Kundali Milan — Free Kundali Matching for Marriage
Kundali Milan (also called Guna Milan or Ashtakoota matching) compares the birth charts of two people to gauge how compatible they are for marriage. SNS Astro computes the match the same way an experienced astrologer would — from the exact Moon positions in both charts — and gives you the full 36-point Guna score, the Manglik (Mangal Dosha) status of each person, and the Nadi and Bhakoot analysis, instantly and free.
What the 36 Gunas actually measure
The Ashtakoota system scores eight factors (kootas) that together add up to 36 points. Each koota looks at a different dimension of compatibility, from temperament and mindset to health, values and progeny. A higher total suggests fewer natural frictions, but the individual kootas matter more than the headline number — a strong overall score with a zero in a critical koota still deserves a closer look.
- Varna (1) — ego and spiritual compatibility
- Vashya (2) — mutual influence and control
- Tara (3) — health and well-being
- Yoni (4) — intimacy and physical compatibility
- Graha Maitri (5) — mental and intellectual bonding
- Gana (6) — temperament (Deva, Manushya, Rakshasa)
- Bhakoot (7) — love, finances and family welfare
- Nadi (8) — health of progeny and genetic compatibility
Manglik Dosha and Nadi Dosha, checked automatically
Beyond the Guna score, two doshas are traditionally weighed before a marriage. Mangal Dosha (being 'Manglik') is assessed from the placement of Mars in each chart; SNS Astro reports the status for both partners so you can see whether it is present on one side, both sides, or cancelled. Nadi Dosha — a zero in the Nadi koota — is flagged separately because it is considered one of the most important factors for the health of future children.
We show these as clear, plain-language verdicts rather than jargon, and explain what each result means in practice so you can have an informed conversation with your family or an astrologer.
How to match a Kundali on SNS Astro
Enter each person's name, date of birth, exact time of birth and birthplace. Time and place matter because the Moon moves quickly — a difference of a couple of hours can change the Rashi and Nakshatra, and therefore the score. Choose your preferred ayanamsa (Lahiri is the Indian government standard and our default; Raman and KP are also available), then generate the match to see the full breakdown.
Frequently asked questions
How many Gunas out of 36 are considered a good match?
As a rough guide, 18+ is considered acceptable, 24+ is good and 32+ is excellent. But the split across the eight kootas matters more than the total — a zero in Nadi or Bhakoot is usually reviewed carefully even when the overall score is high.
Do I need the exact birth time for Kundali matching?
Yes, ideally. The Moon's sign and Nakshatra — which drive most of the score — can change within a couple of hours, so an accurate birth time gives the most reliable result. Without it, treat the match as approximate.
Is Kundali Milan on SNS Astro free?
Yes. You can match two Kundalis and see the full Guna Milan score, Manglik status and Nadi/Bhakoot analysis for free. Detailed written guidance and one-to-one astrologer consultations are available separately.
What if we are Manglik — can we still marry?
Manglik Dosha is common and, in many cases, considered cancelled or mutually offset (for example, when both partners are Manglik). It is one factor among many. We report the status clearly; for a decision that affects your life, we recommend discussing the full chart with a professional.
