In this horoscope compatibility checking method, 10 Poruthams for marriage are compared. As per Tamil Astrology, it includes the comparison of the Birth Star (Janam Nakshatra) and Birth Zodiac (Janam Rasi) of a boy and a girl to check the level of their marriage compatibility and marital bliss in the future.
Based on ancient Vedic calculations, Thirumana Porutham horoscope matching in Tamil is the best horoscope match for marriage. It is the easiest way to find a life partner or know if you and your partner are a perfect match and how successful your marriage life will be in the future.
How Thirumana Porutham Horoscope Matching is done?
Thirumana horoscope matching for marriage is done through Poruthams or Koots. Originally, the ancient sages charted 20 Poruthams or Koots in Tamil Jothidam. However, today, only 10 Poruthams or Nakshatra Poruthams are considered to check the marriage compatibility between a boy and a girl.
The Porutham or Koots is an important aspect of astrology that defines the personality, mind, body and other compatibility factors of a couple. Tamil astrologers analyze the effects of each Porutham individually in Tamil Jathagam to predict marital compatibility and Jathaka matches.
According to Vedic Tamil astrology, marriage compatibility in Tamil is defined through three compatibility levels-
- Uthamam, (Good)
- Madhyamam (Not Bad)
- Adhamam (Bad)
For marriage, one must have Madhyamam Porutham. Madhyamam is 6 or 7 Poruthams including the 5 Poruthams- Dinam, Ganam, Yoni, Rasi and Rajju. While Uthamam is 8 or more Porutham points and Adhamam is o or less than 5 points. As Tamil astrology, Uthamam is an excellent Porutham or horoscope match for marriage whereas Adhamam is the bad Porutham or unfavorable marriage point. One should avoid marriage with Adhamam Jathagam Porutham for marriage. In a nutshell, the more the Porutham points a couple gets in Thirumana Prutham horoscope matching, the higher the marriage compatibility they exhibit.

Dina Porutham
Also referred to as Dina Koota, Dina Porutham is the first and important Porutham that is checked in Tamil Jathagam Porutham. It denotes good health, joy and prosperity of the couple in the future married life. A good Dina Porutham indicates freedom from poverty, sickness and any kind of ailments. To match the Dina Porutham, different birth Nakshatras of both boy and girl are analyzed.
As per Tamil astrology, if the Nakshatras of a boy or girl especially, Thiruvathirai, Rohini, Visaakam, Makam, Hastham, Thirivonam, Revathi and Uthiraadam Nakshatra, match with each other, then it is said to be “Uthamam” Dina Porutham. Whereas, if the Ashwini, Krithika, Mrigasira, Pushya, Punarvasu, Chitra, Purvashada, Uttara and Uttarshada Nakshatras of the boy and girl match with each other, then it is said to be Madhyama Dina Porutham. However, in Tamil Jathagam Porutham, the first set of Nakshatra matching is given prime importance than the latter one. The 27th Nakshatra is not considered in Tamil Porutham whether it is matched or unmatched.
Gana Porutham
Gana Porutham is the second most important Porutham in Tamil Jothidam. It ensures the marital compatibility of a boy and a girl on the basis of mind, body and sensuality. AS per Vedic Tamil astrology, Ganam is classified into three categories- Dev (Divine), Rakshas (Demon) and Manushya (Human). Each Gana is represented by the nine Nakshatras of the 27 Nakshatras.
Deva Ganam Nakshatras- Aswati, Makayiram, Punartham, Pooyam, Attam, Chothi, Anizham, Thiruvonam, Revathi.
Manushya Ganam Nakshatras- Bharani, Rohini, Thiruvathira, Pooram, Uthram, Pooradam, Uthradam, Pooruruttathi, Uthrattathi
Rakshas Ganam Nakshatras- Karthika, Ayilyam, Makam, Chithira, Vishakam, Thrikketta, Moolam, Avittom, Chathayam
If the Gana of boy and girl in the Jathgam are Deva Gana, then Gana Porutham is said to be Ati Uthamam. If both boy and girl belong to Rakshas Gana, then the match is not recommended whereas if the Ganas of both bride and groom is Manushya, then the Porutham is said to be Uthamam. If the girl is of Rakshas Gana and the boy is of a different Gana then the match is bad or Adhamam whereas if the girl is of a different Gana and the boy is of Rakshas Gana, then the match is Madhyama.
Yoni Porutham
Yoni Porutham signifies the sexual compatibility of husband and wife in the marriage. In this Porutham, each Nakshatra is assigned with an animal force. If the animal signs of both boy and girl are friendly, then they are said to have great sex life while if the animal signs assigned to Nakshatras are rivals, then they experience turmoils.

It is checked by Tamil astrologers to predict the husband’s long life and longevity of the happy relationship of both husband and wife. Rajju Gana is classified into five categories- Shiro Rajju (the head portion), Kanda Rajju (neck portion), Nabhi Rajju (middle portion), Kati Rajju (thigh portion) and Pada Rajju (feet portion).

Hence, Rajju Porutham in 10 Poruthams can never be ignored for blissful and happy marriage life.

If the Boy’s Rashi while counting is on 3, 4, then the match is Madhyamam. 6th and 8th, 2nd and 5th are not agreeable.
