Dhanishta and Uttara Bhadrapada Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Dhanishta and Uttara Bhadrapada, computed from the classical tables: 8.5–16.5 of 36 with Dhanishta as the groom's nakshatra, 8.5–16.5 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.)
Dhanishta groom · Uttara Bhadrapada bride
8.5–16.5 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Capricorn groom · Pisces bride | 16.5 / 36 — Moderate — several frictions to navigate consciously. |
|---|---|
| Aquarius groom · Pisces bride | 8.5 / 36 — Low — the kootas flag real challenges; weigh carefully. |
| Varna / 1 | 0 — spiritual compatibility and shared values |
|---|---|
| Vashya / 2 | 1–2 — 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 | 3 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 1 — 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 |
- The bride's varna outranks the groom's — worth exactly one point, the lightest koota of the eight.
- Depends on the pada — one of these nakshatras spans two rashis, so this koota shifts with the Moon's exact degree (see the table below).
- One direction lands on an inauspicious tara — classical texts read this as luck flowing unevenly between the two.
- The Lion and Cow yonis are neutral toward each other — a rapport that grows with familiarity.
- Both Moon lords are neutral to each other — workable, neither warm nor hostile.
- A Rakshasa–Manushya pairing is the classical temperament clash of the gana tables — real, but softened when the rest of the charts are strong.
- Depends on the pada — one of these nakshatras spans two rashis, so this koota shifts with the Moon's exact degree (see the table below).
- Nadi dosha — both Moons carry the Madhya 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.

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 Dhanishta and Uttara Bhadrapada compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 8.5–16.5 of 36 with Dhanishta as the groom's nakshatra and 8.5–16.5 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 Dhanishta and Uttara Bhadrapada?
8.5–16.5 of 36 gunas one way and 8.5–16.5 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 Dhanishta and Uttara Bhadrapada 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.
