A Vishakha boy and a Bharani girl score 11.5 of 21 on the nakshatra-level kootas (tara, yoni, gana, nadi). Add the moon-sign kootas and the complete 36-guna total ranges from 22.5 to 25.5 out of 36 — the table below shows every combination honestly.
Depending on pada, this pairing lands anywhere from “Acceptable” to “Very good” on the classical bands. 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 (Tiger and Elephant) — 2 of 4 points.
- Gana (0/6): Vishakha is Rakshasa (intense, strong-willed); Bharani is Manushya (practical, balanced). That scores 0 of 6.
- Nadi (8/8): Antya and Madhya nadi — no dosha, full points.
Bhakoot: watch the pada
Because Vishakha and Bharani each span sign boundaries by pada, it is classically cancelled (same sign lord) for 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 Vishakha–Bharani, it guessed your padas — or ignored them. The spread above (22.5 to 25.5) 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.
