Pushya and Purva Ashadha Nakshatra Compatibility
Pushya and Purva Ashadha score 19 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.
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 | 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 Pushya and Purva Ashadha
Pushya is a Deva star and Purva 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 Pushya and Purva 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 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 Karka (Cancer) and Dhanu (Sagittarius), Bhakoot scores its full 7 — the signs are not in the 6/8 position that this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha. Karka is ruled by Moon and Dhanu by Jupiter, 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. All four padas of Pushya fall in Karka. All four padas of Purva Ashadha fall in Dhanu. The sign-based 15 points above therefore describe the usual case; a couple's own charts decide the real one.

Questions people ask
Is Pushya and Purva Ashadha a good match for marriage?
Pushya and Purva Ashadha score 19 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 Pushya and Purva Ashadha?
19 of 36: 8 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 Karka for Pushya and Dhanu for Purva Ashadha.
Is there nadi dosha between Pushya and Purva Ashadha?
Yes, in this calculation: Pushya and Purva 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 Pushya and Purva Ashadha is the boy's star?
Not in this calculator: every koota it scores is symmetric, so Purva Ashadha and Pushya give the same 19 of 36. Some traditional methods count Tara from the girl's star only and can differ by a point or two.
