Correlation of Vedic matchmaking and its real-time psychological effect on 19 Indian couple: A survey

Abstract

Vedic astrology is an old and widely believed practice in Indian continent. Many studies have been designed to investigate the effect of astrological and planetary effects on human psychology and behavior. Much literature available till date suggests evidence for relation between planetary positions and disease emergence. Gun Milan i.e. Comparison of psychological qualities on basis of Vedic astrological principles is a practice from Vedic astrology that is been followed from many years in India to find the compatibility in couples. In this research we look at the survey of 19 couples including well doing as well as divorce/incompatible to find whether there is the relevance of astrological conditions on real life post marriage compatibility including factors such as Grah Maitri, Bhakut, Gana maitre and Nadi, i.e thus to find whether there is vice-versa relation of astrological conditions on human psychology. The results show tremendous similarity in the Gun Milan Chart of Incompatible/Divorced couples in association with Grah Maitri and Bhakut. This can be suggestive that absence of constructive ability (bhakut) or temperament (Gana) or both in couples may lead to incompatibility invariant of Friendship (Grah Maitri).
