Guna Milan: Key Part of Kundli Matching
In Vedic matchmaking, Gun Milan is done by comparing the kundlis across 8 aspects or Kootas, collectively called Ashtakoot. These 8 Kootas together give a compatibility score out of 36, also known as the Guna score.
Varna – Emotional Matching
Varna score is obtained by comparing the caste compatibility of two individuals. This component sheds light on their emotional compatibility.
Vashya – Influence & Control
This component of Kundli matching helps determine who will be more authoritative or influential in the relationship, and how that dynamic plays out.
Tara – Birth Star Compatibility
Also known as Tara Milan, this koot measures how compatible two people can be based on the strength of the relationship between their birth stars (nakshatras).
Yoni – Sexual Compatibility
Yoni koot analyses the couple's level of closeness, romanticism, sexual compatibility and shared love in the relationship.
Graha Maitri – Mental Compatibility
This koot determines a couple's affection and intellectual compatibility based on the friendship, neutrality or enmity between ruling planets.
Gana – Character Compatibility
Gana assesses personality and attitude, dividing individuals into Devata, Manushya and Rakshasa categories to see how their natures align.
Bhakoot – Peace & Understanding
Bhakoot measures harmony and financial stability between partners based on the distance between their Moon signs. Matching Moon signs often give better results.
Nadi – Health & Genetics
Nadi focuses on health and genetic compatibility by dividing nakshatras into Adi, Madhya and Antya categories, helping avoid hereditary issues.
Together, these 8 Ashtakoota factors are assigned points that sum up to a maximum of 36. This becomes the Gun Milan or compatibility score, which is also reflected in many online kundli matching and Gun Milan tools.
| Koota | Maximum Points |
|---|---|
| Varna | 1 |
| Vasya / Vashya | 2 |
| Tara / Dina | 3 |
| Yoni | 4 |
| Grah Maitri / Rasyadipati | 5 |
| Gana | 6 |
| Rashi / Bhakoota | 7 |
| Nadi | 8 |
| Total | 36 |
The Guna Milan Score for Ideal Marriage
