• Kundli matching and Guna Milan: what the 36 points settleGuna Milan scores two charts out of 36 by comparing the Moon. It is a first screen, not a verdict, and a low score usually has one technical cause.
• When relationships keep ending the same wayA kundli can show a repeating pattern in how a person approaches partnership, and the periods when relationships strain. It cannot say why someone left.
• What a strong 6th house really means in a kundliA strong 6th house means a strong ability to fight, work and recover. That is not the same as a strong 6th lord, and mixing the two is the usual mistake.
• A relationship in trouble: what a kundli can and cannot sayA kundli carries no breakup date. It shows what a person expects of partnership, which periods press on it, and which friction keeps repeating.
• Red flags in a relationship, and what a chart can honestly tell youA kundli cannot tell you whether someone is treating you badly. It can show friction, pace and timing. The flags that matter are things you can already see.

• Mars in the 10th house and what it does to a careerMars in the 10th house is one of the strongest career placements in a kundli: drive, stamina, authority. The cost usually shows up at home.
