Vishakha and Shatabhisha Marriage Compatibility
Ashtakoota guna milan for Vishakha and Shatabhisha, computed from the classical tables: 27–28.5 of 36 with Vishakha as the groom's nakshatra, 27–27.5 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.)
Vishakha groom · Shatabhisha bride
27–28.5 of 36 gunas, depending on each Moon's pada (one of these nakshatras spans two rashis):
| Libra groom · Aquarius bride | 27 / 36 — Very good — a well-matched pairing by the kootas. |
|---|---|
| Scorpio groom · Aquarius bride | 28.5 / 36 — Excellent — a very strong classical match. |
| 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 | 0.5–5 — mental affinity and friendship |
| Gana / 6 | 6 — temperament — divine, human, or fiery |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 0–7 — emotional bond, prosperity, and family wellbeing |
| Nadi / 8 | 8 — 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 Vishakha and Shatabhisha compatible for marriage?
By ashtakoota guna milan they score 27–28.5 of 36 with Vishakha as the groom's nakshatra and 27–27.5 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 Vishakha and Shatabhisha?
27–28.5 of 36 gunas one way and 27–27.5 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 Vishakha and Shatabhisha have Nadi or Bhakoot dosha?
No Nadi dosha — the two nadis differ. Bhakoot dosha applies in some pada combinations — see the by-sign table.
