Kundli Matching or Guna Milan is the most integral aspect of every Hindu marriage. Hindu astrology lays strong emphasis on Janam Kundali Milan before a couple ties the knot to ensure a happy and long married life. Initially Kundali matching for marriage was done by a family priest or any Astrologer.
In Hindu tradition, Kundli Milan is a key ritual ahead of solemnizing a marriage. It is the process of matching horoscopes (birth-charts) of the bride and the groom to determine whether their stars are in harmony for a successful and happy marriage.
Often known as Horoscope matching, Janam Kundli milan, Patrimilan or Gun milan, Kundli match for marriage is based on many factors that come into play to determine the Kundali matching score also known as Gunas.
Planets and celestial bodies have a profound influence on the lives of every individual. So, when marriage joins two people, it is important to ensure that the heavenly bodies complement each other, resulting in peace, happiness and harmony in married life.
In India, the caste system is implemented according to the Vedic mythological system. There are four Varnas Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, and Shudra per the moon sign of the individual. Brahmin’s are the most superiors and Shudras are the inferior ones. Couples should have equal Verna for maximum compatibility or the boy’s Verna should be higher than the Girls Verna.
It signifies the ability to dominate or influence the other partner in the relationship. It directly relates to the control or power hold between the couple. It has 5 different classifications Chatushpada or the four-legged beings, Dwipad or Nara are the two-legged beings, Jalachars are the water beings, Vanachar are the wild beings, and the Keets are the insects. To score maximum compatibility, both boy and the girl should have a similar classification.
Dina or Tara Koot is related to the compatibility of the birth stars or the nakshatras. It holds three points in the Kundali matching system and relates to the wealth, prosperity, Longevity, and health aspects. The relationship between the birth stars is calculated to predict the destiny of the couples. The 27 Nakshatras are sub-categorized into 9 groups. Janam Tara, Sampat Tara, Vipata Tara, Kshema Tara, Pratyari Tara, Sadhaka Tara, Vadha Tara, Mitra Tara, and Ati-Mitra Tara are the 9 groups. Each group is divided into 3 categories Ashwani, Magha, and Moola.
Yoni Koot governs physical and sexual compatibility between the couple. It holds four points in the Ashtakoot Milan and relates to the intimacy in marital life. Physical compatibility in terms of satisfying the partner and meeting the sexual expectations of the partner is all the concern of the Yoni Koot. If the couple is not sexually compatible, it is considered Yoni Dosh. Yoni Dosha is the lack of connection and intimacy in the sex life of the couple.
Maitri Koot or Graha Maitri is related to the mutual bond of friendship between the couple. It helps to understand the intellectual and mental compatibility of the couple. It ensures to measure mutual respect, trust, loyalty, and clear communication between the couple by understanding their interests and likes and dislikes. It holds five points in the Guna Milan and relates to the planetary relationships of the couple.
Gana Koot holds six points in the Ashtakoot Milan and is related to the mythological division of the Nakshatras between three sub-categories Devata, Manushya, and Raksha. This is based on the temperament and the basic nature of the person. It helps in understanding the mental character and spiritual outlook of the pair. Couples belonging to the same Gana hold maximum compatibility points. Gana Dosh is when the couple shares different nature and temperament and scores minimum compatibility points. It creates issues in the marital life by making it difficult to adjust to the partner’s spiritual and mental outlook.
Bhakoot is the second most important category for matching the Kundali. It holds seven points and is related to the financial and career-related doshas in the horoscopes. Boy and girl belonging to the same Zodiac Signs or sharing the same planetary ruler are most compatible with each other. The difference in Bhakoot brings major marital issues which may end up in divorce between the couple.
This is the most important Koota, holding the maximum score of 8 points. Nadi has 27 Nakshatras in all, further divided into 3 sub-categories Adi, Madhya, and Antya. This Koota is related to the hereditary aspects of the couple. It shows the cycle of the genetic ability of the couple to give birth to a new life. Children of couples belonging to the same Nadi are more prone to mental and health diseases. Too much similarity in the Nakshatras can lead to their inability to produce a child. Nadi dosh may also result in the separation of the couple. The couple should belong to different Nadi’s for maximum compatibility score. Different Nadi’s reduce the risk of any health-related issues of both the couple and their children.
For marriage, Mangal dosha is given the most importance. All those who have a Mangal dosha in the kundli, those horoscopes are termed as manglik. There are many misunderstandings about the meaning of this. If mars is in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house in the birth chart then it is called Mangal dosha. If the boy is young who is of marriageable age and has Mangal dosha, this will hurt his bride, and if it a girl who has Mangal dosha and marries one without a dosha then it hurts the groom and give difficulties to him.
The Hora shastra has given a detailed explanation of this. If this dosha is present they will not be happy with a person who does not have a Mangal dosha. There are several remedies according to the Shastra siddhantas both need to have a Mangal dosha to have a happy life. Only if a marriage Is followed looking at this aspect then the couple will see growth and success.
