Relationship Analysis
INTRODUCTION
Relationship Analysis or birth chart matching implies the compatibility between two persons on the emotional, mental, ideological and behavioural fronts when they want to enter into a relationship. It involves arriving at a conclusion whether they would support and co-operate with each other or which aspects would be strong or weak in the relationship. The later aspect has to be given special emphasis, as the birth chart is the indicator of the internal as well as external traits in the personality of a person. Thus, in a way we are comparing the different traits of a person from different angles such as ascendant matching, House matching (Sun-Moon matching), 7th house matching and planetary matching (8-fold test) and arriving at a conclusion whether to give the astrological consent for getting or not getting into a relationship.

COMPATIBILITY ANALYSIS FROM DIFFERENT ASPECTS (8-FOLD TESTS)
Kundali Milapak is a unique and ancient 8-fold test of horoscope matching between a man and woman's charts for marriage. This ancient technique of Vedic Astrology was formulated about 3,000 years ago and compares various aspects of the natal chart taking the Moon sign in the chart as the primary factor.
The Natal Charts of the man and woman are drawn and comparatively tested in eight different ways. Each test has a score. While the maximum points that can be achieved under each test are different, the 8-fold test can yield a maximum score of 36 points. A score of 16 is deemed to be the minumn for a reasonable match. Marriages are not recommended for a result below 16.
Modern Relevance
Since these tests were formulated 3,000 years ago and based on the social norms and the role of marriage in the ancient society, we have also made this ancient test applicable to the new millennium by pointing out the basis of how the tests were scored, so that you can apply your own judgment of how important a particular aspect is in your personal relationship.
Although the techniques and the basis of this comparison originated in ancient times, the analysis has not lost its relevance today. This analysis brings out the difference in personality and nature between two people in a quantitative and more precise manner than any other astrological tool. It proves to be very accurate and relevant even today in gauging compatibility and the areas of strengths and weakness in a relationship.
The Scoring System
In presenting you this analysis, we have maintained the integrity of ancient principles in the scoring system and the weightage given to various aspects. However, we want you to understand the principles behind it completely, so that you can understand the various aspects of your relationship in which you are completely compatible and where the problem areas may lie so that you are able to work on it.
In ancient times, the fundamental purpose of marriage was to carry on the lineage in a manner that increased the material and spiritual prosperity of the couple within the norms of social behaviors in that time. It is also to be understood that Women had been relegated to a subordinate or inferior role in the Man/Woman Relationship. The role of the woman, be it the Queen or the wife of an ordinary man in society, was at home and the primary responsibility was to look after the comforts of the husband, take care of the children as well as his parents and his entire family.
The system by which this test assigns scores is that when and if in a relationship, the horoscope chart of a woman rates higher and is superior in intellectual, mental or physical powers than the chart of the man’s, then the test will fail and there will be a low score or a zero score. The highest score is also given in this test in a woman’s ability to be a mother.
We encourage you to study this test very closely for its ability to point out the difference in personality and ego between two different people and their strengths and weakness in maintaining a nurturing, caring and growing relationship over time.
The First Test:
Mental Compatibility (Varna)
![]()
This test has a maximum value of 1 point and shows the basic potential of a person and the person’s inherent skills and abilities. This also includes the personal egos of the partners and compatibility between their egos. A partnership in which the woman has higher intellectual and spiritual qualities will score low in this test.
For purposes of this test, personalities are divided into four classes to indicate potential and inherent abilities. They are as follows:
Brahmin or Priests – They are the intellectuals and philosophers. Their role in society is that of a Guru or a teacher. They were traditionally spiritual leaders and were not expected to perform physical labor. Society looked up to them and looked after them. They have a high development of spiritual and mental ability.
Kshatriya or Warriors – They form the leaders and the ruling class who are powerful people and master of strategy and battle. They were traditionally the Kings and protectors of society. They are considered very courageous and are decisive in their actions.
Vaishya or Merchants/Business people – They belong to the professional or business class of people who perform all the useful and economic functions of society. They are skilled in different crafts and professions, signifying tremendous abilities.
Shudra or Laborers/Service people — They belong to the normal hard-working class who had a tremendous sense of service to society. Majority of the work in society fell upon them; hence they also have an inherent sense of responsibility.

This test rates the relationship of the birth stars as reflected in each partner’s natal chart. There are 9 categories of birth stars—Janama, Sampat, Vipata, Kshema, Pratyari, Sadhaka, Vadha, Mitra and Ati-mitra. The counting is done from Her Birth Star to that of His and from His Birth Star to that of Her. If by dividing each of them by the other, the remainder comes to 3, 5, 7 then the Tara is inauspicious. If the remainder comes to 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 then it is auspicious. The points are determined according to the auspicious and inauspicious Birth Stars of both the partners.
