Mrigashira & Dhanishta · Thirumana Porutham
4 / 10 Poruthams
Difficult match — several poruthams fail; a detailed astrologer review is strongly advised.
The 10 Poruthams
✗ Dina PoruthamCount from Mrigashira to Dhanishta is 19. This count is considered less favourable for the daily rhythm of the marriage.
✗ Gana PoruthamMrigashira is Deva gana; Dhanishta is Rakshasa gana. Deva-Rakshasa and Manusha-Rakshasa combinations are traditionally considered incompatible.
✗ Yoni PoruthamMrigashira has the Serpent yoni; Dhanishta has the Lion yoni. These yonis are neutral — acceptable compatibility.
✗ Rasi PoruthamMrigashira is in Taurus; Dhanishta is in Capricorn. Count from one rasi to the other is 9. This rasi position is considered less favourable.
✓ Rasiyathipathi PoruthamThe lords of the two rashis are Venus and Saturn, who are friends. Acceptable lord compatibility.
✓ Vasya PoruthamOne rasi has natural control over the other — mutual understanding comes easily.
✗ Rajju PoruthamMrigashira is in the Madhya rajju group; Dhanishta is in the Madhya group. Same group — Rajju dosha is traditionally flagged; many families perform pariharam.
✓ Vedha PoruthamNo Vedha (obstruction) between these nakshatras.
✓ Varna PoruthamMrigashira has the Vaisya varna; Dhanishta has the Vaisya varna. Same varna — traditionally considered good.
✗ Nadi PoruthamMrigashira is Adi nadi; Dhanishta is Adi nadi. Same nadi — Nadi dosha is traditionally flagged (health/offspring concern).
Mrigashira is Deva gana (Serpent yoni, Adi nadi); Dhanishta is Rakshasa gana (Lion yoni, Adi nadi). Their rashis are Vrishabha and Makara, ruled by Venus and Saturn.
