The traditional method of relationship compatibility based upon the Moons of the couple determines

their fundamental compatibility. It measures the flow of the life force, or energy, between the two
people, whether harmonious or inharmonious. This energy must flow from a positive to a negative
terminal, just like a battery, for best results. Any obstructions to this flow may create a loss of power
and therefore inertia, or a short circuit that may quickly heat up and explode. Several of the
matchings measure to see if there is such an obstruction to the flow of the couple's energies. Vedha,
Rajju, and Strii-Diirgha are these most important matchings and any one of these that is afflicted will
cause serious difficulties within the relationship. If Rajju, Nadi, or Rasi are unacceptable, there may be
an exception present that wards off the great difficulties that may be created; the relationship will its
weaknesses, but ones that are workable. If Strii-Diirgha is afflicted, but the exception for Rasi Kuta is
met, then Strii-Diirgha will be OK as well.
In addition to the flow of energy, there must be high enough voltage. The total points of eight of the
Kutas determine this. The higher the score the more similar the "taste buds." This gives a greater
capacity for a compromise that allows both individuals to feel fundamentally good about what they're
getting. Seventeen points is the average, twenty or greater is ideal.
If the matching of the Moons is adequate the couple will have the capacity to relate in a manner that
allows the love to flow and for both of them to grow in a positive way. Karmic and behavioral factors
will modify to which extent they will fulfill this capacity. If the matching of the Moons is inadequate the
couple will find it difficult to flow together; their very life force will not harmonize well together. In this
case there is little that they can do, but to accept the fact that their energies collide or miss each other
at times. They can consciously attempt to create a better flow, but at times they will fall back onto
their natural, disruptive flow, especially during times of stress or fatigue.
Why the Moons? Because....
1. The Moon is the "Manas, Mind, in which lives the Jiva: the self, with Ahamkara, the Ego, the idea of
separate existence." -Sri Yukteswar. The Moon, therefore, indicates the compatibility of the two selves.
2. The Moon is the social planet that lets people's energies flow together. Whether the relationship
flows in such a manner as to create mutual respect and increase in love, or whether it flows in a
manner that causes disrespect and loss of love is largely dependent upon the Moon.
3. The Moon is the conditioned consciousness; what is most comfortable, familiar and innate to the
individual. It is most important for those living together and spending a great deal of time with each
other to be comfortable with each other and to offer support to one another.
Vedha- Obstruction
Fortunately you don't have the blemish of Vedha, which, had it been present, would have brought
many insurmountable obstacles to your desires for each other. This means that you two will be better
able to make the relationship what you want it to be, without attracting obstacles to your goals for
each other.
Rajju- Rope

Rajju, the second most terrible blemish, is not found in your compatibility. This is great news and
indicates that you both have the potential for a great relationship with a healthy degree of mutual
dependence, if you both are relatively mature and free from unhealthy codependent behavior. If one
or both of you are still learning how to have a healthy relationship then, since your compatibility is
free from the blemish of Rajju, you can learn together to have a relationship with a healthy degree of
mutual dependence.
Strii-Diirgha
You don't have Strii-Diirgha matching. This means that the distance from the woman's Moon to the
man's is not far enough; the shortest distance is from the woman's Moon to the man's. This causes
the creative energy in the relationship to flow from the receptively centered female to the action and
initiative centered male. Masculine energy and, therefore, most men feel most loved when their
thoughts and actions are respected. Feminine energy and, therefore, most women feel most loved
when their feelings are respected and they are loved for themselves, rather than for what they do.
Since Strii-Diirgha is not present the energy tends to flow from the woman to the man, causing her to
initiate more of what happens in the relationship. This causes the woman to wonder and question if
the man is really there for her; if he thinks of her and loves her, since she is doing more, investing
more, etc. in the relationship. She generally finds it more difficult, therefore, to feel secure in the
relationship. The man, in fact, usually does think of her, but before he is ready to begin or initiate
something, it is already getting too late for her and by then she feels like she has to get things
moving. She also does not have the opportunity to be cherished and loved for herself, since she is
more often thrown into the active, doing role in the relationship. The man also suffers as a result of
Strii-Diirgha not being present. Since the creative energy tends to flow from the woman to the man,
he has little opportunity to have his actions and thoughts respected, resulting in him not feeling loved.
Before he has finished a thought or initiated an action, the woman most likely has already done so or,
if not, she has already asked him to do it. If she has already done so, then there is no room for him to
be appreciated for what he may do for the woman. And worse, if she always asks him to do stuff, then
he begins to feel pressured or nagged.
Feminine energy bonds when it receives, masculine energy bonds when it gives. (When a woman
receives a gift from a man, she feels, "He loves me." When a man receives a gift from a woman, he
thinks, "Great, I don't have to spend my time shopping for underwear, etc." and then he may think,
"How nice/sweet of her." Only occasionally will he think, "Wow! She loves me.") Therefore, when StriiDiirgha is not present and the energy flows from the woman to the man and the woman is put into the
more active, doing, giving role and the man into the more receptive role, neither person bonds fully to
the other. However, feminine energy bonds stronger sexually than does masculine energy, so after
having sex the woman ends up being more bonded to the man than he is to her. Strii-Diirgha not
being present has not allowed the man the opportunity to invest in giving the necessary time, energy,
money, thoughts, etc. into the relationship that would bond him to the woman. The result is that
eventually the woman is more bonded to the man than he is to her and so even though she may do
everything for him, he will eventually leave her. That is why this matching is called Strii-Diirghalength of wife, if it is not present the relationship does not last long and the woman suffers most
because she ends up being the more bonded of the pair. If, on the other hand, the relationship does
last longer, then the woman usually ends up drained from all her doing, until finally she has to leave.
The lack of her being cherished and not receiving has not recharged her.

