Porutham sheet

Ashwini × Ashlesha

Bride: Ashwini · Mesha (Aries) — Groom: Ashlesha · Karka (Cancer)

Not enough to go ahead — Rajju does not match

2 of 10 agree in full, 2 more in part. Of the two that come first — Dina: Agrees; Rajju: Does not agree.
The 6 that do not agree: Gana, Mahendra, Rasi, Rasyadhipathi, Vasya, Rajju.
By the northern reckoning it is 26 of 36, which clears its line. The northern count has no rule that decides on Rajju alone, so the answer above stands.

The ten, one by one — 2 of 10 agree in full, 2 more in part

Porutham	Signifies	Verdict	Weight	Why
Dina	Health and longevity	Agrees	1	This goes with good health and a long life together for husband and wife. (Why: the count from the bride's star to the groom's falls in the favourable range.)
Gana	Temperament and disposition	Does not agree	1	The tradition sees the two temperaments as pulling against each other in a marriage.
Mahendra	Progeny and prosperity	Does not agree	¾	This porutham looks at children and the family's prosperity, and it does not agree here.
Stree Deergha	The wife's wellbeing and long life	Agrees in part	1	This counts in part for the bride's wellbeing in the marriage. (Why: the groom's star lies ahead of the bride's, though not by the full preferred count.)
Yoni	Physical compatibility	Agrees in part	1	This counts in part for physical understanding between husband and wife. (Why: the two animal symbols are neither the same nor natural enemies.)
Rasi	Family harmony and progeny	Does not agree	1	This does not hold for family harmony. (Why: counting from the bride's Moon sign, the groom's is the 2nd, 4th, 5th or 12th.)
Rasyadhipathi	Mutual understanding	Does not agree	¾	This shows up as differences in outlook between husband and wife. (Why: the lords of the two Moon signs are enemies of each other.)
Vasya	Mutual attraction	Does not agree	½	This counts for mutual attraction, and it does not agree here. On its own it should not decide the marriage. (Why: in the vasya table neither Moon sign draws the other.)
Rajju	Longevity of the marriage	Does not agree	1¾	This porutham, for the length of the marriage, does not agree, in the mildest of its five forms. (Why: both stars fall in Pada rajju, the foot.)
Vedha	Freedom from affliction between husband and wife	Agrees	1¼	The two stars do not obstruct each other, so this agrees for the marriage. (Why: the two stars are not one of the pairs that obstruct each other.)

Weighted total, for the astrologer: 3¼ of 10.

The thirty-six gunas — 26 of 36

Koota	Points	Why
Varna — the order of the two signs	1 / 1	The groom's group is not below the bride's, the order wanted here.
Vashya — mutual influence	0 / 2	The two moon signs fall in unrelated groups, so this gives no points for mutual influence in the marriage.
Tara — wellbeing	3 / 3	The count between the two stars is favourable both ways, which earns full marks for wellbeing in the marriage.
Yoni — physical compatibility	2 / 4	The two animal symbols differ but are not enemies: a middle score for physical compatibility in the marriage.
Graha Maitri — friendship of the sign lords	4 / 5	By natural friendship, one ruler is friendly and the other is not, so this scores in part for friendship in the marriage.
Gana — disposition	1 / 6	One temperament is deva and the other rakshasa: an opposed pair for a marriage.
Bhakoot — the pairing of the moon signs	7 / 7	The distance between the two moon signs is not one counted against a marriage, so this earns full marks.
Nadi — constitution	8 / 8	Husband and wife have different constitutions, which is what this one looks for.
