  2. The 2 that do not agree: Mahendra, Vasya.
  3. By the northern reckoning it is 27 of 36, and that tradition reads it the same way.

The ten, one by one — 7 of 10 agree in full, 1 more in part

PoruthamSignifiesVerdictWeightWhy
DinaHealth and longevityAgrees1This 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.)
GanaTemperament and dispositionAgrees1Husband 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.)
MahendraProgeny and prosperityDoes not agree¾This porutham looks at children and the family's prosperity, and it does not agree here.
Stree DeerghaThe wife's wellbeing and long lifeAgrees1This goes with the bride's long life and wellbeing in the marriage. (Why: the groom's star lies well ahead of the bride's.)
YoniPhysical compatibilityAgrees in part1This counts in part for physical understanding between husband and wife. (Why: the two animal symbols are neither the same nor natural enemies.)
RasiFamily harmony and progenyAgrees1This holds for family harmony. (Why: the two Moon signs are the same sign, or directly opposite each other.)
RasyadhipathiMutual understandingAgrees¾This goes with mutual understanding in the marriage. (Why: on the porutham list, the lords of the two Moon signs are friends to each other.)
VasyaMutual attractionDoes not agree½This 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.)
RajjuLongevity of the marriageAgrees1¾This is the porutham most families weigh above all others, for the length of the marriage, and it agrees here. (Why: the two stars fall in different rajju groups, which is what it requires.)
VedhaFreedom from affliction between husband and wifeAgrees1¼The 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: 8¼ of 10.

The thirty-six gunas — 27 of 36

KootaPointsWhy
Varna — the order of the two signs1 / 1The groom's group is not below the bride's, the order wanted here.
Vashya — mutual influence1 / 2The two moon signs fall in neighbouring groups, which counts as a partial agreement for the marriage.
Tara — wellbeing1½ / 3The count is favourable one way and not the other, so this scores in part for wellbeing in the marriage.
Yoni — physical compatibility2 / 4The two animal symbols differ but are not enemies: a middle score for physical compatibility in the marriage.
Graha Maitri — friendship of the sign lords½ / 5By natural friendship, one ruler is hostile to the other, so this scores low for friendship in the marriage.
Gana — disposition6 / 6Husband and wife share one temperament, which earns full marks here.
Bhakoot — the pairing of the moon signs7 / 7The distance between the two moon signs is not one counted against a marriage, so this earns full marks.
Nadi — constitution8 / 8Husband and wife have different constitutions, which is what this one looks for.
