Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to use the Porutham calculator?
You need the birth star (nakshatram) and moon sign (rasi) of the bride and the groom. Both are printed on a jathakam or can be found from the exact date, time and place of birth.
How many poruthams should match?
Many astrologers look for a majority of the ten poruthams, with Rajju and Yoni considered especially important. Your family astrologer will advise based on the full chart.
Can an online calculator replace an astrologer?
No. An online tool is useful for a quick first check, but a detailed reading from an experienced astrologer is generally more reliable.
Does a missing porutham mean the match is impossible?
Not necessarily. Views differ between astrologers, and many families treat horoscope matching as one factor among many. It is worth getting a second opinion before deciding.
