PoruthamSignifiesVerdictWeightWhy
DinaHealth and longevityDoes not agree1This 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 16, and the texts differ on that count.)
GanaTemperament and dispositionDoes not agree1The tradition sees the two temperaments as pulling against each other in a marriage.
MahendraProgeny and prosperityAgrees¾This goes with children and the growth of the household.
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 progenyDoes not agree1This is the harder form, unsettled for family life. (Why: counting from the bride's Moon sign, the groom's is the 6th or the 8th.)
RasyadhipathiMutual understandingAgrees in part¾This counts in part for mutual understanding in the marriage. (Why: one sign lord counts the other a friend, and the other does not.)
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: 5⅝ of 10.

The thirty-six gunas — 5½ 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 influence0 / 2The two moon signs fall in unrelated groups, so this gives no points for mutual influence in 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 lords0 / 5The rulers of the two moon signs are natural enemies, so this scores nothing for friendship in the marriage.
Gana — disposition1 / 6One temperament is deva and the other rakshasa: an opposed pair for a marriage.
Bhakoot — the pairing of the moon signs0 / 7The distance between the two moon signs is one counted against a marriage, so this scores nothing.
Nadi — constitution0 / 8Husband and wife share one constitution, which is what Nadi dosha means.
