What this means for Vishakha and Revati

The ones that are not present are Dina, Gana, Mahendra, Stree Deergha, Rasi, Rasyathipathi and Vasya. Rajju is present, which is the single result most families check first.

Vishakha is a Rakshasa gana star of the tiger yoni, in the Nabhi rajju; Revati is Deva gana, elephant yoni, Paada rajju. For the four sign-based poruthams this page takes the moon in Tula for Vishakha and Meena for Revati, which is where each star's padas mostly fall.

The other way round

Porutham is not symmetric. With Revati as the bride's star and Vishakha as the groom's, the result is 5 of ten. Dina and Stree Deergha are counted from the bride's star forward, so they change; the other eight do not.

And in the North Indian system

The same two stars score 18 of 36 gunas in Ashtakoota Guna Milan, which most North and West Indian families use. The two systems read overlapping material and weigh it very differently, so a pairing can look strong in one and ordinary in the other. Neither is a correction of the other; families use the one their own tradition uses.

How each porutham was judged

PoruthamRule applied
DinaCounted from the bride's star to the groom's and divided by nine; remainders 2, 4, 6, 8 and 0 are held to be favourable.
GanaPresent when both belong to the same gana, and accepted when Deva meets Manushya; Deva with Rakshasa is held to be the difficult pairing.
MahendraPresent when the count from the bride's star to the groom's is 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22 or 25.
Stree DeerghaPresent when the groom's star lies more than thirteen from the bride's, counted forward. Some traditions accept more than nine.
YoniBest when both share an animal, absent when the two animals are traditional enemies, and accepted otherwise.
RasiAbsent when the two signs fall in the 2/12 or 6/8 relationship either way round, and present otherwise.
RasyathipathiPresent when the two sign lords are the same planet or are friends in the classical table.
VasyaPresent when either sign is vasya to the other in the classical table, or when both share a sign.
RajjuPresent when the two stars fall in different rajjus. Sharing a rajju is the one result many families treat as decisive on its own.
VedhaAbsent only for the thirteen pairs of stars held to pierce each other; every other pairing is present.

Published sources genuinely differ on Dina, on whether Stree Deergha wants a gap of more than nine or more than thirteen, and on the Vedha list. That is why two websites give the same couple different answers. The rules used here are printed above so you can see exactly which tradition this follows and where your family astrologer may differ.

Questions people ask

Is Vishakha and Revati a good porutham match?

With Vishakha as the bride's star and Revati as the groom's, 3 of the ten poruthams are present. That is below what most families would accept without an astrologer looking at both charts properly. A real couple's charts can move this, so use the free calculator with birth details.

Is there Rajju dosha between Vishakha and Revati?

No. Vishakha falls in the Nabhi rajju and Revati in the Paada, so Rajju is present.

Does it matter which of Vishakha and Revati is the bride's star?

Yes, unlike Guna Milan. Dina and Stree Deergha are counted from the bride's star to the groom's, so reversing them gives 5 of ten instead of 3. This page takes Vishakha as the bride.

How does this compare with the 36-point Guna Milan?

The same two stars score 18 of 36 gunas in the North Indian Ashtakoota system, which weighs the same material differently and is symmetric. Most South Indian families use the poruthams; most North Indian families use the gunas.
