bride and bridegrooms 'gotra' is the same, do not marry or else it is detrimental to son, modesty and religion. It is beneficial to marry a boy when his age is of odd years (23, 25, 27 etc.) and even (18, 20, 24 etc.) for a girl. If it becomes absolutely necessary to marry, then do it after 3 months of even years for a boy and after three months of odd years for a girl.
It is best to marry in the birth month, birth date, birth star, and birth day or birth lagna. Never marry the eldest son in 'jyestha' month. If a girl is predicted to get widowed at early age, then it is better to perform first, marriage with 'peepal'. 'Vishnu pratima' or ghat (kumbh) then marries any one. It is harmful to marry person of strong planet with that of weak planet ones.

Birthday
One should perform puja of ones' own deity, dev puja, Ganpati puja, Durga puja, Aswathama, Bali, vyas, Hanumanji, Markandeya, longlife, Nav- graha puja and Havan etc. on the birthday. On the birthday of your children make them perform puja in your own house or in the temple. Get a learned Brahmin and request him to pray for you. Also, chant 'Asato Maan sadgamay, tamso maan jyotirgamay'. O! Lord takes us from darkness to light and from untruth to truth.

Marriage Anniversary
On the marriage anniversary day husband and wife should perform the worshipping
of 'Laxmi-Narayan', Shiv-Parvati and other dev. This will bring marriage happiness, peace, congeniality, long life etc. as that is the way for mutual peace. This life is like flowing water and it will flow. In this life of struggle, it is of utmost importance to pray and pray.

Jwalamukhi yog
This is a harmful yog, as per Indian astrologers and knowledgeable people. For auspicious occasions this is not acceptable, but by chance this happens, one can not help. In Hindi there is a saying "Janme to jive nahin, base to ujade gaon, nari pahne churiyan purush vihina hoy, bove to kaate nahin, kunyey ujade niir." If one marries in this yog, one gets widowed and auspicious deeds do not succeed.