Since the communication between the two hemispheres of the brain in a woman's brain is much faster
than that in a man's, a woman has a lower capacity to do something she has planned when she no
longer feels like it than does the man, since her emotions can so suddenly override the rational,
determined side of her brain. Therefore, in times of duress in the relationship, since Strii-Diirgha is not
present, the woman, who may be emotionally sick of the relationship at the moment, is forced into the
role of deciding what to do with the relationship. At that moment, her emotions having a high capacity
to overrun the rational side of her brain can cause her to forget about the good the relationship has
given and any commitment made, she can only feel that the relationship is perhaps not meant to be.
So she goes to the man and says, "I don't think we should be together." The man replies, "maybe you
are right," because the lack of Strii-Diirgha has not allowed him to organize his thoughts and decide
how to handle this problem, and he doesn't want to risk infuriating or hurting the woman more by
arguing at that moment. This reply usually makes the woman feel worse, because what she really
needs to hear is, "We have a pretty good relationship and love each other, we can work this little
problem out, etc." Not hearing this, she does not feel secure in the relationship, and even if they do
get back together in a few days or few weeks time, the foundation of security has been weakened.
Since the communication between the two hemispheres of the brain in a man's brain is much slower
than that in a woman's, a man has a lower capacity to do take in something new when he is already
engaged with something else and see how he honestly feels about it. Therefore, since Strii-Diirgha is
not present and the energy in the relationship flows from the woman to the man, the woman may
often come to the man and propose something to him while he is otherwise engaged. It can actually
take him 20 minutes just to see how he feels about her proposal, during which time he is generally
feeling irritated, pressured or nagged and she is felling unimportant, not heard, or not cared about.
As can be seen, Strii-Diirgha not being present can create a host of problems. It is, in fact, one of the
main reasons that relationship fail after time. Fortunately the worst effects of Strii-Diirgha are avoided
and the relationship becomes possible if Rasi Kuta is met, or if there is an exception to Rasi Kuta not
being met, so keep reading and find out if you will be able to make this work.
Rasi
You don't have Rasi matching. This gives the same troublesome effects as not having Strii-Diirgha, as
already mentioned.
Classical texts state, "If the mans rasi is 4th from the woman's there will be poverty and enmity." This
position makes it very difficult for the couple to offer emotional support to each other.
Fortunately the lords of your Moon's are the same or friendly to each other and the most troublesome
effects of Rasi and Strii-Diirgha not being present are reduced. This means that you have more
similarities that will help keep you from disrespecting each other. So, with a reasonable amount of
work, growth and maturity, you can make this relationship work. It will never be as good as if Rasi
was present, but if there are real reasons to be with each other it will be well worth the extra work or
compromise required.
Nadi

