Uttara Ashadha and Dhanishta Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Uttara Ashadha and Dhanishta, computed from the classical tables: 16.5–26.5 of 36 with Uttara Ashadha as the groom's nakshatra, 16.5–27.5 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.)
Uttara Ashadha groom · Dhanishta bride
16.5–26.5 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Sagittarius groom · Capricorn bride | 16.5 / 36 — Moderate — several frictions to navigate consciously. |
|---|---|
| Sagittarius groom · Aquarius bride | 24.5 / 36 — Very good — a well-matched pairing by the kootas. |
| Capricorn groom · Capricorn bride | 26.5 / 36 — Very good — a well-matched pairing by the kootas. |
| Capricorn groom · Aquarius bride | 18.5 / 36 — Good — a workable match; mind the lower-scoring areas. |
| Varna / 1 | 1 — 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 | 3–5 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 0 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 0–7 — 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).
- One direction lands on an inauspicious tara — classical texts read this as luck flowing unevenly between the two.
- The Mongoose and Lion 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).
- A Manushya–Rakshasa 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).
- Different nadis (Antya and Madhya) — 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 Uttara Ashadha and Dhanishta compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 16.5–26.5 of 36 with Uttara Ashadha as the groom's nakshatra and 16.5–27.5 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 Uttara Ashadha and Dhanishta?
16.5–26.5 of 36 gunas one way and 16.5–27.5 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 Uttara Ashadha and Dhanishta have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
No Nadi dosha — the two nadis differ. Bhakoot dosha applies in some pada combinations — see the by-sign table.
