Not enough to go ahead

3of 10agree in full

2 more in part

5 do not agree

Before deciding, have both charts read in full.

The key point

At least five must agree in full.

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 compatibility3 of 4 · partly

The two animal symbols are friendly to each other: a high 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 — disposition5 of 6 · partly

One temperament is deva and the other manushya, a pairing that works in 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 — 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.

  1. 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

    Hasta (bride)Uttara Phalguni (groom)

    Count from the bride's star: 27

    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.)

    The texts differ on this count, so it does not decide.

  2. RajjuLongevity of the marriageAgreesPoints: 1

    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

    Kanta (neck) (bride)Nabhi (navel) (groom)

    This 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.)

  3. GanaTemperament and dispositionAgrees in partPoints: ½

    For this pair

    Deva (divine) (bride)Manushya (human) (groom)

    A Deva bride with a Manushya groom is accepted: not the ideal pairing, but no obstacle to the marriage.

  4. MahendraProgeny and prosperityDoes not agreePoints: 0

    For this pair

    Hasta (bride)Uttara Phalguni (groom)

    Count from the bride's star: 27

    This porutham looks at children and the family's prosperity, and it does not agree here.

  5. Stree DeerghaThe wife's wellbeing and long lifeAgreesPoints: 1

    For this pair

    Hasta (bride)Uttara Phalguni (groom)

    Count from the bride's star: 27

    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.)

  6. YoniPhysical compatibilityAgrees in partPoints: ½

    For this pair

    Buffalo (bride)Cow (groom)

    This counts in part for physical understanding between husband and wife. (Why: the two animal symbols are neither the same nor natural enemies.)

  7. RasiFamily harmony and progenyDoes not agreePoints: 0

    What it looks at

    The sign the Moon was in at birth.

    For this pair

    Kanya (Virgo) (bride)Simha (Leo) (groom)

    Place from the bride's rasi: 12

    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.)

  8. RasyadhipathiMutual understandingDoes not agreePoints: 0

    For this pair

    Budha (Mercury) (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.)

  9. VasyaMutual attractionDoes not agreePoints: 0

    For this pair

    Kanya (Virgo) (bride)Simha (Leo) (groom)

    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.)

  10. VedhaFreedom from affliction between husband and wifeAgreesPoints: 1

    For this pair

    Hasta (bride)Uttara Phalguni (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.)
