Kundli Milan: Guna Milan by date of birth
Enter both birth details to get the 36-point Ashtakoot score, Moon sign (Rashi), Nakshatra and dosha check. Moon positions are calculated astronomically with the Lahiri ayanamsa used by Indian panchangs.
How the 36 gunas are counted
Ashtakoot matching compares the Moon positions of the bride and groom across eight factors (kootas):
- Varna (1): spiritual compatibility
- Vashya (2): mutual attraction
- Tara (3): destiny and well-being
- Yoni (4): physical compatibility
- Graha Maitri (5): mental compatibility
- Gana (6): temperament
- Bhakoot (7): love and prosperity
- Nadi (8): health and progeny
Traditionally, 18 or more is acceptable, 25 or more is very good and 33 or more is excellent.
Why the place of birth matters
The Guna score depends on the Moon's position, which is the same everywhere on Earth at a given moment, so for Guna Milan the place sets the correct local time zone. The place matters a great deal for the Lagna (ascendant), which changes sign about every two hours and depends on latitude and longitude. The Lagna is used for the Manglik check: Mars in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house.
Positions are calculated astronomically and checked against NASA JPL data: the Moon to within 20 arc-seconds and Mars to within 2 arc-minutes. Places are looked up with Open-Meteo's free geocoding service. Kundli matching is a traditional practice; for an important decision, please also consult a qualified astrologer.
