Exact Moon signs, Nakshatras with Pada and Yoni animals for both partners - the foundation of every authentic Gun Milan report.
Kundli matching by date of birth is the most trusted way Indian families evaluate a proposed alliance. This free tool follows the same classical Ashtakoota system used by traditional astrologers.
Vedic astrology believes the Moon's position at birth shapes temperament, emotional needs and instincts. Comparing two Janam Kundlis reveals how those patterns interact - highlighting harmony in daily life, physical intimacy, finances, health and progeny long before the wedding date is fixed.
A score above 18 out of 36 is the widely followed acceptance threshold, but experienced astrologers read deeper: a strong Nadi and Bhakoot pairing matters more than padding points elsewhere. Your report shows every Koota separately so nothing hides behind an average.
This tool calculates an independent ephemeris-based Janam Kundli for the boy and the girl from their date of birth, time of birth and birthplace. It then extracts each partner's Moon sign (Rashi) and Nakshatra with Pada, and applies the classical Ashtakoota tables - Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi - to produce the Gun Milan score out of 36.
Because the calculation uses real planetary longitudes rather than stored tables, results stay accurate even for births decades ago or near Nakshatra boundaries. The same engine powers our free Janam Kundli generator, so you can open each partner's complete chart right after matching.
Kundli matching is known by different names across India. In Kerala and Karnataka it is commonly called Janmakshar matching, in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh families speak of Patrika gun milan or Patrika milan, in Tamil Nadu the same check is Jathagam porutham, and in Telugu-speaking states astrologers count the gunas, or ganalu, between charts. Whatever the name, the underlying Ashtakoota system is the same: eight Kootas scored out of 36 gunas from both birth charts.
Gun Milan is also popularly searched as kundali milan, gun milan, guna milan, gana matching or match making kundali. This free tool covers all of these needs in one place - enter both birth details once and get the complete 36-guna score, the Koota-wise breakdown, the Mangal Dosha check and a marriage compatibility summary.
Kundli match making (also called Gun Milan or Ashtakoota matching) is a Vedic astrology method that compares the birth charts of a boy and a girl before marriage. Both Janam Kundlis are calculated from the exact date, time and place of birth, then eight Kootas - Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi - are scored out of 36 gunas to measure compatibility across temperament, intimacy, destiny, mental rapport and family welfare.
Traditionally, a minimum score of 18 out of 36 gunas is required for a match to be considered acceptable. Scores between 18 and 24 indicate an average match, 25 to 32 indicates a very good match, and 33 to 36 is considered excellent. However, astrologers also weigh individual Kootas - Nadi Dosha or Bhakoot Dosha can outweigh a high total score.
Name-and-date-only matching gives only an estimate, because the Ashtakoota score depends on the Moon sign and Nakshatra, which need the exact birth time and place. On Planets360 the names personalise your report while the matching itself is computed from both partners' full birth details - a far more reliable result than name-based calculators.
Gana matching is the third of the eight Ashtakoota Kootas. It compares temperament types - Deva (divine), Manushya (human) and Rakshasa (assertive) - assigned to the Moon Nakshatra of each partner, and carries 6 of the 36 gunas. A compatible Gana pairing suggests harmony in nature and day-to-day temperament.
These are regional names for the same Vedic marriage matching. Janmakshar matching (birth-star matching) is the common term in Kerala and Karnataka, while Patrika gun milan or Patrika milan is used in Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, where the birth chart is called a Patrika. In Tamil Nadu the same process is known as Jathagam porutham, and in Telugu-speaking states astrologers count the ganalu (gunas) between charts.
An approximate birth time can still produce a useful Gun Milan score because the calculation primarily depends on Moon sign and Nakshatra positions, which change slowly. However, for complete accuracy - especially for Tara, Yoni and Nadi Kootas near sign boundaries - the most precise birth time available should always be used.
When only one chart shows Mangal Dosha (Mars in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house), traditional astrology recommends a detailed Mars analysis covering house placement, aspects, conjunctions and cancellation factors such as Mars being in its own sign. When both charts show Mangal Dosha, the affliction is traditionally believed to neutralize itself.
A high Ashtakoota score is a strong traditional indicator, but responsible Vedic astrology treats it as one input among many. The full birth charts - Lagna, planetary strength, Dasha periods and Doshas - should be reviewed together.
