To find out the Vedic compatibility or horoscope compatibility it is imperative to read the individual birth charts. To find compatibility, horoscope is the most precise way to analysis the true romantic compassion with one another mainly based on movement of the moon. Since Vedic astrology is a vast subject it is possible to analyze the compatibility factor in detail, however few famous concepts deserve the consideration. Broadly it is important to know that a horoscope is made on the basis of the movement of the celestials and their interrelation in twelve signs and twenty-seven asterisms. Each horoscope comprise of twelve houses, each symbolizes some aspect of human life.

In Vedic astrology for matching horoscopes or knowing the compatibility factor between the boy and the girl following eight parameters are tested
  • 1 - Varna
  • 2 - Vashya
  • 3 - Tara
  • 4 - Yoni
  • 5 - Graha-maitri
  • 6 – Gana
  • 7 – Bhakoot
  • 8 - Nadi
The suitability is considered by adding the total points based on the above parameters. Maximum point or gunas are 36. If total matching gunas are 27 or more it is considered as best matching. Between 18 and 25 marriage can be advised. Below 18 points the couple is generally advised not to marry however that is not the final verdict as there are other higher methods like ‘astakvarga’ to verify the compatibility even further.

"Manglik Dosha" is considered to be the major harmful factor in one’s love life. Manglik boy is advised to marry the manglik girl and vise a versa to avoid the break in the relationship and in order to increase the compatibility between the partners. This dreaded planetary position arises when Mars is placed in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th and 12th house from ascendant in a horoscope. However, if Mars has the aspect of Jupiter or if it is situated in Leo or Sagittarius signs, then its malefic effect gets nullified.

Love can overcome any hurdle and perhaps that is the most important thing that plays the deciding role in the compatibility equation between two people. However, a word of advice is that there is no harm in exploring stars. An apple will fall on the ground if dropped; it fell as effortlessly before hitting the Newton’s head as it has after that. It will continue to fall in a similar fashion and does not require any sanction or scientific theory to do so. Similarly lack of scientific theories does not make any unexplained phenomenon less scientific, answer is there…one just needs to focus a little harder barring all inhibitions and assumptions to see what stars are trying to show.
