Jyotisha · matching
Thirty-six gunas across eight kootas, computed from both birth charts, with Mangal Dosha checked from Lagna, Moon and Venus. The koota breakdown matters more than the total — the page shows both.
Please read this. A compatibility score is not a judgement on a person, and it is not consent. If a number is being used to pressure you or someone else into or out of a marriage, that is a misuse of the tradition. For a second reading on temperament rather than circumstance, try numerology name matching.
Conventionally 18 out of 36 is treated as the minimum for a match, 24 and above as good, and 32 and above as excellent. But the total hides more than it shows: 18 points made up of a full Nadi and a failed Bhakoot is a very different chart from 18 made up of small deductions everywhere. Read the koota breakdown, not just the number.
Nadi carries 8 points and Bhakoot 7 — together nearly half the total. Nadi is read as constitutional compatibility and a Nadi dosha traditionally raises concerns about progeny; Bhakoot concerns the Moon-sign axis and is read for prosperity and family harmony. Classical texts also give exceptions that cancel both in specific configurations, which is why a couple should never be refused on a single failed koota alone.
No, and no serious astrologer claims it is. Guna Milan is based almost entirely on the Moon's nakshatra in each chart. It says nothing about the seventh house, the strength of Venus and Jupiter, dasha timing, or the two people's actual compatibility as adults. It is one input. Use it to know what to talk about, never as a veto over a person.
Mars in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house — from the Lagna, the Moon or Venus — is read as Manglik, and it is very common. Traditionally it is held to bring friction and heat into married life, and it is considered largely neutralised when both partners have it. It is also, unfortunately, the single most exploited item in Indian astrology. We report the exact rule that fired and the severity, and nothing here recommends an expensive remedy.
Yes. The koota calculations depend on the Moon's nakshatra, which changes roughly every day, and Mangal Dosha depends on houses, which depend on the ascendant and therefore on the minute. Approximate times produce an approximate match — if one time is a guess, treat the result as indicative only.
Guna Milan reads two birth charts and needs date, time and place for both. Numerology name matching reads temperament from names and dates alone. They answer different questions and they disagree often — which is useful. If both are available, run both and pay attention to where they differ.
