How this list is worked out
Every star, under the rasi it falls in (36 rows), is matched by the same rules the /porutham/ calculator uses. Eight or more of ten with all five of Dinam, Ganam, Yoni, Rasi and Rajju is uthamam; six or seven, again with all five, is madhyamam. When both share one rajju the grade does not rise whatever the count. 'Vedhai stars' means tradition holds the two stars to be vedhai to each other.
The Kongu and Sri Lankan Tamil rule sets count differently; switch the rule set in the /porutham/ calculator for those.
Frequently asked
Which stars match a Kettai nakshatra woman for marriage?
For a woman born in Kettai , men born in Karthigai (padas 2, 3 and 4), Chithirai and Visakam are an uthamam (good) match.
Which stars match a Kettai nakshatra man for marriage?
For a man born in Kettai nakshatra, women born in Sadayam are an uthamam (good) match.
Do two Kettai stars match?
If both are Kettai, both share one rajju (Pada Rajju). Tradition looks at this more closely: under the Tamil Nadu rule set the grade is neither uthamam nor madhyamam even with 5 of 10 poruthams. Talk it over with your family astrologer.
Does it change if the bride's and groom's stars are swapped?
It can. Dinam, Mahendram, Stree Deergham and others count the groom's star from the bride's, so this page lists the matches for a woman and for a man separately.
