What is Gana dosha in kundli matching?

Gana is one of the eight kootas worth 6 points. It classifies Nakshatras into Deva (divine), Manushya (human), and Rakshasa (demonic), and mismatches create Gana dosha.

Deva Gana Nakshatras bring divine, gentle energy; Manushya Gana is human and balanced; Rakshasa Gana is intense and strong-willed.

Ideally, both partners should have the same Gana or a Deva-Manushya combination.

A Rakshasa-Deva or Rakshasa-Manushya mismatch can create friction, but it is often considered mild compared to Nadi or Bhakoot dosha.

Gana dosha is considered cancelled if the Moon signs are friendly or if the male partner has a benefic chart.
