Gan Dosha in Matching, Often Misspelled Gad

Same gana scores the 6 points. Dev with Manushya is the milder cross. Manushya with Rakshasa and Dev with Rakshasa are the flags. Rakshasa nakshatras include Krittika, Ashlesha, Magha, Chitra, Vishakha, Jyeshtha, Mula, Dhanishta, and Shatabhisha. Dev includes Ashwini, Mrigashira, Punarvasu, Pushya, Hasta, Swati, Anuradha, Shravana, and Revati. The remaining nine are Manushya. A Dev Moon and a Rakshasa Moon lose those 6 points and can still score well on nadi, which is 8, and on bhakoot, which is 7. Losing 6 is not losing the marriage. The 7th lords and both Navamsas are outside the koota and can outweigh it in either direction.

Matching talk says a gan mismatch brings argument and a failure to understand each other's pace. That is a temperament note about two lunar classes. It is not a prediction of divorce, and it is not a prediction of death. Pages that attach death to Dev-Rakshasa are adding a fear the 6 points do not contain. Health of a marriage is the 7th house. Health of a body is the lagna and the 6th, in each person's own chart. Gana does not diagnose either. If the rest of the Ashtakoot is weak and the 7th lord is in the 8th, the gan flag is one more weight, not the cause.

Some families proceed when the Moon-sign lords are friends, or when Navamsa lagna lords agree, and they treat gan as noted. Some perform a pooja and call the dosha lifted. The pooja can be a family custom. The score remains 6 points short unless you are no longer counting honestly. Do not tell a couple the nakshatras changed. Tell them the koota, the 7th houses, and D9. If those are sound, the 6-point gap is a gap. If they are not, a rite aimed at gana will not repair the 7th lord.
