The 8 Kootas of Ashtakoota System
Each Koota evaluates a different dimension of compatibility. Total score is out of 36 points.
Varna Koota
Spiritual compatibility and ego levels
Varna refers to the spiritual or psychological type of a person. It assesses whether the spiritual evolution of both partners is compatible. A higher Varna score indicates harmony in spiritual inclinations and ego levels.
Vashya Koota
Mutual attraction and control
Vashya deals with the power equation and mutual attraction between partners. It determines whether one partner can influence and draw the other naturally. High scores indicate strong mutual pull and healthy interdependence.
Tara Koota
Health and longevity compatibility
Tara (also Dina) assesses the birth star compatibility, indicating the health and longevity of the relationship. Good Tara indicates that both partners will support each other's wellbeing and have a long, prosperous life together.
Yoni Koota
Physical and sexual compatibility
Yoni represents physical and intimate compatibility between partners. Based on the animal symbol assigned to each Nakshatra, it measures biological and physical harmony. High scores point to a fulfilling physical relationship.
Graha Maitri
Friendship between Moon sign lords
Graha Maitri evaluates the friendship between the lords of the Moon signs of both partners. It indicates intellectual compatibility, mutual respect, and mental harmony. This is critical for long-term emotional bonding.
Gana Koota
Temperament — Deva, Manushya, or Rakshasa
Gana categorizes people into three types: Deva (divine/calm), Manushya (human/balanced), and Rakshasa (fierce/intense). Compatible Ganas indicate harmony in temperament, values, and daily behavior patterns.
Bhakoot Koota
Financial and emotional compatibility
Bhakoot (also Rasi) is one of the most important Kootas, measuring the emotional and financial compatibility between partners. Certain Bhakoot combinations are considered inauspicious and can affect prosperity and progeny.
Nadi Koota
Health, genes, and progeny (most important!)
Nadi is the most critical of all 8 Kootas, carrying the highest points. It relates to the Ayurvedic constitution (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and genetic compatibility. Same Nadi is considered Nadi Dosha, potentially affecting progeny's health.

Why Kundali Matching Matters
Kundali matching, also known as Guna Milan, is one of the most important rituals in Indian marriages. For thousands of years, Vedic astrology has guided families towards harmonious unions. The practice continues to be followed by millions of families across India and the Indian diaspora worldwide.
The Ashtakoota system evaluates compatibility across 8 dimensions — from physical attraction and sexual compatibility to financial prosperity, emotional bonding, and genetic compatibility for children. Each Koota addresses a specific aspect of married life that matters over the long term.
Modern research is beginning to recognize what Vedic sages understood intuitively: that personality types, emotional temperaments, and Ayurvedic body constitutions can all affect long-term relationship compatibility. The Nadi Koota, for instance, relates to the Tridosha system of Ayurveda.
Whether you are a firm believer or approach it with curiosity, understanding your Kundali match score gives you valuable insight for one of life's most important decisions.
