Not enough to go ahead
Rajju does not match
Both stars are in Kati rajju, the same group.
4of 10agree in full
2 more in part
4 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. (Why: both stars fall in Kati rajju, the waist.)
The North Indian way
16of 36 gunas
Families look for 18; this is below it.
The eight kootas and the doshas
By the northern reckoning it is 16 of 36, and that tradition reads it the same way.
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 lords4 of 5 · partly
By natural friendship, one ruler is friendly and the other is not, so this scores in part for friendship in the marriage.
Gana — disposition6 of 6 · full
Husband and wife share one temperament, which earns full marks here.
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 — constitution0 of 8 · none
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.
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
Pushya (bride)Anuradha (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
Kati (waist) (bride)Kati (waist) (groom)

For this pair
Pushya (bride)Anuradha (groom)
Count from the bride's star: 10

YoniPhysical compatibilityAgrees in partPoints: ½
For this pair
Sheep (bride)Deer (groom)
This counts in part for physical understanding between husband and wife. (Why: the two animal symbols are neither the same nor natural enemies.)

What it looks at
The sign the Moon was in at birth.
For this pair
Karka (Cancer) (bride)Vrischika (Scorpio) (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
Chandra (Moon) (bride)Sevvai (Mars) (groom)

VasyaMutual attractionAgreesPoints: 1
For this pair
Karka (Cancer) (bride)Vrischika (Scorpio) (groom)

For this pair
Pushya (bride)Anuradha (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.)
