Porutham sheet

Magha × Ashwini

Bride: Magha · Simha (Leo) — Groom: Ashwini · Mesha (Aries)

Not enough to go ahead — Rajju does not match

5 of 10 agree in full, 1 more in part. Of the two that come first — Dina: Does not agree, but does not decide; Rajju: Does not agree.
The 4 that do not agree: Dina, Gana, Rasyadhipathi, Rajju.
By the northern reckoning it is 19 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 — 5 of 10 agree in full, 1 more in part

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 19, and the texts differ on that count.)
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	Agrees	¾	This goes with children and the growth of the household.
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	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	Agrees	1	This holds for family harmony and children. (Why: the distance between the two Moon signs is a favourable one.)
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	Agrees	½	This goes with attraction between husband and wife. (Why: in the vasya table one Moon sign draws the other, and one way is enough for this porutham.)
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: 5 of 10.

The thirty-six gunas — 19 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	5 / 5	The rulers of the two moon signs are natural friends, which goes with friendship between husband and wife.
Gana — disposition	0 / 6	One temperament is deva and the other rakshasa: an opposed pair for a marriage.
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	8 / 8	Husband and wife have different constitutions, which is what this one looks for.

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