A Anuradha boy and a Purva Ashadha girl score 8.5 of 21 on the nakshatra-level kootas (tara, yoni, gana, nadi). Add the moon-sign kootas and the complete 36-guna total comes out to 15.5 out of 36 in every combination — the table below shows every combination honestly.
Every pada combination of this pairing lands in the “Needs a careful look” band of the classical reading. Below is what each koota actually contributes — computed, not copied from a compatibility chart.
The birth-star kootas (fixed for this pair)
- Tara (1.5/3): counted from each birth star to the other; this pair scores 1.5 points.
- Yoni (2/4): neutral yoni animals (Deer and Monkey) — 2 of 4 points.
- Gana (5/6): Anuradha is Deva (gentle, giving); Purva Ashadha is Manushya (practical, balanced). That scores 5 of 6.
- Nadi (0/8 — dosha, unless cancelled): both stars are Madhya nadi. This is the heaviest single loss in the system — and the one fear-sellers lean on. The classical cancellation is checked per pada in the table below; for this pair no pada combination cancels it, so a pandit would weigh the whole chart instead.
Bhakoot: watch the pada
Because Anuradha and Purva Ashadha each span sign boundaries by pada, bhakoot dosha (0/7) arises for pada combinations 1–1, 1–2, 1–3, 1–4, 2–1, 2–2, 2–3, 2–4, 3–1, 3–2, 3–3, 3–4, 4–1, 4–2, 4–3, 4–4. This is exactly why a score without pada is a guess.

The honest read
If an online calculator gave you one flat number for Anuradha–Purva Ashadha, it guessed your padas — or ignored them. The spread above (15.5 to 15.5) is the truth of this pairing. And even the right number is the beginning of matching, not the end: dasha timing, the seventh house of both charts, and manglik for both partners sit outside the guna count entirely. Anyone who turns a low number into a remedy bill skipped all of that on purpose.
