Astrological Compatibility: What Really Matches a Couple

The 36-guna score is a headline, not the whole story — astrologers weigh which gunas you lose, not just the total.

Nadi (8 points) and Bhakoot (7 points) carry the most weight; a low total can still hide a serious dosha.

Mangal, Nadi and Bhakoot doshas are the real deal-breakers — but many are 'cancelled' by other chart factors.

Beyond gunas, astrologers read the lagna, the 7th house and dasha timing for when a marriage actually settles.

Even modern love-match celebrity couples often quietly run a kundli — it's now ritual reassurance, not a veto.
