Questions people ask
How is porutham counted?
Most poruthams count from the bride's birth star to the groom's birth star, including both. For example, if the bride is Ashwini and the groom is Rohini, the count is 4. Rasi porutham counts the same way between the two rasis.
Which poruthams matter most?
Many Tamil families give the most weight to rajju, then dina, gana, yoni, rasi and vedhai. Customs differ between families and regions, so talk it over with your elders.
How many poruthams are enough?
Families commonly look for 6 or more of the 10, with rajju matching. Matching stars is one part of the tradition; the couple's own understanding and care for each other matter most.
Does it check chevvai dosham?
Yes. With birth details, the place of Mars (chevvai) is worked out for both. With only the star, pick the lagna and the sign of Mars from the printed horoscope. The page shows the house Mars sits in, the relief rules that apply, and that when both have it, by tradition it balances out.
We only know the star. Is that enough?
Yes. Pick the star and, if you know it, the pada. Stars that sit in two rasis ask which rasi it is. You can also enter full birth details and the star is worked out for you.
Is anything sent anywhere?
No. The matching runs on your phone or computer. The names and dates stay with you.
