Punarvasu and Shravana Nakshatra Compatibility
Punarvasu and Shravana score 21 of 36 gunas in the classical Guna Milan used for marriage matching. That is comfortably above the eighteen-point line most families use, with room to talk through the one or two kootas that fall short.
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 | 1 / 2 | Partial |
| Tara how each of you affects the other's luck and wellbeing | 3 / 3 | Full |
| Yoni physical and emotional intimacy compatibility | 1 / 4 | Partial |
| Graha Maitri mental compatibility — how alike your thinking styles are | 3 / 5 | Partial |
| Gana temperament — calm, balanced, or intense natures matching up | 6 / 6 | Full |
| 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 Punarvasu and Shravana
Both stars belong to the Deva gana, so Gana — the temperament koota — scores its full 6 points. Temperament is where day-to-day friction shows up first, and matching here is worth more than its number suggests.
Nadi scores 0 of 8: in this calculation Punarvasu and Shravana 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, which reads how each partner affects the other's fortune, scores in full.
With the moon in Mithuna (Gemini) and Makara (Capricorn), Bhakoot scores its full 7 — the signs are not in the 6/8 position that this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Mithuna is ruled by Mercury and Makara by Saturn, which sets Graha Maitri at 3 of 5 and Vashya at 1 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. Punarvasu spans two signs — padas 1, 2, 3 in Mithuna; padas 4 in Karka — and this page takes Mithuna. All four padas of Shravana fall in 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 Punarvasu and Shravana a good match for marriage?
Punarvasu and Shravana score 21 of 36 gunas in TrueSaath's Guna Milan calculator, which reads it as "Good match — favourable". That is comfortably above the eighteen-point line most families use, with room to talk through the one or two kootas that fall short. 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 Punarvasu and Shravana?
21 of 36: 10 of the 21 star-based points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) and 11 of the 15 sign-based points (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot), taking the moon in Mithuna for Punarvasu and Makara for Shravana.
Is there nadi dosha between Punarvasu and Shravana?
Yes, in this calculation: Punarvasu and Shravana 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 Punarvasu and Shravana is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Shravana and Punarvasu give the same 21 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
