Magha and Vishakha Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Magha and Vishakha, computed from the classical tables: 18.5–22.5 of 36 with Magha as the groom's nakshatra, 17.5–23.5 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.)
Magha groom · Vishakha bride
18.5–22.5 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Leo groom · Libra bride | 18.5 / 36 — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas. |
|---|---|
| Leo groom · Scorpio bride | 22.5 / 36 — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas. |
| Varna / 1 | 0–1 — 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 | 0–5 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 6 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 7 — emotional bond, prosperity, and family wellbeing |
| Nadi / 8 | 0 — health and progeny; the most weighted koota |
- 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).
- 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 Rat and Tiger yonis are neutral toward each other — a rapport that grows with familiarity.
- 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).
- Both are Rakshasa gana — the same temperament family, the easiest gana pairing.
- The two Moon signs avoid the difficult axes — day-to-day emotional and material rhythms align.
- Nadi dosha — both Moons carry the Antya 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.
Vishakha groom · Magha bride
17.5–23.5 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Libra groom · Leo bride | 17.5 / 36 — Moderate — several frictions to navigate consciously. |
|---|---|
| Scorpio groom · Leo bride | 23.5 / 36 — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas. |
| Varna / 1 | 0–1 — 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 |

| Gana / 6 | 6 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 7 — emotional bond, prosperity, and family wellbeing |
| Nadi / 8 | 0 — health and progeny; the most weighted koota |
Every koota scores the same in this direction.

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 Magha and Vishakha compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 18.5–22.5 of 36 with Magha as the groom's nakshatra and 17.5–23.5 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 Magha and Vishakha?
18.5–22.5 of 36 gunas one way and 17.5–23.5 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 Magha and Vishakha have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
Yes — both Moons share the Antya nadi, so Nadi dosha applies. No Bhakoot dosha in any pada combination.
