Early version: the koota tables aren't checked against a printed book yet, and a few published tables disagree. Read the total as a way into the conversation.
The 8 kootas
- Varna / 1
How the two Moons' temperaments line up on drive and ego. It is the lightest factor, so it is worth just 1 point.
- Vashya / 2
Who tends to lead and who tends to go along, and how easily you each pull the other your way.
- Tara / 3
How your two birth stars (nakshatras) sit with each other. Tradition links it to ease and well-being together.
- Yoni / 4
Comfort and chemistry. Each birth star has a symbolic animal, and the pairing hints at how natural closeness feels.
- Graha Maitri / 5
Whether the planets ruling your two Moon signs are friends. In plain words: are you on the same mental wavelength?
- Gana / 6
Temperament. Deva, manushya and rakshasa are old labels for gentle, practical and intense natures. None is good or bad.
- Bhakoot / 7
How your two Moon signs sit relative to each other. Tradition links it to emotional bond and how a shared life runs.
- Nadi / 8
The heaviest factor. Birth stars fall into three old groups, and two people from the same group score 0 here.
The two Moons
Guna milan reads the Moon in each chart: its sign and its birth star.

Questions
What is guna milan?
Guna milan is a traditional way to compare two Vedic birth charts. It's based mainly on the Moon's position in each chart and gives a score out of 36. It's also called ashtakoot milan or kundli milan.
What are the 8 kootas?
The eight factors are Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi. They carry 1 to 8 points each, and together they make 36.
Is a low score bad?
No. The score is one traditional lens, and plenty of other things matter in a relationship: how you talk, what you both want, and how you treat each other. Use the score to start a conversation, and decide the rest yourselves.
Is kundli matching free on dhoop?
Yes. It's free, and you can see the result without making an account.
Which system does it use?
The sidereal zodiac with the Lahiri ayanamsa, the common choice for Vedic astrology in India. The koota tables are an early version: they haven't been checked against a printed book yet.
