Nakshatra matching is a critical part of Vedic marriage compatibility. Your Janma Nakshatra (birth star) — determined by the Moon's position — reveals your personality, health, and destiny.

⭐ The 27 Nakshatras & Marriage

Ashwini, Bharani, Krittika (Aries-Taurus): Energetic, independent. Rohini, Mrigashirsha, Ardra (Taurus-Gemini): Romantic, communicative. Punarvasu, Pushya, Ashlesha (Cancer): Nurturing, intuitive. And so on through Magha, Purva/Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Vishakha, Anuradha, Jyeshtha, Mula, Ashadha, Shravana, Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha, Bhadrapada, Revati.

🔍 Tara Koota (3 Points in Guna Milan)

Tara matching counts from bride's to groom's Nakshatra and vice versa. Positions 1, 3, 5, 7 are auspicious (Janma, Kshema, Sadhana, Mitra). Positions 2, 4, 6, 8 are inauspicious. Both directions must be checked.

🌙 Nadi Dosha — Critical Check

Nadi is the most important Kuta (8 points). If both partners share the same Nadi (Adi, Madhya, or Antya), it is called Nadi Dosha and scores 0. This is serious — associated with health issues in children. Exceptions exist based on different Lagna or Nakshatra. Always consult a Jyotishi for Nadi Dosha.
