What Makes the Marriage Life Work?

The answer to what can make your marriage work lies in the Ashtakoota Chakra. Hence, you can read this article to learn more about it. 

“Love is an ideal thing, marriage a real thing.” While people in love view the world with rose-tinted glasses, marriage is when the reality kicks in. No matter how deeply a couple is in love, making the marriage life work in the real world takes conscious effort and the support of the stars. This is why many couples go for Kundali Matching by Name before taking the plunge even if it is a love marriage to ensure a successful married life in the long run. 

Kundali matching by name, also known as Guna Milan reveals about your married life with your partner. Astrology experts use the Ashtakoota Chakra method to analyze your compatibility with your prospective partner (using your and your partner’s names) so you can comprehend what makes your marriage work.

Let us look at it in more detail. 

Ashtakoota Chakra to Make the Marriage Work

Ashtakoota Chakra is a proven method of astrological matchmaking. In this method, an astrologer compares your names based on the name constellation and the Moon zodiac to score your compatibility (called Koota). There are 8 Kootas and 36 Gunas (or points) in total. For a marriage to work, you and your partner must score good points, i.e., at least 18 Gunas (total) in these Kootas.

Let us explain each of these 8 Kootas one by one. 

1. Varna 

Varna is the first of the eight Kootas where partners must score well for a successful marriage. It analyzes your work compatibility and if you are compatible with each other when it comes to work characteristics, you get 1 (maximum) Guna. However, if your Varnas are not compatible or you have Varna dosha, astrologers suggest that you chant mantras, conduct Graha Shanti, and donate items (for example, food, clothes, etc.,) to the needy to eliminate Varna incompatibility. 

2. Vasya 

Vasya tests each sign’s controllable power. Each zodiac sign has a specific nature or controllable power. A maximum of 2 points are added to your Guna score if you have compatible zodiac controllable powers. However, your astrologer may suggest some remedies if you have an unbalanced power equation or incompatible Vasya. 

3. Tara 

Tara is the start your astrologer arrives at after performing calculations using your and your partner’s constellations. It represents your mutual understanding, luck, sensibility, and fitness. A maximum of 3 points are added to your score if your Taras match well. However, remedies, as suggested by an astrology expert, can help reduce the Tara incompatibility. 

4. Yoni 

Every Nakshatra has one animal (Cow, Dog, Cat, Rat, Horse, Lion, Sheep, Snake, Buffalo, Tiger. Elephant, Deer, Mongoose, or Monkey) assigned to it. The animal allocated to a Nakshatra determines how partners behave with each other after marriage. For example, if a cat marries a dog, their married life may not be smooth, as cats and dogs are known for their constant fights. You can add a maximum of 4 points to your Guna score if your Yonis are compatible with each other. 

5. Graha Maitri 

All rising signs have a planet lord. Analyzing the Graha Maitri or the compatibility between the rising lords of partners offers insight into whether or not they are mentally compatible with one another. Moreover, it indicates your affection, natural friendship, and family bonding. You can add 5 points to your score if your Grahas match well. 

6. Gana

Every constellation division is called a Gana. There are three Ganas in the Ashtakoota system, Deva, Manava, and Rakshasa. Gana compatibility is assessed to judge your desire, mutual interest, affection, and the ability to save and maintain your relationship. You can add a maximum of 6 points to your Guna score if your Gana matches well. 

7. Bhakoot 

Also known as the Rashi, Bhakoot is the planetary position in various houses of the boy’s chart with respect to the girl’s chart. It depicts the emotional attachment and love in your life after marriage. Bhakoot compatibility is checked considering twelve zodiac signs and the marriage is approved if your signs are compatible with one another. If you have compatible signs, you can add 7 points (maximum) to your Guna score. 

8. Nadi 

Nadi represents your sensual love compatibility, physical and mental health, and childbirth. There are three nadis, namely Aadi Nadi (Vata), Madhya Nadi (Pitta), and Anthya Nadi (Kapha). Astrology experts opine that those belonging to similar nadi must not marry each other, as their children may experience mental and physical issues. However, if your nadis are compatible, you get a maximum of 8 points added to the Guna score.
