Krittika and Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra Compatibility
Krittika and Uttara Phalguni score 18 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.

What the numbers mean for Krittika and Uttara Phalguni
Krittika is a Rakshasa star and Uttara Phalguni 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 Krittika and Uttara Phalguni 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 1 of 4, a neutral pairing on the intimacy koota. Tara scores 0 of 3 on the star-distance count between Krittika and Uttara Phalguni.
With the moon in Vrishabha (Taurus) and Kanya (Virgo), Bhakoot scores its full 7 — the signs are not in the 6/8 position that this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Vrishabha is ruled by Venus and Kanya by Mercury, which sets Graha Maitri at 4 of 5 and Vashya at 2 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. Krittika spans two signs — padas 1 in Mesha; padas 2, 3, 4 in Vrishabha — and this page takes Vrishabha. Uttara Phalguni spans two signs — padas 1 in Simha; padas 2, 3, 4 in Kanya — and this page takes Kanya. The sign-based 15 points above therefore describe the usual case; a couple's own charts decide the real one.

Questions people ask
Is Krittika and Uttara Phalguni a good match for marriage?
Krittika and Uttara Phalguni score 18 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.

How many gunas match between Krittika and Uttara Phalguni?
18 of 36: 5 of the 21 star-based points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) and 13 of the 15 sign-based points (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot), taking the moon in Vrishabha for Krittika and Kanya for Uttara Phalguni.
Is there nadi dosha between Krittika and Uttara Phalguni?
Yes, in this calculation: Krittika and Uttara Phalguni 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 Krittika and Uttara Phalguni is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Uttara Phalguni and Krittika give the same 18 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
