What happens behind the scenes

Everything starts from the Moon

Guna Milan compares the two Moon signs and birth stars. Each of the eight kootas (Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi) awards points from the classical tables, up to 36 in all.

Doshas come first

Nadi (8 points) and Bhakoot (7 points) carry the most weight. If either is in dosha, the verdict follows the stricter traditional rules, and the classical exceptions that cancel a dosha are checked for you.

Manglik for both

Mars is checked in houses 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 and 12 from the ascendant, the Moon and Venus, with the classical exceptions. When both partners are Manglik, tradition treats the dosha as cancelled for the match.

When a birth time is unknown

The Moon moves about one nakshatra a day, so every position it held that day is scored and you see the range, rather than a single guess.

Reading your results and tips

Reading your results

  • 18 of 36 is the traditional minimum, 25 or more is a strong match and 33 or more is excellent, provided there is no uncancelled Nadi or Bhakoot dosha.
  • Look at the low kootas as areas to nurture: Tara for well-being, Gana for temperament, Graha Maitri for mental wavelength.
  • If the verdict says a dosha is cancelled, a classical exception applies; most families then go ahead after reviewing both charts.

Tips

  • Use the exact birth times if you have them. Without them, the score can change by several points.
  • Guna Milan is one part of a traditional match; the two people matter most.
