Kundli Matching, also known as Horoscope Matching, holds significant importance during marriage ceremonies. According to Hindu Scriptures, marriage is considered a sacred union that is planned even before birth. It is a joyous occasion that marks a significant milestone in one's life. Everyone desires a compatible life partner with whom they can create beautiful memories and experience happiness. Therefore, finding the ideal life partner has become a paramount interest for people in India.
In Hinduism, the horoscopes or kundlis of both the prospective bride and groom are matched to mitigate any potential negative influences after marriage. Additionally, astrology provides various remedies and solutions to counteract any malefic effects resulting from doshas (astrological imbalances).
Discovering the Right Partner through Kundli Matching
Kundli Matching, an integral aspect of Vedic Astrology, holds great significance. It signifies the sacred bond between two individuals, uniting them in a long and prosperous marital life. There are different terms used to refer to matchmaking, such as Kundali Milan, Guna Milan, Horoscope Matching, Compatibility, and Lagna Melapak. The factors considered during the matching process include:
- Guna Milan
- Manglik Dosha
- Strength of Navamsa Chart
Guna Milan
In India, Janam Kundli (also called as Birth Chart or Natal Chart) is taken into consideration for Kundli Matching. Guna Milan is based on the position of Moon in the Natal Charts of bride and groom. In North India, there is a process of Guna Milan, called as, "Ashtakoot Milan", which signifies the eight aspects of Gunas. "Ashta" means "Eight" and "Koota" means "Aspects"
Celestial bodies like stars and planets influence our lives in many ways, and the horoscope matching helps us about the precautions and remedies for a happy married life. It also helps to nullify or decrease the effects of any dosh in the Kundali’s of the couple to ensure their peaceful, healthy, and prosperous life. Kundali matching, also known as Gun Milan, is the study of the 36 Gunas of a person.
A horoscope matching compares 8 categories or Koots of a person and hence also referred to as Ashtakoot Milan. Ashta means eight and the Koot means categories. These Koots have 36 Gunas that are to be compared for calculating the compatibility between a couple. The eight Koots are : Varna, Vasya, Deena, Yoni, Maitri, Gan, Bhakoot and Nadi.
Mangal Dosha matching is extremely important for Kundali Milan, and if there is some turbulence in the mangal dosha, it will not be good for marriage. You can certainly talk to the Astrologer Acharya Vinod Ji or pandit to essentially help you do some pooja path to ensure that the mangal dosha is removed from your Rashi. Everyone who is getting married should atleast test for Dosha. It is essential for a happy marriage.
