What the numbers mean for Magha and Purva Phalguni
Magha is a Rakshasa star and Purva Phalguni a Manushya 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, which reads how each partner affects the other's fortune, scores in full.
With the moon in Simha (Leo) and Simha (Leo), 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 Simha by Sun, 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 Magha fall in Simha. All four padas of Purva Phalguni fall in Simha. The sign-based 15 points above therefore describe the usual case; a couple's own charts decide the real one.

How many gunas match between Magha and Purva Phalguni?
28 of 36: 19 of the 21 star-based points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) and 9 of the 15 sign-based points (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot), taking the moon in Simha for Magha and Simha for Purva Phalguni.
Is there nadi dosha between Magha and Purva Phalguni?
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 Magha and Purva Phalguni is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Purva Phalguni and Magha give the same 28 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
