Common questions
- Which nakshatras match best with Dhanishta?
- For a Boy born under Dhanishta, the highest totals out of 36 come with Shatabhisha, Vishakha, Krittika, Shravana, Mula, reaching 33. The score can move a little with the pada (charan), so the table shows the lowest and highest total for each pair. Treat it as a first filter, then ask your pandit to check the full charts.
- Is the Nadi dosha a problem for Dhanishta?
- Dhanishta is Madhya Nadi. When both stars share a Nadi, the Nadi koota scores 0 of 8, and 9 of the 27 partner stars fall in that group. This is called Nadi dosha. Classical cancellation rules exist, and our result page names each one that applies, so check the full match before you decide.
- What if the boy and the girl are both born under Dhanishta?
- The same star gives the same Nadi, so Nadi dosha shows up in the table for that pair. Some traditions allow it when the pada differs, and others do not. Enter both birth dates to see the exact total and the rules that apply, and show the printed report to your pandit.
- Why is the table different for Boy and for Girl?
- Some kootas, such as Varna and Vashya, are not symmetric: they read differently when the Boy and the Girl swap. We therefore show one table for a Boy (Var) born under Dhanishta and one for a Girl (Kanya). Birth time and place are not needed for this table, only the star.
- Is it free? Are there ads?
- Yes, it is free, and there are no ads. There is no sign-up or login either. Birth details are never kept on our servers. The API and MCP server are free too.
