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 Poosam nakshatra woman for marriage?
For a woman born in Poosam , men born in Thiruvathirai, Punarpoosam, Poorattathi (pada 4) and Revathi are an uthamam (good) match; Rohini is madhyamam (fair).
Which stars match a Poosam nakshatra man for marriage?
For a man born in Poosam nakshatra, women born in Uthiram (pada 1) are an uthamam (good) match; Punarpoosam (pada 4) and Uthiram (padas 2, 3 and 4) are madhyamam (fair).
Do two Poosam stars match?
If both are Poosam, both share one rajju (Kati 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.
