Rajju Porutham Calculator
The Most Important & Decisive Factor in Tamil Marriage Matching
Rajju Porutham is widely regarded as the single most critical porutham in Tamil astrology when matching horoscopes for marriage.It primarily focuses on the longevity and physical safety of the couple, specifically predicting the lifespan of the husband and wife.
Even if all other 9 poruthams are perfect, a mismatch in Rajju is usually considered a deal-breaker by traditional astrologers — because it directly relates to:
- Longevity of the couple | Many astrologers suggest that if Rajju Porutham is missing, the marriage should not proceed, even if the other nine matches are perfect.
- Health and well-being of partners | While Rajju Porutham is a cornerstone of traditional matchmaking, modern perspectives often emphasize personal compatibility and mutual understanding as the true foundations of a happy marriage.
- Safety during pregnancy & childbirth
- Overall fortune and stability of married life | if the stars of both are found to be in the same portion as the head, the husband will not live long
There are 5 Rajju groups:
There are 5 types of Rajju Porutham and Star's allocated to all the 5 types. Let us find the details of every Rajju Porutham and its impact on Marriages. The Couples having Birth Star within a same Rajju cannot marry @ for example, Aswini cannot marry Ayilyam, because both come under Patha Rajju. Hence there is a total mismatch on the Rajju Porutham.
- Padha Rajju (Foot) – affects travel & longevity (Punarvasu, Chitra, Swati, Dhanishta)
- Ooru Rajju (Thigh) – affects happiness & children
- Kati Rajju (Waist) – affects wealth & family life (Ardra, Vishakha, Purva Ashadha, Shravana, Shatabhisha)
- Kantha Rajju (Neck) – affects partner’s health (Bharani, Krittika, Pushya, Purva Phalguni, Anuradha, Uttara Bhadrapada)
- Sirsha Rajju (Head) – affects husband’s life & status (Ashwini, Ashlesha, Magha, Jyeshtha, Moola, Revati)
Rule: If both boy and girl nakshatras fall in the same Rajju group → mismatch (very inauspicious). Different groups → match (safe).
Important Note
Many experienced astrologers say: “No Rajju, no marriage”. Even a score of 9.5/10 is rejected if Rajju is bad. Always consult a senior astrologer before finalizing any alliance when Rajju mismatches.if the portion is the neck for both then the wife will not live long.if they are the same as for the middle portion, then it means that progeny will be affected,If the stars represent the same portion for both under the thigh, it may lead to poverty.if the foot is the body portion which the stars of both are found to represent then it is interpreted as travel accidents/Husband or Wife is always away or travelling or Aimless Wandering
