Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra Compatibility
Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha score 17 of 36 gunas in the classical Guna Milan used for marriage matching. That is below the eighteen-point line most families use. It is not a veto — plenty of good marriages sit here — but it is a prompt to look at the specific kootas and, if the family cares, to ask an astrologer about remedies.
Koota by koota
| Koota · what it measures | Points | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Varna spiritual and work-ethic compatibility | 0 / 1 | None |
| 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 | 3 / 3 | Full |
| Yoni physical and emotional intimacy compatibility | 2 / 4 | Partial |
| 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 | 7 / 7 | Full |
| Nadi genetic and health compatibility, traditionally weighted most heavily | 0 / 8 | None |
What the numbers mean for Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha
Jyeshtha is a Rakshasa star and Uttara Ashadha a Manushya star. Adjacent ganas score 4 of 6: temperaments differ but are traditionally read as workable.
Nadi scores 0 of 8: in this calculation Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha fall in the same nadi, which is what is traditionally called nadi dosha. It is the single koota families weight most heavily, and the usual advice is to have an astrologer look at the full charts, where exemptions based on rashi and pada often apply.
Yoni scores 2 of 4 — a friendly rather than identical pairing on the intimacy koota. Tara, which reads how each partner affects the other's fortune, scores in full.
With the moon in Vrishchika (Scorpio) and Makara (Capricorn), Bhakoot scores its full 7 — the signs are not in the 6/8 position that this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Vrishchika is ruled by Mars and Makara by Saturn, which sets Graha Maitri at 1 of 5 and Vashya at 0 of 2. Varna scores 0 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 Jyeshtha fall in Vrishchika. Uttara Ashadha spans two signs — padas 1 in Dhanu; padas 2, 3, 4 in Makara — and this page takes Makara. The sign-based 15 points above therefore describe the usual case; a couple's own charts decide the real one.

Questions people ask
Is Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha a good match for marriage?
Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha score 17 of 36 gunas in TrueSaath's Guna Milan calculator, which reads it as "Average — proceed thoughtfully". That is below the eighteen-point line most families use. It is not a veto — plenty of good marriages sit here — but it is a prompt to look at the specific kootas and, if the family cares, to ask an astrologer about remedies. 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 Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha?
17 of 36: 9 of the 21 star-based points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) and 8 of the 15 sign-based points (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot), taking the moon in Vrishchika for Jyeshtha and Makara for Uttara Ashadha.
Is there nadi dosha between Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha?
Yes, in this calculation: Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha share a nadi, so Nadi scores 0 of 8. Classical exemptions based on rashi and pada often apply, which is why an astrologer's reading of the full charts is the usual next step.
Does it matter which of Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Uttara Ashadha and Jyeshtha give the same 17 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
