Krittika & Ashlesha · Thirumana Porutham
4 / 10 Poruthams
Difficult match — several poruthams fail; a detailed astrologer review is strongly advised.
The 10 Poruthams
✗ Dina PoruthamCount from Krittika to Ashlesha is 7. This count is considered less favourable for the daily rhythm of the marriage.
✓ Gana PoruthamKrittika is Rakshasa gana; Ashlesha is Rakshasa gana. This gana combination is acceptable.
✗ Yoni PoruthamKrittika has the Sheep yoni; Ashlesha has the Cat yoni. These yonis are neutral — acceptable compatibility.
✓ Rasi PoruthamKrittika is in Aries; Ashlesha is in Cancer. Count from one rasi to the other is 4. This rasi position is considered favourable.
✓ Rasiyathipathi PoruthamThe lords of the two rashis are Mars and Moon, who are friends. Acceptable lord compatibility.
✗ 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; Ashlesha 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; Ashlesha has the Brahmin varna. Different varnas — traditionally considered less favourable.
✗ Nadi PoruthamKrittika is Adi nadi; Ashlesha is Adi nadi. Same nadi — Nadi dosha is traditionally flagged (health/offspring concern).
Krittika is Rakshasa gana (Sheep yoni, Adi nadi); Ashlesha is Rakshasa gana (Cat yoni, Adi nadi). Their rashis are Mesha and Karka, ruled by Mars and Moon.
