What is Kundli Matching?

Kundli Matching is a traditional Vedic practice used to assess marriage compatibility. It compares the Moon's position in both charts and evaluates the match across eight dimensions using the Ashtakoota system, scoring the relationship out of 36 points.

What is Ashtakoota Guna Milan?

Ashtakoota Guna Milan is the 8-factor compatibility system in Vedic astrology. It measures Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot, and Nadi, adding up to a maximum score of 36 gunas.

How many Gunas are needed for a good match?

Scores from 18–23 are generally considered good, with 18 often treated as the minimum threshold for marriage. Higher scores are more auspicious, but other chart factors still matter.

Nadi Dosha occurs when both partners share the same Nadi. It carries the highest weight (8 points) and is watched closely for health and progeny. Shaastra also lists exceptions, and remedies are commonly advised when it appears — it is addressable, not a verdict.

Can Nadi or Bhakoot dosha be cancelled?

Yes — classical texts list cancellation (bhanga) conditions. Nadi Dosha is traditionally considered cancelled when partners share the same Rashi with different nakshatras, or the same nakshatra with different padas, among other conditions. Bhakoot Dosha softens when the Moon-sign lords are friends or the same planet. Daanyam's report flags both the dosha and common cancellations, but a marriage decision should confirm them with a qualified Jyotishi.

How important is birth time for kundli matching?

Very. Both charts are matched through each partner's Moon position, and the Moon changes nakshatra roughly every 24 hours — with pada shifts far more often. An uncertain birth time can flip Tara, Gana, or Nadi outcomes. If a birth time is approximate, treat borderline dosha flags cautiously and verify with a fuller chart reading.

Is kundli matching free? What does the Match Patrika add?

The full Ashtakoota score, koota-by-koota breakdown, and Nadi and Mangal dosha checks are free. The optional Match Patrika is a paid PDF report that adds combined chart analysis, dosha cancellation reasoning, remedial guidance framed as prescribed seva, and timing considerations for the match.

Is 18/36 a good score for Kundli Matching?

18/36 is generally seen as the minimum acceptable score. It can be a workable match, but it should be reviewed alongside other factors like Mangal Dosha, Nadi Dosha, and the 7th house lord.
