Not enough to go ahead
Rajju does not match
Both stars are in Pada rajju, the same group.
3of 10agree in full
2 more in part
5 do not agree
The rasi lords do not set this fault aside. Before deciding, have both full charts read together.
The key point
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.)
The North Indian way
20of 36 gunas
Families look for 18; this is above it. The northern count has no rule that decides on Rajju alone, so the answer above stands.
The eight kootas and the doshas
By the northern reckoning it is 20 of 36, which clears its line. The northern count has no rule that decides on Rajju alone, so the answer above stands.
Varna — the order of the two signs1 of 1 · full
The groom's group is not below the bride's, the order wanted here.
Vashya — mutual influence0 of 2 · none
The two moon signs fall in unrelated groups, so this gives no points for mutual influence in the marriage.
Tara — wellbeing3 of 3 · full
The count between the two stars is favourable both ways, which earns full marks for wellbeing in the marriage.
Yoni — physical compatibility2 of 4 · partly
The two animal symbols differ but are not enemies: a middle score for physical compatibility in the marriage.
Graha Maitri — friendship of the sign lords5 of 5 · full
The rulers of the two moon signs are natural friends, which goes with friendship between husband and wife.
Gana — disposition1 of 6 · partly
One temperament is deva and the other rakshasa: an opposed pair for a marriage.
Bhakoot — the pairing of the moon signs0 of 7 · none
The distance between the two moon signs is one counted against a marriage, so this scores nothing.
Nadi — constitution8 of 8 · full
Husband and wife have different constitutions, which is what this one looks for.
- Bhakoot dosha — present, and none of the classical exceptions clear it.
Eighteen of thirty-six is the line families use; the kootas above say more than the total.
The ten, one by one
Dina and Rajju come first. Tap any one for its reason.
DinaHealth and longevityDoes not agree, but does not decidePoints: 0
What it looks at
The count from the bride's star to the groom's; some counts are avoided.
For this pair
Ashwini (bride)Magha (groom)
Count from the bride's star: 10
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 10, and the texts differ on that count.)
The texts differ on this count, so it does not decide.
RajjuLongevity of the marriageDoes not agreePoints: 0
What it looks at
The two stars must not fall in the same one of five groups; families look at this first.
For this pair
Pada (feet) (bride)Pada (feet) (groom)
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.)

For this pair
Deva (divine) (bride)Rakshasa (fierce) (groom)

For this pair
Ashwini (bride)Magha (groom)
Count from the bride's star: 10
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.)
YoniPhysical compatibilityAgrees in partPoints: ½
For this pair
Horse (bride)Rat (groom)
This 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 progenyDoes not agreePoints: 0
What it looks at
The sign the Moon was in at birth.
For this pair
Mesha (Aries) (bride)Simha (Leo) (groom)
Place from the bride's rasi: 5
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.)
RasyadhipathiMutual understandingDoes not agreePoints: 0
For this pair
Sevvai (Mars) (bride)Surya (Sun) (groom)
This shows up as differences in outlook between husband and wife. (Why: the lords of the two Moon signs are enemies of each other.)
VasyaMutual attractionAgreesPoints: 1
For this pair
Mesha (Aries) (bride)Simha (Leo) (groom)
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.)
VedhaFreedom from affliction between husband and wifeAgreesPoints: 1
For this pair
Ashwini (bride)Magha (groom)
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.)
