Origin & Story
Skanda Purana (Angaraka Stotram) · Sage Virupangiras (rishi of the mantra) · Puranic
The Angaraka Stotram is preserved in the Skanda Purana, with the sage Virupangiras named as its rishi, Agni as the presiding deity and Gayatri as its metre. It belongs to the family of planetary (Navagraha) hymns recited for graha-shanti — the pacification of the nine planets. Mars (Mangala) is described in the Puranas as Bhumiputra, the son of the Earth goddess, a fierce, red, four-armed warrior who rules energy, courage and land; this stotra gathers his most sacred names so that the reciter may win his grace and be freed from debt, disease and want.
✦ As told in scripture
The stotra's own phalashruti makes a bold promise — 'natra samshayah', 'of this there is no doubt': that one who constantly recites these names of Bhauma has his debt, misfortune and poverty destroyed, gains abundant wealth, a beloved wife and a son who brings glory to the lineage, and that all suffering caused by the planet Mars is surely dispelled.

Benefits of Chanting अङ्गारक स्तोत्रम्
Recites the celebrated names of Mangala (Mars) and is one of the foremost remedies (parihara) for an afflicted or malefic Mars in the horoscope.
Traditionally chanted for Rina-Mochana — release from debt, loans and financial bondage, as Angaraka is hailed as 'Rinaharta', the remover of debt.
Its phalashruti promises destruction of poverty (daridrya) and misfortune (daurbhagya), and the gaining of abundant wealth.
Said to bless the devotee with a loving spouse and a worthy son who brings lustre to the family lineage.
Recited to pacify Mangal Dosha (Kuja / Manglik affliction) and to remove obstacles in marriage, property and litigation.
Mars governs courage, energy, land and brothers — the stotra is invoked for valour, victory over enemies and good health, and it removes all graha-pida (planetary suffering).
Most powerful when recited on Tuesdays (Mangalavara) with offerings of red flowers.
How to Chant अङ्गारक स्तोत्रम्
Bathe and sit facing south or east before an image of Mangala or the Navagraha, with a ghee or sesame-oil lamp and offerings of red flowers (such as red hibiscus) and red sandal. First recite the viniyoga, then the verses of names, then the phalashruti. The stotra may be recited 11 or 21 times, and is especially fruitful on Tuesdays or through the period of an adverse Mars dasha or transit for relief from debt and Mangal Dosha.
