COMPATIBILITY ANALYSIS PURSUANT THE SYNASTARY OF KARMIC ASTROLOGY (GUNA MILAP ANALYSIS)

Compatibility analysis pursuant to the synastary of astrology is a powerful time-tested tool for measuring compatibility in marital matchmaking and commonly known as “Guna Milap” compatibility analysis in India. Because it is a prerequisite for formalization of a marital alliance nearly all popular Indian matrimonial sites offer it to users for an additional cost. However, the matrimonial site www.kundalimatrimony.com, and the dating platform www.zomatch.com are both based on the synastary of astrology and therefore offer this form of detailed compatibility matching to all users with all their matches at absolutely no cost. One’s birth-chart is the map of one’s accumulated karma, Guna Milap is in essence a measure of Karmic compatibility between two people. It entails compatibility matching of the 8 important astrological categories, (or Kootas), comprising of 36 total qualities or points, which are popularly known as “Gunas,” to find the match that compliments the individual the best. Guna Milap score is indicative of the amount of effort that it would take to enjoy each other’s company. The higher the score the less would be the effort required to enjoy each other’s company. Guna Milap score evaluates the energy levels, attitudes and interactive skills that the two individuals may bring to the particular interaction or relationship. Guna Milap score is a measure of compatibility only and not of the longevity of a relationship, which would require comprehensive study of birth-charts of both individuals. Guna Milap analysis is not generic sun-sign compatibility analysis, it is highly customized and birth-chart driven, therefore user’s birth details such as place, date and time of birth are required. (Guna Milap is also known as the “Ashta Koota Guna Milap” where “Ashta” means eight, “Koota” means category, “Guna” implies quality or point and “Milap” means matching. It therefore entails the matching of astro-points or qualities within the eight astro-categories between two individuals.)

What are the eight categories of Guna Milap?

Caste (Varna) Category – Up to 1 point (Guna) is allotted for this particular category (Koota)

The Caste (Varna) compatibility category is representative and indicative of issues related to ego and pride between the two individuals being considered. Varna means caste and, since the feminine energy is more flexible and receptive than the masculine, it is advisable for a woman to be of the higher caste.

Note: Readers are advised to understand that an individual categorized as “Brahmin” caste (Varna) is not necessarily any more or less Brahmin than another categorized as “Kshatriya” caste (Varna). Therefore, the Caste (Varna) classification measures compatibility only and is in no way indicative of the actual caste of the person.

Control (Vashya) Category – Up to 2 points (Gunas) are allotted for this particular category (Koota)

Vashya literally means control. The Control (Vashya) compatibility category indicates who between the two individuals will have more control. It evaluates and provides strong indication of the intensity of mutual affection, and attraction due to respect and liking for each-other`s views and opinions. Mutual attraction and liking for each others` views and opinions can create a strong bond between the individuals and help them overcome and overlook their general differences to some extent.

Star (Tara) Category – Up to 3 points (Gunas) are allotted for this particular category (Koota)

Tara literally means “Star” and the Star compatibility category represents receptivity of one partner to accept what the other has to offer, and evaluates the well-being of the two individuals on that basis.

Source (Yoni) Category – Up to 4 points (Gunas) are allotted for this particular category (Koota) Yoni implies “source” or “being” and can also be translated as the female sexual organ, as that represents the source of life. Source (Yoni) compatibility category defines how the individuals will react to each other during extreme stress or very intense situations including, but not limited to, during sex. Since, each constellation (Nakshatra) has an animal symbol; the Yoni (Source) therefore is the sexual organ of that animal. In times of extreme stress or during intense, passionate and forceful situations, animals tend to fall back on their instinctive nature which is depicted by the animal symbol of their constellation (Nakshatra). Source (Yoni) category is also indicative of the strength of bonding and contentment that stressful and intense situation including, and if applicable, sexual contact may bring the two individuals.

Planetary Friendship (Graha Maitri) Category – Up to 5 points (Gunas) are allotted for this category (Koota)

“Graha” means planet and “Maitri” means friendship. The Graha Maitri compatibility category therefore means “planetary friendship” category and it evaluates a whole bunch of criteria essential for compatibility; and a loving, enjoyable, fulfilling, and rewarding time together. This particular category (Koota) matches the two individuals` outlooks, aims and objectives, levels of wisdom and intellect, and as well as the spiritual aspects of their personalities and natures.

Species or Race (Gana) Category – Up to 6 points (Gunas) are allotted for this particular category (Koota)

“Gana” in this context implies race or even species, which are of three types, (1) the divine (Deva) category which are calm, kind, polite and steadfast and stand on even keel; (2) the human (Manushya) category are innovative and hard working, and (3) the demon (Rakshasa) category are explosive, unpredictable, and eccentric. The race or species compatibility category therefore evaluates the level of general adaptability and natural rapport between the two individuals, and indicates unpredictability, excitability, explosiveness. and volatility of the relationship by matching temperamental characteristics between them. It measures, to an extent, the possibility of happiness and contentment in the relationship. People from the same race or species will generally adapt to one another more readily than will those of different or opposing species or race.

Note: Readers are advised to understand that an individual categorized under the “Deva” (divine) race is not necessarily any more or less divine or demonic than another categorized within the “Rakshasa” (demon) race. Therefore, the race or species (Gana) classification measures compatibility only and is in no way indicative of the character of the person.

Moon (Bha) Category (Koota) – Up to 7 points (Gunas) are allotted for this particular category (Koota)

The moon category (Bha-koota) compatibility is an indicator of the relative position of the moon within the main zodiac. If the girl’s and boy’s moons are located respectively in the 2nd and12th, 5th and 9th and 6th and 8th houses to each other, the points then allotted are zero out of maximum of 7 points. However, if the location is any different than the aforementioned, then the points allotted are 7 out of a maximum of 7. This particular blemish (Dosha) can also affect intimacy between the two individuals. A 6-8 relationship between the moons of the individuals may cause excessive arguments, discord, and abrupt changes in their lives. A 2-12 relationship between the two moons may cause feelings of shortcomings, and problems and delays in having children. A 5-9 relationship may result in excessive competitiveness and an insatiable urge to be better than, and even out-do, the other! This particular category is also indicative of growth and welfare of the family, including the birth of children, and family interaction.

NOTE: Exception (only if applicable): If lords of the moon signs (Rashi) of the two individuals are friends, the moon category (Bha-koota) blemish is removed.

Pulse (Pulse) Category – Up to 8 points (Gunas) are allotted for this particular category (Koota)

The Pulse (Nadi) compatibility category sheds light on the health of the progeny, and genetic compatibility, of the two individuals being considered, and represents and indicates the physical health and general wellness of the individuals; by evaluating the nature of the faults in the life-forces or constitutions defined by the three imbalances (Doshas); namely Kapha, Vata and Pitta; that shape personality by affecting physiology as detailed in India`s holistic and classical system of medicine called Ayurveda. This particular compatibility category requires difference and diversity for compatibility. If both individuals being considered belong to the same class of imbalance, then that particular imbalance or fault will only be reinforced to the detriment of both. Therefore diversity of faults and imbalances (Doshas) will help minimize the effect of the imbalance in the relationship.

Exception (if applicable): The Pulse blemish (Nadi Dosha) however is canceled if both individuals are born in the same moon sign (Rashi), possess different birth-constellation (Nakshatra), and the birth-constellation of the male is situated before that of the female.
