5 match fully and 2 partly. Rajju and vedhai, the two that matter most, match.
Short on: Sthree deergham, Rasi, Vasiyam.
With rajju and vedhai clear, these are usually not taken as a bar.
- Dinam
- Day-to-day harmony and goodwill between the two.
- Ganam
- Temperament — Deva, Manushya or Rakshasa — and how well the two suit.
- Mahendram
- Children and the growth of the family.
- Sthree deergham
- The wife’s long and well life, and the family’s prosperity.
- Yoni
- Physical compatibility. Each star has an animal; enemy animals do not match.
- Rasi
- Harmony between the two families, read from the two rasis.
- Rasi adhipathi
- Whether the lords of the two rasis are friends; tied to the family line.
- Vasiyam
- Mutual attraction and affection, from the rasis that draw each other.
- Rajju
- The most important check, for a long life together. Both stars in one rajju group do not match.
- Vedhai
- A life free of affliction. Some star pairs strike each other (vedhai) and do not match.
