what is the significance of Vaasya and Varna in the Kundali matching




As we are aware, in India, it is a tradition to do kundali matching before fixing up a marriage between couples. Today, with the advance of technology, there are many apps or websites which help us in horoscope matching by using online kundali matching which does away with the need of an astrologer.

But, in this we have to remember that the system used in these apps is the Ashtakoota Guna Milan System which is only one of the checks done for astrology compatibility of the couple. So, it is always better to consult an expert astrologer for Kundali Milan of the horoscope as the astrologer will take into aspect all the checks before giving his opinion of the Kundli matching or not.

The Ashtakoota Guna Milan System is based on the Guna Milan of 8 aspects or Kootas from both the horoscopes. Each Koota is given Gunas in ascending order and a total of 36 Gunas are matched. The horoscope matching is said to be viable if 18 out of 36 Gunas are matched.

The various Kootas are:
Ø Varna - 1 Guna
Ø Vashya - 2 Gunas
Ø Tara - 3 Gunas
Ø Yoni– 4 Gunas
Ø GrahaMaitri– 5 Gunas
Ø Gana– 6 Gunas
Ø Bhakoot – 7 Gunas
Ø Nadi – 8 Gunas

Let’s have a look at the Varnakoota and Vashyakoota Gunas in the Guna Milan of horoscope matching.

Varna Koota
The Varna Kootais the calculation of the native’s Varna- meaning type, order or caste - to analyse the astrology compatibility of the couple.

Varnas can be calculated using different methods:
Ø Calculation of the Rashi of the Moon of the individual
Ø Calculation of the Navamsha of the Moon
Ø Calculation of the ascendant (Lagna) or Sun of the individual
Ø Calculation of the Nakshatra of the Moon
The Varnas are divided into 4 classes:
Ø Brahmins or the literate class
Ø Kshatriyas or the warrior class
Ø Vaishyas or the trader class
Ø Shudras or the unskilled class

As per Vedic astrology, Rashisared divided into various Varnas:
Ø Brahmins :Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces
Ø Kshatriyas: Aries, Leo, Sagittarius
Ø Vaishyas:  Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn
Ø Shudras: Gemini, Aquarius, Libra

Vedic astrology classifies the Brahmins as the most superior of all the classes and the Shudras the most inferior. This caste system is also based on spirituality. Brahmins show their spirituality by their worship of God, Kshatriyas make use of action, Vaishyas do their trade dealings and Shudras do work handed to them by tradition.

Mostly Varna Koota is analysed by the moon sign of the individuals. As per the Varna Koota, the Varna of the male should be equal to or higher than the female. Suppose the female’s Varna is higher than that of the male, the couple would have lots of difficulties in their marriage. Usually Varnas of individuals having the same Varna would be considered to match each other in Kundali matching andthey would scoremaximum of 1 Guna in the Ashtakoota Guna Milan system.
VashyaKoota

This Koota tells us about the love compatibility and dedicationof the couple in the marriage. It basically tells us about the dominant partner in the marriage.

People are dividedinto 5 different animals in the VasyaKoota. These divisions are-

Ø Chatushpada or Quadrupeds (four-legged animals):The signs included are Aries, Taurus, the 1st half of Capricorn and the 2nd half of Sagittarius.
Ø Nara or the Humans (two – legged animals): The signs included are Gemini, Virgo, Libra, Aquarius and the 1st half of Sagittarius.
Ø Jalchar or water-dwellers:The signs included are Cancer, Pisces and the 2nd half of Capricorn.
Ø Vanacara or wild beast: The signs included are Leo.
Ø Keeta or Insects:The signs included are Scorpio.

VasyaKoota only matches the Moon signs and does not consider the planets. The moon signs of both the individuals must fall in the same group to achieve maximum astrological compatibility. A 
maximum of 2 Gunas would be scoredin the Ashtakoota Guna Milan system.

There are 4 rules to test the VashyaKoota:
• Chatushpada, Manava, and Jalacharagroups are said to beVasya to the Vanachara group.
• Chatushpada, Jalachara, and Keeta groups are said to beVasya to the Manava group.
• Jalachara signs are said to be the food of the Manava signs.
• Chatushpada signs are said to be the food of the Vanachara sign.

If both the male and female have the same group, for example, both are Chatushpada, then Vasya is considered good and 2 points are given.

If one person is Vasya to the other, for example, if the female's group is Chatushpada and the male's group is Manava then 1 point is given.

If one person is food to the other, for example, the female is Jalachara and the male is Manava then 1/2 a point is given.

If the female or male is not Vasya to the other, no points are given. The Vashya Koota actually analyses the power equations of the couple.
