Common questions
- What is Gana dosha?
- Gana groups nakshatras into Dev, Manushya and Rakshasa. Same Gana scores 6 of 6, and the worst clash scores 0. Classical texts read it as a match of temperament between the two.
- What are the cancellation rules for Gana dosha?
- We check two rules: both Moon signs have the same lord, or the two lords are mutual friends. Each is named on this page and in your result.
- Does a cancelled Gana dosha still lose points?
- Yes. Cancellation does not add the lost points back to the total. Your result shows the score as it is and the dosha line says which named rule applies.
- Should we decide a marriage on Gana dosha alone?
- No. It is one factor next to the 36-point total, the other doshas and both charts. Check your pair on our free tool and take the printed result to a pandit you trust.
- 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.
