## How would you like to explore this relationship?

**Relationship reflection:** choose a concern and answer scenarios in 2–6 minutes. Your first look is private; a joint report follows when both people answer.

Compare two Vedic charts using both people’s birth date, time, and place. Reuse saved details when available.

## Compatibility first look

Name the person, pick what you want to understand, and answer a few realistic scenarios. You'll get a clear first look and a plain-English report.

Personalize this match (optional)

You can start with the match now. A short behavior reflection is available later if you want a more personal comparison.

Before you enter your details

## Read the breakdown, then the total

Guna Milan is the eight-factor Ashtakoota part of traditional Kundli matching. The factors carry different maximum points, adding up to 36. A useful explanation shows where the points come from and which questions remain.

| Factor | Example points |
| --- | --- |
| Varna | 1 / 1 |
| Vashya | 2 / 2 |
| Tara | 3 / 3 |
| Yoni | 3 / 4 |
| Graha Maitri | 2 / 5 |
| Gana | 6 / 6 |
| Bhakoot | 7 / 7 |
| Nadi | 0 / 8 |
| Illustrative total | 24 / 36 |

### What the number leaves out

This example has no Nadi points despite a total of 24. Another total of 24 could have a different breakdown. Ask about the factors and any additional chart checks before interpreting the total. It is not a 67% chance of a happy marriage.

### What to discuss together

Separately from the chart, try: “If one of us received a job offer in another city, how would we balance work, family responsibilities, and our relationship?” Your answers provide real-life context; they are not inferred from a Guna score.

## How to use Vedastro for marriage compatibility

1. **Enter both sets of birth details.** Check the date, recorded time, and selected city. Keep an approximate time explicit.
2. **Review the chart evidence and explanation.** Read calculated factors separately from AI-assisted interpretation and note missing information.
3. **Add relationship context if useful.** The scenario path explores your own answers about everyday situations. It is a separate reflection layer.

Traditional scoring reference: [Drik Panchang’s Ashtakoota tutorial](https://www.drikpanchang.com/tutorials/jyotisha/kundali-match/kundali-match.html?lang=en). [Read Vedastro’s methods and privacy information](/trust).

## Before you match your Kundlis

Is Kundli matching free?

You can read this sample and the guides without signing in. A free account includes a personalized relationship preview; full access has separate membership terms. [Check exactly what is included](/pricing) before starting.

Can I match by name or without a birth time?

A name alone does not identify a birth chart. The chart path asks for both people’s birth date, time, and place. If those details are missing, you can begin with relationship scenarios instead. A scenario reflection is not a substitute Guna Milan calculation.

Why do Kundli matching scores differ between websites?

Compare the original inputs, time-zone handling, chart settings, and matching rules. Check individual factors before comparing totals. [Use the matching guide’s comparison checklist](/guides/kundli-matching).

Does a high score guarantee a successful marriage?

No. Guna Milan is a traditional astrological framework, not a validated probability of relationship success. Mutual respect, consent, and lived experience remain essential. Use the reading to open a conversation, not to decide for either person.
