one answer
Jyeshtha and Shravana come to 19–22 of 36 with Jyeshtha on the bride's side and 19–22 with Shravana on it. What sits behind those two figures: Bhakoot and Nadi score in full, while Gana (1 of 6), Graha Maitri (0.5 of 5), Tara (1.5 of 3), Yoni (1–3 of 4), Vashya (0–1 of 2) and Varna (0 of 1) do not, and Gana on its own accounts for 5 of the guna that go missing.
A boundary is crossed and the result survives it: Shravana passes the mid-point of Capricorn after pada 2, which moves it from the Chatushpada vashya group into Jalachar. Vashya reads differently either side of it, and yet every one of the sixteen combinations still lands on 19 of 36 on the conservative reading. 120 of the 351 pairs are untouched by the pada altogether; this one is one of 26 touched everywhere except in the total.
Koota by Koota
Pada 1 on each side, and what every koota is reading for Jyeshtha with Shravana. Varna and Gana are the two directional tests, which is why each name gets a column: Varna and Gana differ between them.
| Koota | Jyeshtha bride | Shravana bride | What it reads |
|---|---|---|---|
| Varna / 1 | 0 | 1 | Shravana: Vaishya · Jyeshtha: Brahmin |
| Vashya / 2 | 0–1 | 0–1 | Shravana: Chatushpada · Jyeshtha: Keet |
| Tara / 3 | 1.5 | 1.5 | Counting from Jyeshtha: Pratyari (5) · from Shravana: Sadhaka (6) |
| Yoni / 4 | 1–3 | 1–3 | Shravana: Monkey · Jyeshtha: Deer |
| Graha Maitri / 5 | 0.5 | 0.5 | Shravana: Saturn · Jyeshtha: Mars |
| Gana / 6 | 1 | 0 | Shravana: Deva · Jyeshtha: Rakshasa |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 7 | 7 | Capricorn and Scorpio — 3/11 |
| Nadi / 8 | 8 | 8 | Shravana: Antya (Kapha) · Jyeshtha: Adi (Vata) |
| Total / 36 | 19–22 | 19–22 | Acceptable |
- Gana, 1 of 6 — Shravana: Deva · Jyeshtha: Rakshasa. Directional: swap the partners and the same two ganas score differently.
- Graha Maitri, 0.5 of 5 — Shravana: Saturn · Jyeshtha: Mars. Five guna ride on how the two sign lords regard each other, more than any other single test.
- Tara, 1.5 of 3 — Counting from Jyeshtha: Pratyari (5) · from Shravana: Sadhaka (6). One count of the two is inauspicious and the other is not, which halves the koota.
- Yoni, 1–3 of 4 — Shravana: Monkey · Jyeshtha: Deer. Not the same animal, not a hostile pair, so the graded middle.
- Vashya, 0–1 of 2 — Shravana: Chatushpada · Jyeshtha: Keet. Neither the same group nor the agreed zero, so the graded middle where lineages differ.
- Varna, 0 of 1 — Shravana: Vaishya · Jyeshtha: Brahmin. The groom's rank has to reach the bride's and does not. One guna, and no tradition treats it as disqualifying.
Half-guna figures are exact rather than rounded. Each koota’s rule is set out in full on Jyeshtha’s table and Shravana’s.
All Sixteen Pada Combinations
Jyeshtha runs Scorpio 16°40′ – 30°00′ and Shravana runs Capricorn 10°00′ – 23°20′ — two arcs 13°20′ wide, each divided into four padas of 3°20′, which puts the two Moons anywhere between 40°00′ and 66°40′ apart. Every cell below holds two totals: Jyeshtha as bride first, Shravana as bride second. All sixteen read alike, so the padas can be left out of this one.
| Jyeshtha ↓ / Shravana → | Pada 1Capricorn | Pada 2Capricorn | Pada 3Capricorn | Pada 4Capricorn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pada 1Scorpio | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 |
| Pada 2Scorpio | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 |

| Pada 4Scorpio | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 | 19 / 19 |
Strict reading of the two disputed kootas throughout. The generous reading of Yoni and Vashya adds 3 guna to every cell. All sixteen combinations clear the conventional threshold of 18. Dimmed cells fall below it; the nakshatra finder returns the pada from a birth date, time and place.
The Two Doshas, and Whether They Are Cancelled
Fifteen of the 36 guna sit in these two, and both are all-or-nothing. Their cancellations are stated specifically enough to be checked for Jyeshtha and Shravana rather than guessed at.
Nadi Koota — 8 of 8
Jyeshtha is Adi (Vata) and Shravana is Antya (Kapha). Different nadis take the full eight guna, and since Nadi alone is more than a fifth of the total, this pair starts from a position 108 of the 351 pairs never reach.
Bhakoot Koota — 7 of 7 at pada 1
Capricorn and Scorpio — 3/11 — outside the three forbidden distances of 6/8, 5/9 and 2/12, and it stays outside them in all sixteen pada combinations. Bhakoot is full at seven throughout.
A cancellation is relief, not a score adjustment — the koota still reads zero above. The doshas Ashtakoot does not test for are a separate question — Mangal dosha among them.
Two Tests Outside the 36
The South Indian reckoning runs to ten kootas, and two of the extras are counts between Jyeshtha and Shravana alone — so they can be given here and checked by hand.
- Mahendra — absent. Mahendra wants every third star from the fourth — 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25 — and Jyeshtha to Shravana is 5. The two counts always add to 29, so a Mahendra pair holds whichever way round the match is made.
- Stri-Dirgha — satisfied one way. This one is directional in earnest: 5 from Jyeshtha and 24 from Shravana, against a threshold sources give as seven or as nine. It holds with Shravana as the bride and not with Jyeshtha.
Neither test touches the 36. Muhurta nature is a different question again — Jyeshtha is Tikshna (sharp), Shravana is Chara (movable) — and it governs what each star suits doing, not who it marries.
How the Pair Ranks on Each Side
A total carries meaning against the alternatives rather than on its own, and the alternatives differ for the two stars: 19 of 36 puts Shravana 13th among Jyeshtha's 27 possible partners and Jyeshtha 16th among Shravana's, both on the pada-1 figures those two tables print.
In Jyeshtha’s table
13th of 27
Shravana scores 19 there, level with 1 other partner. Jyeshtha’s 27 partners run from 4 to 31 with a median of 19, so this one sits on the middle of what Jyeshtha can reach — all 27 rows.
In Shravana’s table
16th of 27
Jyeshtha scores 19 there outright. Shravana’s 27 partners run from 3.5 to 28 with a median of 20.5, so this one sits below the middle of what Shravana can reach — all 27 rows.
What This Total Is Not
Across every pairing of two Moon positions that can exist, 63.6% clear 18 and the median total is 20.5, so clearing the conventional bar is the ordinary result rather than a distinction. The ceiling is 35, not 36 — no pairing of Jyeshtha and Shravana or of anything else reaches a perfect score, and a site reporting one has added something to the arithmetic.
Written rather than computed, and worth the longer read: Venus, and what it decides about a marriage and the Kundli Milan guide written from these numbers. The full profiles of the two stars — deities, symbols, temperament, the syllables used for naming — are on the Jyeshtha page and the Shravana page.
