Melapaka · marriage chart matching
Two charts, read against each other. The eight kootas and the thirty-six, and then the part no calculator gives you: where these two will find things easy, where they will have to work, and five questions answered.
Five parts
- Each chart on its own, then how the two go together area by area.
- The eight kutas and the thirty-six, with what each line rests on, and Kuja dosha read across both charts.
- Five questions answered from both charts with dates. It gives the score and leaves the decision with the families.
Part one reads each of them from the seventh house, the house a marriage is read from in a chart on its own. The score carries the four older tests with it — Mahendra, Stree-Deergha, Rajju and Vedha. Five questions are included; more at $11.99 each, up to thirteen. Both charts are printed in full at the back. The PDF is in your email within an hour.
The decision stays with the families
A chart informs a marriage; the families decide it, and the classical writers say so plainly. B.V. Raman, whose chapter this reading is built from, holds that horoscopes should be judged on more than the kootas — the health and the length of both lives, the strength of the seventh house in each chart — and this reading examines those too. It gives the score, says what each part of it is held to mean and what the texts set against it, and leaves the decision with the families.
The first koota, temperament, is scored on the element of the Moon’s sign, so the total is out of thirty-six and comparable with any other astrologer’s figure.
Read from your chart
A Melapaka, the marriage chart matching, reads two charts. Either of them can also be read on their own. Darshanam, the free five-week reading, is built from your birth minute, and brings your kundali with it.
