Mrigashira and Swati Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Mrigashira and Swati, computed from the classical tables: 26–27 of 36 with Mrigashira as the groom's nakshatra, 25–27 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.)
Mrigashira groom · Swati bride
26–27 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Taurus groom · Libra bride | 26 / 36 — Very good — a well-matched pairing by the kootas. |
|---|---|
| Gemini groom · Libra bride | 27 / 36 — Very good — a well-matched pairing by the kootas. |
| Varna / 1 | 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 | 5 — 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 groom's Moon-sign varna is equal or senior to the bride's — the classical order holds.
- 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).
- Counting the stars in both directions lands on auspicious taras — fortune supports the pair both ways.
- The Serpent and Buffalo 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.
- Both are Deva gana — the same temperament family, the easiest gana pairing.
- Bhakoot dosha: the Moon signs sit on the 6/8 (shadashtaka) axis — read as friction and health strain.
- Different nadis (Madhya and Antya) — 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 Mrigashira and Swati compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 26–27 of 36 with Mrigashira as the groom's nakshatra and 25–27 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 Mrigashira and Swati?
26–27 of 36 gunas one way and 25–27 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 Mrigashira and Swati have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
No Nadi dosha — the two nadis differ. Bhakoot dosha applies: the Moon signs sit on a difficult axis.
