Marriage Matching (Ashtakoota) with Rashi & Nakshatra

In Vedic Astrology, matching the Gunas (Qualities) is the first step in ensuring a harmonious marriage. This free online tool uses the Ashtakoota system (popular in North India and Deccan) to check compatibility between the Moon Signs (Rashi) and Stars (Nakshatra) of the couple.

Frequently Asked Questions & Glossary

Ashtakoota Melanam is the most popular compatibility method in Vedic astrology. It evaluates harmony across 8 parameters (Kootas) and assigns a total score out of 36 Gunas.

The 36 points are distributed among these 8 categories :
  1. Varna (1 point): Ego compatibility.
  2. Vashya (2 points): Mutual attraction and control.
  3. Tara (3 points): Destiny and luck factor.
  4. Yoni (4 points): Sexual and biological compatibility.
  5. Graha Maitri (5 points): Psychological friendship.
  6. Gana (6 points): Temperament (Deva, Manushya, Rakshasa).
  7. Bhakoot (7 points): Emotional bonding and family welfare.
  8. Nadi (8 points): Health and genetics (Most Critical).

Nadi Koota carries the highest weight (8 points). It relates to the physiological and genetic constitution (Ayurvedic Doshas - Vata, Pitta, Kapha).
If both partners have the same Nadi (Adi, Madhya, or Antya), it creates Nadi Dosha. This is considered risky for the health of the couple and the health of their future children.

Bhakoot (Rashi Guna) carries 7 points. It checks the relative position of the Moon Signs (Rashis).
Unfavorable positions like 6-8 (Shadashtaka) or 2-12 (Dwidwadasha) cause Bhakoot Dosha, which can lead to emotional disconnect or financial instability. However, this dosha is often cancelled if the Rashi lords are friends.

Yes, 18 is the passing mark. However, the distribution matters. Even with a high score, if Nadi Dosha or Bhakoot Dosha is present without cancellation, the match may not be recommended. Conversely, a lower score with good Graha Maitri and Nadi Shuddhi can be acceptable.