Both of your Moons' Nadis are windy, this can create huge imbalances in each other and in your
relationship, so you do not gain 8 points towards your total compatibility score. Since both your Moons
are in a windy Nadi, you will find it more difficult to be grounded and focused when in each other's
presence. This not only creates difficulties in small things, like not having a clear idea of how to
proceed or what to do at times, but also with the big thing of what to do with the relationship. There
tends to be a lack of concrete goals for the relationship, which results in the woman eventually feeling
very insecure with the relationship, therefore, the classical texts state, "The woman will die when both
the Moons are in windy Nadis."
Fortunately, even though your Moons are of the same Nadi, the lords of your Moons are either the
same or friendly to each other, which reduces the negative effects of the excess fire, water or wind so
that it is not disastrous, only inconvenient at times. As a result of this, even in times of the stress that
having the same Nadi's can bring, you will feel connected to each other, which makes you feel like you
belong together even during those times of difficulty. During these times there will also be a greater
element of friendliness present that will reduce any disrespect you may cause each other during any
times that the excess fire, water, or wind causes a disturbance.
Bha "Sign" Kuta
Moons conjunct, in 7th from each other or in 3/11 or 4/10
Your Moon's are in favorable positions from one another. This helps you all share in your mutual goals.
Additionally, this also helps you all to be constructive together and build a productive life together.
Gana
The woman's Moon is in a Rakshasa (demonic) nakshatra and the man's Moon is in a Deva (angelic)
nakshatra, which is not good at all so you do not gain any points towards your compatibility score.
Women with their Moons in Rakshasa nakshatras are temperamental and their emotions can make
them go to extremes at times, and a man with his Moon in a Deva nakshatra will not be able to
appreciate her. Men with their Moon in a Deva nakshatra will be a bit too sensitive to handle a woman
like this and can find themselves feeling hurt quite often, even when it is not the intention of the
woman to do so. The man will also not have the ability to settle her at times when she is feeling an
extremely turbulent or depressing emotion, or when she goes off on some extreme tangent. Only
another man with his Moon also in a Rakshasa nakshatra can do that effectively. Though this can be
very stressful at times and cause you to wonder why you are with each other because you are so
different in some respects, if Vedha, Rajju, Strii-Diirgha and your Total Points are okay, you can still
have a decent relationship together.
Fortunately, even though the woman has her Moon in a Rakshasa nakshatra and the man doesn't, the
lords of your Moons are the same or friendly towards each other. You, therefore, have the extra bit of
affinity that will help you understand each other and you will be able to maintain a feeling of friendship
that will prevent you from disrespecting each other. As long as Vedha, Rajju and your Total Points are
okay, you will, therefore, be able to have a decent relationship.
Graha Maitram

The lords of your Moons' rasis are the same or friendly, which gains 5 points towards your total
compatibility score and greatly supports your affinity and like-mindedness. You will have many similar
tastes and be very comfortable with the same types of things. There will be greater feelings of
friendship and mutual understanding, and compromise, when necessary, will be quite easy. You will
also react to situations very similarly, which can allow you to operate like partners in more situations.
Yoni
The Yonies of your Moon's are the same, which is excellent and earns 4 points towards your total
compatibility score. Your deeper, primal, instinctual natures are identical. You will be better able to
share any intense experiences, including sex, and be better able to deal with intense situations
together.
The sexes of your Yonies are different, which helps your deeper, primal and instinctual natures to
connect. You will better be able to enjoy and bond through intense experiences.
Tara
You do not have Tara matching, so you do not earn 3 points towards your total compatibility score.
The Man's Moon falls in an unfavorable nakshatra from the woman's, thereby reducing the possibility
that she feels good about what he proposes to her. It can therefore be a bit more difficult for the
woman to be cherished and the man to be appreciated for what he does. This will only be a problem if
one or both or you tend to be demanding, in which case one or both of you will end up feeling
disrespected and not very loved. If, on the other hand, you are both easy going and not pushy or
demanding, then Tara not being met will cause no real problems as long as your Total Points are okay.
Vasya "Dutiful" Kuta
One Moon Vasya to the other.
The person who's Moon is Vasya to the other will be more attuned to what it is that the other needs,
and will more happily provide that need because they understand it. The other will appreciate this and,
as a result, feel more devoted to the other. This gains you 1 point towards your total compatibility
score.
Varna
The man's Moon is in a Vaishya rasi and the woman's in a Sudra rasi, earning 1 point towards your
compatibility score. The man's desire to explore life and pursue interests will stimulate and excite the
woman's to pursue more interests as well.
Total Points
Following Vedha, Rajju and Strii-Diirgha, the next most important factor to consider in your
compatibility is the total points gained through the 8 matchings: Nadi, Rasi, Gana, Graha Maitram,
Yoni, Tara, Vasya and Varna. The Moon represents nourishment and what you need to feel nourished,
not just in the sense of food, but anything that you take in, through any of your senses, which all

