A Ashwini boy and a Anuradha girl score 17.5 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 30.5 out of 36 in every combination — the table below shows every combination honestly.
Every pada combination of this pairing lands in the “Very good” 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 (Horse and Deer) — 2 of 4 points.
- Gana (6/6): Ashwini is Deva (gentle, giving); Anuradha is Deva (gentle, giving). That scores 6 of 6.
- Nadi (8/8): Aadi and Madhya nadi — no dosha, full points.
Bhakoot: watch the pada
Because Ashwini and Anuradha each span sign boundaries by pada, it is classically cancelled (same sign lord) for 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 Ashwini–Anuradha, it guessed your padas — or ignored them. The spread above (30.5 to 30.5) 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.
