Chitra and Dhanishta Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Chitra and Dhanishta, computed from the classical tables: 17–24 of 36 with Chitra as the groom's nakshatra, 17–25 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.)
Chitra groom · Dhanishta bride
17–24 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Virgo groom · Capricorn bride | 17 / 36 — Moderate — several frictions to navigate consciously. |
|---|---|
| Virgo groom · Aquarius bride | 18 / 36 — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas. |
| Libra groom · Capricorn bride | 24 / 36 — Very good — a well-matched pairing by the kootas. |
| Libra groom · Aquarius bride | 19 / 36 — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas. |
| Varna / 1 | 0–1 — spiritual compatibility and shared values |
|---|---|
| Vashya / 2 | 1–2 — 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 | 4–5 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 6 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 0–7 — emotional bond, prosperity, and family wellbeing |
| Nadi / 8 | 0 — health and progeny; the most weighted koota |

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 Chitra and Dhanishta compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 17–24 of 36 with Chitra as the groom's nakshatra and 17–25 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 Chitra and Dhanishta?
17–24 of 36 gunas one way and 17–25 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 Chitra and Dhanishta have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
Yes — both Moons share the Madhya nadi, so Nadi dosha applies. Bhakoot dosha applies in some pada combinations — see the by-sign table.
