Even if there is a difference in the Five Stars Panchatara: A method of calculating compatibility based on the distance between birth stars. or the Temperamental Groups original: "Gana," referring to the categorization of stars into Divine, Human, or Demonic temperaments., a marriage with a single Pulse Nadi: The biological or energetic constitution; couples usually require different Nadis (Aadi, Madhya, or Antya) to be compatible. is recorded as auspicious [in certain specific exceptions]. 24॥
