Ashwini and Jyeshtha Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Ashwini and Jyeshtha, computed from the classical tables: 12 of 36 with Ashwini as the groom's nakshatra, 13 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.)
Ashwini groom · Jyeshtha bride
12 of 36 gunas — Moderate — several frictions to navigate consciously.
| Varna / 1 | 0 — spiritual compatibility and shared values |
|---|---|
| Vashya / 2 | 1 — mutual attraction and the balance of influence |
| Tara / 3 | 3 — health, fortune, and the destiny of the union |
| Yoni / 4 | 2 — physical and intimate compatibility |
| Graha Maitri / 5 | 5 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 1 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 0 — emotional bond, prosperity, and family wellbeing |
| Nadi / 8 | 0 — 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.
- Counting the stars in both directions lands on auspicious taras — fortune supports the pair both ways.
- The Horse and Deer yonis are neutral toward each other — a rapport that grows with familiarity.
- The lords of the two Moon signs are natural friends — minds that default to agreement.
- A Deva–Rakshasa pairing is the classical temperament clash of the gana tables — real, but softened when the rest of the charts are strong.
- Bhakoot dosha: the Moon signs sit on the 6/8 (shadashtaka) axis — read as friction and health strain.
- Nadi dosha — both Moons carry the Aadi nadi. Weighted heaviest of all eight as a health-and-progeny caution; tradition treats it as softened when the Moon signs differ, and answerable with remedies.

What this page can't see
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 Ashwini and Jyeshtha compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 12 of 36 with Ashwini as the groom's nakshatra and 13 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 Ashwini and Jyeshtha?
12 of 36 gunas one way and 13 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 Ashwini and Jyeshtha have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
Yes — both Moons share the Aadi nadi, so Nadi dosha applies. Bhakoot dosha applies: the Moon signs sit on a difficult axis.
