• The Most Common Ashtakoota Kundali Matching Explained

Moon is Very important in Horoscope compatibility for marriage. Moon is the significator of Mind, our taste and temperament. So the Moon Nakshatra or the janma Nakshatra of both boy and girl should be checked for marital bliss. This compatibility of Janma Nakshatra is known as Ashtakoota Milan. Ashtakoota means eight points which need to check during Horoscope compatibility for marriage.

1. Varna Koota- Marks Alotted 1
2. Vashya Koota- Marks Alotted 2
3. Tara Koota- Marks Alotted 3
4. Yoni Koota- Marks Alotted 4
5. Graha Maitri Koota- MArks Alotted 5
6. Gana Koota- Marks Alotted 6
7. Rashi Koota- Marks alotted 7
8. Nadi Koota- Marks alotted 8

Varna Koota– This Koota represents the degree of Spirituality in the couple. The twelve Rasis are divided into four categories of Varnas. 1. Brahmin is the highest, then Kshatriyas, then Vaishyas and the last is Shudras. Varna of Groom should be either equal to or superior to
that of bride. For this one mark is given. In case of a bride marrying a bridegroom of inferior Varna (caste), no mark is given i.e. score is 0.

Vashya Koota– All the signs of zodiac are devided in to five Vashyas(categories) as
follows.
I. Chatuspada or quadruped : – Aries, Taurus, 2nd half of Sagittarius and first half of Capricorn.
2. Dwipada (Manushya or human) :- Gemini, Virgo, Libra, first half of Sagittarius and Aquarius.
3. Jalchar Rasi :- Cancer, 2nd half of Capricorn and Pisces.
4. Banachar Rasi (Roaming in forest) :- Leo.
5. Keet Rasi :- Scorpio.
If bridegroom and bride belong to the same Vaishya, it is ideal and scores 2 full marks.

Tara Koota– Tarakoota clearly indicate the mental compatibility between Bride and groom. Count the number of Janma Nakshatra of bride from the Janma Nakshatra of Groom
and the result is divided by 9. If the remainder is 3, 5 or 7 then it is inauspicious and score is 0; otherwise benefic and score is one and half. Again count the Janma Nakshatra of groom from the Janma Nakshatra of bride and the result is divided by 9. lf the remainder is 3, 5 or 7 then 1t IS inauspicious and the score is 0 other wise benefic and score is one and half. If both are benefic then score is 3, if one is benefic and another is malefic then score is one and half and if both are malefic then score is 0.

Yoni Koota– It indicates Sexual compatibility of couple. If Yoni Kootas of both bride and groom are same the result will be favorable. If Yoni Kootas are different then result will be enmity between the couple.

Grahamaitri Koota- From this Koota friendship between the Rasi Lords of both the bride and the groom are judged.

Gana Koota- Nakshatras have been divided into three categories-Deva Ganas, Manushya
Ganas and Rakshasa Ganas. Marriage between Sama Gana is most auspicious. After that Dev Gana-Manushya gana, Dev Gana-Rakshash gana and Rakshasa Gana- Manushya Gana is worst. It is a general belief that if a Rakshas Gana girl and a Manushya Gana Boy gets married, the boy will die. But this is completely baseless.

During Kundali matching: Gana is given too much importance. It simply signifies whether the person is of tradition or liberal mindset.

Must Read Misconception and fear about Rakshas Gana

Rashi Koota or Bhakoot Koota-Examine the position of Janma Rasis in the horoscopes of both the bride and the groom. If they are located mutually in 2/12 or 6/8 or 5/9 positions, this is treated as malefic and no point or mark is given. For location in other places full 7 marks are given. 2/12 position indicates poverty, 5/9 indicates loss of children and 6/8 placement indicates death.

Nadi Koota-The nakshatras are divided into three groups called 1. Adi Nadi 2. Madhya Nadi 3. Antya Nadi. Marriage is not compatible when the Janma Nakshatras of both the bride and the groom are the same. It scores 0 marks. If nakshatras are dissimilar it scores full 8 marks.

