Porutham sheet

Magha × Ashlesha

Bride: Magha · Simha (Leo) — Groom: Ashlesha · Karka (Cancer)

Not enough to go ahead — Rajju does not match

3 of 10 agree in full. Of the two that come first — Dina: Does not agree, but does not decide; Rajju: Does not agree.
The 7 that do not agree: Dina, Mahendra, Yoni, Rasi, Rasyadhipathi, Vasya, Rajju.
By the northern reckoning it is 15 of 36, and that tradition reads it the same way.

The ten, one by one — 3 of 10 agree in full

Porutham	Signifies	Verdict	Weight	Why
Dina	Health and longevity	Does not agree	1	This porutham is about health and stamina in the marriage. It does not agree here, but it does not decide the match. (Why: from the bride's star to the groom's the count is 27, and the texts differ on that count.)
Gana	Temperament and disposition	Agrees	1	Husband and wife share one temperament: two people who will not have to work to understand each other. (Why: both stars are in the same gana, the temperament group.)
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	1	This goes with the bride's long life and wellbeing in the marriage. (Why: the groom's star lies well ahead of the bride's.)
Yoni	Physical compatibility	Does not agree	1	This porutham looks at physical understanding between husband and wife, and it does not agree here. (Why: the two stars carry animal symbols that are 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 — 15 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	0 / 4	The two animal symbols are sworn enemies, so this scores nothing for physical compatibility in the marriage.
Graha Maitri — friendship of the sign lords	5 / 5	The rulers of the two moon signs are natural friends, which goes with friendship between husband and wife.
Gana — disposition	6 / 6	Husband and wife share one temperament, which earns full marks here.
Bhakoot — the pairing of the moon signs	0 / 7	The distance between the two moon signs is one counted against a marriage, so this scores nothing.
Nadi — constitution	0 / 8	Husband and wife share one constitution, which is what Nadi dosha means.

Bhakoot dosha — present, and none of the classical exceptions clear it.
Nadi dosha — present, and none of the classical exceptions clear it.
