Varna’s koot (aspect) carries one point in the Gun Milaan system, whereas the koot of Vashya carries two points. Let’s look at what these koots are and how they fit into the whole Kundali system.
What is Varna?
Beginning with Varna, the 12 zodiac signs are classified into four divisions. These classifications are known as Varnas (classes). Here are the Varnas associated with each zodiac sign.
- As per Vedic astrology, Scorpio, Pisces, and Cancer are Brahman Varna signs.
- As per Vedic astrology, Aries, Sagittarius, and Leo, are Kshatriya Varna signs.
- As per Vedic astrology, Virgo, Capricorn, and Taurus are Vaishya Varna signs.
- As per Vedic astrology, Aquarius, Libra, and Gemini are Shudra Varna signs.
Brahman Varna is observed as the highest of the Varnas, accompanied by Kshatriya Varna, Vaishya Varna & Shudra Varna. According to the Gun Milaan system, if the male’s Varna is equal or superior to the female’s Varna while matching Kundali, 1 Guna or point is granted for Varna matching. If the female Varna outperforms the male Varna, the Varna matching is awarded 0 out of 1 Guna or point. In this case, Varna Dosh is produced. The Raashis or Moon signs of the male & female under consideration for horoscope matching are considered while matching Varnas.
The presence of Varna Dosh may disrupt the couple’s marriage, and such a pair is likely to be incompatible with one another. The explanation offered for such Guna distribution for Varna matching is the belief that it is necessary for a marriage to be successful, that the husband’s Varna must be higher-level than the wife’s Varna. A husband with outstanding Varna may be competent in both caring for and directing and controlling his wife.
If the Varna of the woman is higher than that of the husband, he may be unable to govern and steer his wife. As a consequence, their marriage may face challenges. As a result, the situation is assigned a score of 0 out of 1. There are 16 possible options for a Varna match between a female and a male, with 6 of these 16 combinations qualifying for 0.
What is Vashya?
Vaishya varna individuals have an in-built ability to evaluate things based on their productivity. They may make out how to accomplish things more simply. They are the most entrepreneurial. And, for society, they can operate or participate in a market where objects or values are exchanged.
Gain and profitability may sometimes compel them to disregard societal principles.
In Vashya, each of the 12 zodiac signs is assigned Vashya according to Vedic astrology. Manava (human), Keet (ant), Jalchar (water animal), Dwipada (two-footed), Chatushpada (quadruped), and Vanchar (wild animal) are the names given to these Vashyas. The Vaishyas are attributed to the 12 signs as follows:
- Chatushpada Vashya is associated with the signs of Aries, Taurus, the first half of Capricorn, and the second half of Sagittarius.
- Manava Vashya is associated with the signs of Libra, Virgo, Gemini, first half of Sagittarius, and Aquarius.
- Leo is assigned Vanchar Vashya.
- Jalchar Vashya rules Cancer, Pisces, and the second part of Capricorn.
- Scorpio is allocated to Keet Vashya.
A score of 0, 1, 1.5, or 2 is appointed based on the common compatibility of the Vaishyas of male and female. In order for the pair to have a happy and harmonious marriage, the Gun Milaan system thinks that the Vashya of the male should be higher to the Vashya of the female under consideration for Kundali matching. As a result, if the male Vashya is superior to the female Vashya, two Gunas are allotted for the Vashya marriage.
If the Vashya of the female is higher than that of the male, the Gunas allocated to such a Vashya match begin dropping in the sequence in such the Vashya of the female is higher than that of the man. In some of these situations, where the female’s Vashya is significantly higher than that of the man, 0 out of 2 Gunas is assigned for the Vashya test. In such occurence, Vashya dosh develops.
According to the social structure, each gender and class had specific roles, and they were not expected to behave outside of those roles.
Effects of Varna Koota on Married Life
When analyzed to other kundli matching characteristics such as Varna Koota, Yoni matching, Nadi matching, Graha Maitri, or Gana matching the has a negligible influence on marriage compatibility.
If other compatibility characteristics are high, a poor Varna match is not a concern in marriage.
However, we believe that the same varna usually complements each other quite well. Furthermore, Shudra varna and Brahmin varna have high compatibility, but Vaishya varna and Kshatriya varna are much more compatible with one another. However, it is believed that the male’s varna should be superior to the female’s to have a successful marriage.
A solid Varna match with most other compatibility criteria operating well might act as a sweetness in a couple’s relationship. A couple’s reciprocation is slightly better with one another. If a couple has strong Gana matching in their kundli Milan, a compatible Varna Koota will add extra worth to that Gana matching.
