Tara Kuta Analysis is the classical horoscope-matching reading — the Ashta-Koota guna milan that scores two charts across eight kootas (36 points) before a marriage is agreed.
The Ashta-Koota system descends from the Muhurta and Samhita literature — the eight kootas (varna, vashya, tara, yoni, graha maitri, gana, bhakoota, nadi) encode different channels of compatibility. Northern astrologers have run this scoring for centuries; the 36-point tally became the household shorthand for a good match.
Traditionally both kundlis were drawn and the eight kootas compared one by one. A score above 18 was generally acceptable, 24+ good, 28+ excellent — with Nadi and Bhakoota treated as the weightiest gates.
| 1 | Varna — 1 point | The spiritual-class match — the signs are grouped brahmin, kshatriya, vaishya, shudra by nature; the groom's class must equal or exceed the bride's. |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Vashya — 2 points | Mutual influence — the signs classed as quadruped, human, aquatic, insect... reads how readily each partner yields to the other. |
| 3 | Tara (Dina) — 3 points | The birth-star count — the ninefold tara reckoned from each partner's star to the other's; it weighs day-to-day wellbeing and fortune together. |
| 4 | Yoni — 4 points | The animal-sign — the instinctive and physical compatibility of the pair, scored by how the two yoni animals relate. |
| 5 | Graha Maitri — 5 points | Friendship of the two moon-sign lords — the mental bond; whether the ruling planets are friends, neutral or enemies. |
| 6 | Gana — 6 points | The temperament match — deva, manusha, rakshasa natures of the two stars; the disposition gate of the northern system. |
| 7 | Bhakoot — 7 points | The moon-signs' mutual houses — 2-12, 5-9 and 6-8 placements flag; it weighs the emotional weather of the married life. |
| 8 | Nadi — 8 points | The heaviest gate — the pulse/hereditary channel (adi, madhya, antya); same-nadi pairs flag the classical Nadi dosha unless a cancellation applies. |
Provide the two birth details — date, time and place — and the module computes each moon sign and nakshatra, then scores every koota against the classical table. The breakdown shows each koota's points, not just the total.
Classically 18 of 36 is the pass mark; 24+ is considered good and 28+ excellent — with Nadi and Bhakoota carrying the most weight.
The heaviest koota (8 points) — same-nadi pairs flag a dosha. The tradition offers cancellations (same rasi but different nakshatra pada) that the reading notes.
No — they run 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 points respectively, so Nadi (8) outweighs Varna (1) eight-fold.
