Vedic relationship matching

Kundli matching and Porutham calculator

Compare sidereal Moon positions through eight Ashtakoota components, or select the named South Indian Porutham rules. The person order remains visible throughout.

Person 1 uses the traditional groom-side column; Person 2 uses the bride-side row. These are calculation roles you choose.

Person 1
Place coordinates

Coordinates locate the horizon and houses. The named time zone resolves the local clock.

Person 2
Place coordinates

Coordinates locate the horizon and houses. The named time zone resolves the local clock.

Sidereal and matching settings

Ashtakoota uses the Saravali tables. Exceptions add a separate reading and retain the original component points. Porutham uses Astro-Vision’s published counting rules; its three-section Rajju differs from the five-group Rajju view.

Example: Ashtakoota matching

Person 1: Uttara Ashadha, pada 1, Sagittarius. Person 2: Bharani, pada 4, Aries.

27 / 36 under the eight-component rubric.

Navamsa: the D9 relationship division

D9 maps each 3°20′ ninth of a sign into a complete sign. The continuous longitude is nine times the sidereal longitude, wrapped around 360°. Read the natal rasi and the D9 placement together. Saravali’s Parasara division table associates D9 with marriage; the seventh-house and Venus/Moon comparison below supplies a symbolic relationship reading.