serve to stimulate your life force one way or another, and which have a subtle influence on your
mental and physical well-being . The total points between your Moons indicate the similarity of your
needs and your ability to both be fulfilled and happy with continued exposure to each other. The
higher the points the more you will feel like the same thing at the same time. You will be on a more
similar 'wavelength' and have more similar 'taste-buds.' This makes it easy and natural for both of you
to be fulfilled. If the points are low, you will have different needs and require different things in order
to feel comfortable and 'right.'
The total points between your Moons is 18.0.
Your points are average. This means that on occasion you both may have some different needs to
fulfill and that a bit more compromise will be necessary at times. Your points are not so low as to raise
alarm, and if Vedha, Rajju and Strii-Diirgha are acceptable, you can have quite a decent relationship.
There will be a bit less mental rapport than ideal, but not so much less as to actually cause problems.
Just be aware that you may have to make a little more effort to communicate clearly with each other
because you won't always be on the same 'wavelength.' Occasionally you may also have different
cravings or needs, but if you are willing to make allowances for these times and both fulfill your needs
independently you will be able to have quite a good long term relationship.
Mahendra
You don't have Mahendra, which is a special inner connection that helps a couple find long-term soul
purpose in their relationship and which can help make your relationship more and more meaningful.
This is not a common connection and is not necessary; many very successful marriages do not have
Mahendra. Just be sure you are getting involved for good reasons and that you have mutual long term
interests, hopes and desires to share so that you continue to find meaning and purpose in your
relationship. If your relationship is founded upon frivolous things you will quite likely find out in the
future that there is really not that much purpose in being together.
Vasya "Subjected To Another"
Vasya is not present between your Moons. Vasya is an uncommon connection that creates a bit
stronger of a bond between the couple. When present it adds a bit of attraction that insures that the
couple wants to stay together. When not present it really does not make much difference by itself.
This is a different Vasya than the previously mentioned Vasya. This Vasya results in a magnetic
attraction instead of the attunement to each other's needs as the does the other Vasya.
Prasna Marga states, "If the couple loves each other, they can enter into wedlock, even if there is no
agreement in other ways. This is very important in the matter of marriage. One who loves a girl
sincerely, from his heart should marry her. Pure love is greater than any other virtue."
This is to say that you should marry whom you want, but that does not mean that your compatibility
should be ignored. It does not mean that love will remove the blemishes of poor compatibility. It only
means that if you think it is worth having the relationship, even in the face of greater than average
difficulties, you should. Poor compatibility indicates that the price of the relationship will be higher. It
will take more time, energy, work, patience, and there will be more distress and ups and downs if your

compatibility is poor. If you find it worth paying that price, then you should go ahead with the
relationship. Look at the compatibility in order to really see what the relationship is, to really see if you
want the relationship, and to see if you can realistically do what is necessary. The average person
finds a relationship that fails Vedha, Rajju, Strii-Diirgha or Points eventually becomes more than they
can realistically handle, so if any of these are missing, take a very good look at your relationship.
This is also to say that even if the compatibility is good, if one or both of you cannot love and relate
healthily then you will not be able to take advantage of a good compatibility. If the compatibility is
good and you are still having problems you will have to take a good hard look at yourselves. The good
news is, that if the compatibility is good, any work you do on yourself will support and benefit the
relationship. The relationship will also be a better arena for you to learn what you need in as healthy a
manner as possible. If on the other hand, the compatibility is not good, then even if you work on
yourself the relationship will not benefit much, or even at all, and you will find yourself in situations
with your partner that really bring out the worst.
The important point about this method of compatibility is that, it indicates whether the relationship will
flow in such a manner as to create mutual respect. Out of respect grows love, out of disrespect grow
hurt feelings and frustration. When it comes to arranged marriages, this compatibility is, therefore,
obviously important. When it comes to modern society that marries out of love, it is equally important,
because after years of mutual disrespect many, many couples that once loved each other divorce.
Mutual respect is the key to all human relationships, because from that grows real love.

I have been studying and practicing Vedic Astrology for a very long time And one of the things that
fascinates me about it is that using an ancient, yet powerful compatibility technique, Im able to look into
any relationship and break it down into fifteen steps explaining why some aspects of your love can be so
right, while others can be oh-so-wrong.
This compatibility technique is the one used in the Right Man Report and its helped thousands of women
make the most of what their stars have in store just by understanding all fifteen elements of their
compatibility with a man.
Below I summarize some of the most critical of them, so you can have an idea of how important and
powerful they are in your love life.

Obstacles (known as Vedha Kuta)

When you have the connection of obstacles between you, youll face constant challenges in trying to be
together. As soon as you overcome one problem, another arises. Other lovers, family dramas, money
dilemmas, geographic distance, unsupportive friends and health issues seem to plague your love at every
turn, getting in the way of your ability to make a full life together, no matter how much you both want to.
When obstacles arent present between you, youll easily be able to overcome any outside interference
and join your lives.

