Krittika & Ardra · Thirumana Porutham
3 / 10 Poruthams
Difficult match — several poruthams fail; a detailed astrologer review is strongly advised.
The 10 Poruthams
✓ Dina PoruthamCount from Krittika to Ardra is 4. This count is considered favourable for longevity and daily harmony.
✗ Gana PoruthamKrittika is Rakshasa gana; Ardra is Manusha gana. Deva-Rakshasa and Manusha-Rakshasa combinations are traditionally considered incompatible.
✗ Yoni PoruthamKrittika has the Sheep yoni; Ardra has the Dog yoni. These yonis are neutral — acceptable compatibility.
✗ Rasi PoruthamKrittika is in Aries; Ardra is in Gemini. Count from one rasi to the other is 3. This rasi position is considered less favourable.
✗ Rasiyathipathi PoruthamThe lords of the two rashis are Mars and Mercury, who are enemies. Enemy lords are traditionally considered unfavourable.
✗ Vasya PoruthamThe rashis do not have mutual control — the couple may need to work on influence and persuasion.
✗ Rajju PoruthamKrittika is in the Antya rajju group; Ardra is in the Antya group. Same group — Rajju dosha is traditionally flagged; many families perform pariharam.
✓ Vedha PoruthamNo Vedha (obstruction) between these nakshatras.
✗ Varna PoruthamKrittika has the Kshatriya varna; Ardra has the Sudra varna. Different varnas — traditionally considered less favourable.
✓ Nadi PoruthamKrittika is Adi nadi; Ardra is Madhya nadi. Different nadis — no Nadi dosha.
Krittika is Rakshasa gana (Sheep yoni, Adi nadi); Ardra is Manusha gana (Dog yoni, Madhya nadi). Their rashis are Mesha and Mithuna, ruled by Mars and Mercury.
