Bhakoot Dosha: Understanding Its Impacts And Successful Solutions

In India, there is a culture of finding the right partner for marriage through the Ashtakoot Milan system. In this system, the kundlis, or the birth chart of the prospective bride & groom is matched to ascertain the number of gunas. In Astrology, there are 8 gunas namely, Varn, Bhakoot, Vashya, Yoni, Tara, Grahmaitri, Nadi, and Gana. Each guna is assigned a different value or number. A minimum of 18 points are required for the matchmaking of that particular couple. However, the Bhakoot Dosha effect is said to highly influence a couple since it carries the maximum weight out of all the Gunas. Therefore, it is important to get rid of the Bhakoot Dosha in a marriage.

Meaning Of Bhakoot

Bhakoot Guna is one of the major Guna during matchmaking as it consists of a maximum of 7 points. As per Vedic Astrology, when the Moon signs in a couple’s birth chart are making unfavorable combinations then it is known as the Bhakoot Dosh.

To match the compatibility of a couple, the Astrologers use a Bhakoot Guna table. If the bride & groom are positioned at 2/12, 6/8, or 5/9 from each other in the Bhakoot table then the couple is said to get 0 points and this leads to the Bhakoot Dosha. The minimum score required for compatibility must be 7. Thus, if a couple has a combination of 1/1, 3/11, 1/7, or 4/10, then it gives a score of 7/7. Numbers 2, 5, 12, 9, and similar others depict the Zodiac signs’ position in the Guna table. To illustrate, 2 represents the Taurus sign while 12 stands for Pisces at a position of 2/12. Let’s have a look at some unfavorable combinations.

• Aries boy & Virgo girl: In this scenario, the boy’s moon is positioned at the 8th from the Moon of the girl, while the girl’s sign is placed at the 6th from that of the boy. Thus, here the combination of 6-8 is formed. The Bhakoot 6-8 is believed to be a very dangerous combination since it can affect the couple's health. 
• Bhakoot 12-2: A couple with a combination in their Kundli might have to face a bad financial situation along with health complications in their marriage. 
• It is possible for one of the partners to die if malefic beliefs other than Bhakoot are present in their birth chart. Moreover, this also indicates an unhappy marriage can result in divorce due to disagreements and fights.

Bhakoot Dosha's effects can be very dangerous for a couple who is looking forward to getting married. This dosha can lead to some severe marital life issues. A couple with Bhakoot Dosha in their Kundli can witness the following effects.