Ashtakoota Kundali matching only consider the Moon Nakshatra. It completely Ignores the Ascendant, Sun and other planetary combination. Venus is the Significator for marriage but it also ignores it. How can a person with Weak Venus and 7th house lead a happy married life with Matching of  Moon Stars.

Deep study of birth charts are more important than Ashtakoota score. If the both chart promises long life with health and happiness, even if Matching score is low, marriage will completely satisfactory.

• 6 Important Factors must consider during Janam Kundali Matching for marriage

1. Longevity : We must check the longevity of both bride and groom before starting of Horoscope matching. What is the meaning of marriage if the boy or the girl is short lived.
2. Health : Health is wealth. We must judge the Health prospect of both. We must see if there is any possibility of incurable disease very soon or not. Couple with poor health can not enjoy the married life.
3. Finance : It is better to cry in a Mercedes than open foot path. Money is an important factor for living a good life. Poverty will bring miseries and will destroy the happiness of married life. So we must check during kundli matching that no Horoscope should have Poverty Yogas or daridra Yogas.
4. Future : One might born poor. But the future may be much promising. In such case we must inform about the bright future of the couple and marriage should be recommended if other factors are suitable.
5. Children: As the trees look beautiful with flowers and fruits, similarly married life becomes complete with children. When we judge the Horoscope compatibility for marriage, this is an important factor which we should keep in our mind. No Horoscope should have any affliction to child birth. Even if there is slight affliction in one chart, the other chart must compliment and supersede the affliction.
6. Mutual Understanding: One may have long life, lot of money, sound health but if there is no mutual understanding between the couple, the married life becomes hell. So astrologers must see the mutual harmony between the boy and girl during Kundali matching. The Planets should be placed harmoniously specially Venus, Mars Jupiter and Rahu. If theer is no harmony how the couple will face the ups and downs of life.

These 6 factors are more important than the Moon star matching.

• Love Marriage Compatibility

Venus is the significator of Love and Romance and marriage. It is the significator of Wife in a males chart and Jupiter is the significator of husband in a females chart. So Venus and Jupiter should not be weak. Mars is the significator of Boy friend in a girls Horoscope. Mars also signifies aggression. So if the Jupiter is well placed in a female chart, it indicates that she will get a wise and educated husband. Now if the position of Venus and Mars in two chart i.e the position of Venus in one chart with respect to the position of Mars in another chart, is opposite to each other or in same sign, will have great physical love. Both the charts are fully compatible for Love and romance. For example- suppose a boy is having Venus in scorpio and a girl is having mars in scorpio, both will enjoy great physical love among them.

• Kundali Matching:Manglik Dosha

If Mars is posited in Lagna, 12th, 4th, 7th and 8th house of a Horoscope, The individual is said to be Manglik. There has been a thought that if bride is mangalik and if she marries a non mangalik groom, death of her husband may occur and similarly if a mangalik groom marries a non mangalik bride, it will cause death to bride. But it is not Correct.

4th, 7th, 8th, and 12th house of Horoscope are related Marriage. Mars is the significator of energy and strength and its position in the houses (1st, 4th, 7th 8th, and 12th) related to marriage enhances the sexual potentiality of the native. If a groom of high sexual potentiality is married to a bride of low sexual strength, their conjugal lives will be highly disturbed.
That is why the marriage of a Mangalik bride with mangalik groom is considered to be best matching because both of them have equal sexual potentiality. So we should not be scared of Maglik dosha during the Kundali matching.

Among all the position, if Mars is placed in the 8th house and it is also afflicted, it can cause havoc to married life. This is specially detrimental for females as 8th house is known as the mangalsthan(the longevity of husband) for girls. But if this Mars is not afflicted or in own house or aspected by jupiter, it will not do much harm.
