Magha and Hasta Nakshatra Compatibility
Magha and Hasta score 13 of 36 gunas in the classical Guna Milan used for marriage matching. That is a low score on the classical measures. Families who weight kundli heavily usually want an astrologer to look at the full charts before going further.
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 | 0 / 6 | None |
| 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 Magha and Hasta
Magha is a Rakshasa star and Hasta a Deva star — the two ganas traditionally read as furthest apart, so Gana scores 0 of 6. This is the koota most often behind a low total between two otherwise compatible charts, and it is about temperament, not character.
Nadi scores 0 of 8: in this calculation Magha and Hasta 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 Simha (Leo) and Kanya (Virgo), Bhakoot scores its full 7 — the signs are not in the 6/8 position that this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Simha is ruled by Sun and Kanya by Mercury, 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 Magha fall in Simha. All four padas of Hasta fall in 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 Magha and Hasta a good match for marriage?
Magha and Hasta score 13 of 36 gunas in TrueSaath's Guna Milan calculator, which reads it as "Low compatibility — consult an astrologer". That is a low score on the classical measures. Families who weight kundli heavily usually want an astrologer to look at the full charts before going further. 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 Magha and Hasta?
13 of 36: 5 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 Simha for Magha and Kanya for Hasta.
Is there nadi dosha between Magha and Hasta?
Yes, in this calculation: Magha and Hasta 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 Magha and Hasta is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Hasta and Magha give the same 13 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