Misfortune (known as Rajju Kuta)

When you have the connection of misfortune, its difficult to relax and enjoy each other or your
relationship. Just as you start to get comfortable and cozy, its as if you trip over a landmine a big
drama seems to hit out of the blue. You wont even know what happened who said what, or how it
started but youll suddenly feel torn apart and extremely upset. This can reveal itself as a lack of shared
goals, constant confusion as to what youre supposed to do together (Should we just be friends? Should we
get married? Should we get divorced?) and an endless one step forward, two steps back gyration to your
romance. When you dont have the connection of misfortune between your stars, you enjoy a far greater
chance of being able to have your connection easily unfold and grow.

Respect (known as Strii Diirgha)

When you dont have the right balance of respect, it causes a role-reversal relationship. The woman will
feel like shes always the one trying to convince the man to be with her. Shell feel more invested in the
relationship, and like anything that happens between them, its because it was her idea and she made it
happen. By the time he calls or makes a plan, shes frustrated. Over time this makes a woman feel
unloved, and a man feel pressured like no matter what he does for her, its never enough. This can take
a while to notice, but over time will really erode the once-good feelings you enjoyed. When you have the
right balance of respect between your stars, youll naturally be close and connected. The man will attend
to the woman and in turn, shell appreciate him.

We all have a true self under our social mask. It

comes out in times of crisis or extreme stress, or
during the more intense aspects of physical intimacy.
Excess (known as Nadi Kuta)
We all have a primary fundamental disposition with which we react to the world emotionally sensitive,
fiery and high-strung or analytical. In love, its best if two people complement one another. If youre the
same, youll amplify each others tendency to feel intensely, react impulsively or think too much, hence the
term excess. So, two emotional types become excessively emotional together, making everything a
bigger drama than it needs to be. Two fiery types get easily annoyed and irritated by one another, and
cant stop arguing. Two intellectual types will put everything under their mental microscopes, and
question and evaluate every move they make together. If you and a lover are of different energies, you
wont trigger each other in these ways and will feel more secure and at ease.

Temperament (known as Gana Kuta)

We all have an inborn point of view that has a great deal to do with our values, beliefs, attitudes and ways
of being. Unlike with the last step, excess, its best if you and a partner are of the same temperament.
This allows you to have the same sensibilities and tastes youll laugh at the same things, want to see the
same movies and agree on everything from politics to wallpaper. Best of all, when you share
temperaments, you truly GET each other when youre upset, your partner will understand, and when
youre hurt, theres no need to explain yourself. You wont freak each other out or shut each other down,
and so you will feel connected even through tough times. When you arent of the same temperament,
however, youll both feel you have to explain yourselves too much or that you just dont understand
each other.

Instinctive Compatibility (known as Yoni Kuta)

We all have a true self under our social mask. It comes out in times of crisis or extreme stress, or during
the more intense aspects of physical intimacy. When you and another are compatible in this way, youll be
able to bond through intense experiences (like between the sheets) and stay close and connected during
difficulties. Your instinctive nature can be disruptive to someone elses, just so-so or very harmonious.
Very harmonious couples have the most mind-blowing sexual connection, while couples that are
disruptive to one another may find themselves disappointed or bored with this part of their relationship.

Magnetic Attraction (known as Vasya)

Sometimes two people seem like true soul mates. They feel a magical wow, that defies logic and reason
and is obvious to everyone around them. A couple can really be in love without this extra celestial
blessing, but if this is also present, theyll have an extremely hard time resisting one another or staying
apart if they should ever break up. (Yes, even Brad and Angie have this!) If you have this with a lover, then
youd better be compatible in other ways or youll both feel over the Moon, but miserable at the same time.
The old, cant live with em, cant live without em syndrome

Sense of Purpose (known as Mahendra)

Couples that have the connection of sense of purpose feel just that a deep feeling of meaning and
satisfaction that grows and grows with time, making them feel they truly belong together and are meant
to be. Even if they have a lot of disagreement or differences, theyll share a strong bond that will draw
them back to each other again and again. Like magnetic attraction, it can work against a couple, causing
them to feel that they have to work things out even when they shouldnt But if their compatibility is
otherwise good, this gives them shared goals and that this is it! feeling we all long for.

Assertive Pressure
Ideally, two people come together as equals, and share a healthy balance of power in which both of their
feelings and opinions matter. When you have the same level of force as your mate, this naturally occurs.
You both have a say in your lives, and can find a happy solution or compromise to any issue. When one of
you has more assertive pressure however, this will be a problem. The more forceful of you will naturally
always get their way, and the other will constantly give in or feel powerless in the face of what their lover
wants. Over time, the less assertive partner will become increasingly resentful, and will usually leave,
citing this as the main reason why.
