Ardra and Pushya Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Ardra and Pushya, computed from the classical tables: 19.5 of 36 with Ardra as the groom's nakshatra, 19.5 of 36 the other way. Eighteen is the classical minimum for a workable match; the koota-by-koota breakdown below shows where the points come from. (Tradition frames the two directions as groom and bride — modern couples read them as either partner.)
Ardra groom · Pushya bride
19.5 of 36 gunas — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas.
| Varna / 1 | 0 — spiritual compatibility and shared values |
|---|---|
| Vashya / 2 | 1 — mutual attraction and the balance of influence |
| Tara / 3 | 1.5 — health, fortune, and the destiny of the union |
| Yoni / 4 | 2 — physical and intimate compatibility |
| Graha Maitri / 5 | 1 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 6 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 0 — emotional bond, prosperity, and family wellbeing |
| Nadi / 8 | 8 — health and progeny; the most weighted koota |
- The bride's varna outranks the groom's — worth exactly one point, the lightest koota of the eight.
- The vashya groups are partly receptive — influence flows, but unevenly.
- One direction lands on an inauspicious tara — classical texts read this as luck flowing unevenly between the two.
- The Dog and Sheep yonis are neutral toward each other — a rapport that grows with familiarity.
- Friendship runs one way and enmity the other — one partner naturally 'gets' the other more.
- Manushya groom with Deva bride sit close in temperament — small adjustments only.
- Bhakoot dosha: the Moon signs sit on the 2/12 (dwirdwadasha) axis — read as money strain and a sense of drain.
- Different nadis (Aadi and Madhya) — the heaviest koota is fully satisfied.

These scores compare the two Moons — the classical first pass. A real match also needs Mangal dosha (Mars's house from each Lagna and Moon), the exact padas, the seventh houses, and the dasha timing — all of which need full birth details. The app computes the complete picture, free.

Common questions
Are Ardra and Pushya compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 19.5 of 36 with Ardra as the groom's nakshatra and 19.5 the other way (18 is the classical minimum, 24+ strong). The final word belongs to the full charts — including Mangal dosha, which nakshatra tables cannot see.
How many gunas match between Ardra and Pushya?
19.5 of 36 gunas one way and 19.5 the other. Where a range appears, the exact score depends on each Moon's pada, because four of the eight kootas follow the rashi rather than the nakshatra.
Do Ardra and Pushya have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
No Nadi dosha — the two nadis differ. Bhakoot dosha applies: the Moon signs sit on a difficult axis.
