Krittika & Punarvasu · Thirumana Porutham
2 / 10 Poruthams
Difficult match — several poruthams fail; a detailed astrologer review is strongly advised.
The 10 Poruthams
✗ Dina PoruthamCount from Krittika to Punarvasu is 5. This count is considered less favourable for the daily rhythm of the marriage.
✗ Gana PoruthamKrittika is Rakshasa gana; Punarvasu is Deva gana. Deva-Rakshasa and Manusha-Rakshasa combinations are traditionally considered incompatible.
✗ Yoni PoruthamKrittika has the Sheep yoni; Punarvasu has the Cat yoni. These yonis are neutral — acceptable compatibility.
✗ Rasi PoruthamKrittika is in Aries; Punarvasu 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; Punarvasu is in the Adi group. Different groups — no Rajju dosha.
✓ Vedha PoruthamNo Vedha (obstruction) between these nakshatras.
✗ Varna PoruthamKrittika has the Kshatriya varna; Punarvasu has the Sudra varna. Different varnas — traditionally considered less favourable.
✗ Nadi PoruthamKrittika is Adi nadi; Punarvasu is Adi nadi. Same nadi — Nadi dosha is traditionally flagged (health/offspring concern).
Krittika is Rakshasa gana (Sheep yoni, Adi nadi); Punarvasu is Deva gana (Cat yoni, Adi nadi). Their rashis are Mesha and Mithuna, ruled by Mars and Mercury.
