Ardra and Mula Nakshatra Compatibility
Ardra and Mula score 19 of 36 gunas in the classical Guna Milan used for marriage matching. That is right around the eighteen-point line many families treat as the minimum, so the kootas that score zero deserve a proper conversation rather than a shrug.
Koota by koota
| Koota · what it measures | Points | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Varna spiritual and work-ethic compatibility | 1 / 1 | Full |
| Vashya how naturally you'll influence and defer to each other, day to day | 0 / 2 | None |
| Tara how each of you affects the other's luck and wellbeing | 1 / 3 | Partial |
| Yoni physical and emotional intimacy compatibility | 4 / 4 | Full |
| Graha Maitri mental compatibility — how alike your thinking styles are | 1 / 5 | Partial |
| Gana temperament — calm, balanced, or intense natures matching up | 4 / 6 | Partial |
| Bhakoot love, family growth, and financial harmony over time | 0 / 7 | None |
| Nadi genetic and health compatibility, traditionally weighted most heavily | 8 / 8 | Full |
What the numbers mean for Ardra and Mula
Ardra is a Manushya star and Mula a Rakshasa star. Adjacent ganas score 4 of 6: temperaments differ but are traditionally read as workable.
Nadi, the heaviest koota at 8 points, scores in full: the two stars fall in different nadis in this calculation, which is the outcome families look for first.
Yoni scores its full 4, the best result for physical and emotional compatibility. Tara scores 1 of 3 — a middling result for how each partner affects the other's fortune.
With the moon in Mithuna (Gemini) and Dhanu (Sagittarius), the two signs sit in the 6/8 position, so Bhakoot scores 0 of 7 — what this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Because it depends on the moon sign rather than the star, a couple whose padas fall in the neighbouring rashi may not have it at all. Mithuna is ruled by Mercury and Dhanu by Jupiter, which sets Graha Maitri at 1 of 5 and Vashya at 0 of 2. Varna scores 1 of 1.

About the moon-sign assumption
Four kootas — Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot — read the moon sign, not the star, and a page about two stars has no birth details. All four padas of Ardra fall in Mithuna. All four padas of Mula fall in Dhanu. The sign-based 15 points above therefore describe the usual case; a couple's own charts decide the real one.

Questions people ask
Is Ardra and Mula a good match for marriage?
Ardra and Mula score 19 of 36 gunas in TrueSaath's Guna Milan calculator, which reads it as "Acceptable — some areas need discussion". That is right around the eighteen-point line many families treat as the minimum, so the kootas that score zero deserve a proper conversation rather than a shrug. A full kundli with both birth dates, times and places can move this figure, so use the free calculator for a real couple's exact result.
How many gunas match between Ardra and Mula?
19 of 36: 17 of the 21 star-based points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) and 2 of the 15 sign-based points (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot), taking the moon in Mithuna for Ardra and Dhanu for Mula.
Is there nadi dosha between Ardra and Mula?
No. In this calculation the two stars fall in different nadis, so Nadi scores its full 8 points and there is no nadi dosha.
Does it matter which of Ardra and Mula is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Mula and Ardra give the same 19 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
