Compatability
Vedic Astrology has a unique system of determining the compatibility between two charts. Chart compatibility is determined by precise analysis of how the planetary positions in the charts compare and interact .

The Moon of Story Lucille Ducey falls in Cancer, the eighth house of Tapash.
• The Moons of Tapash and Story Lucille Ducey fall respectively in the 2 and 12 positions from each other. This position is considered to be inauspicious.

What is the rationale behind a compatibility calculation? Compatibility for the purpose of love has several aspects. Each aspect has to be taken care of, but together they form an optimal situation.
Astrologically, one can determine how much the two people have a similar basis in their psychological makeup. This similarity gives them the necessary common ground to feel comfortable about being close. Without having commonalities, love has to bridge too far of a gap to be stable and will not be able to survive.

• The Lagna of Story Lucille Ducey falls in the same Nakshatra as Lagna of Tapash. • The Rahu of Story Lucille Ducey falls in the same Nakshatra as Lagna of Tapash. • The Lagna of Tapash falls in the same Nakshatra as Lagna of Story Lucille Ducey.
Just like 2 magnets attract each other only with the opposite poles, Vedic Astrology compatibility specifies various factors that should not be the same. If the couple is having these factors identical, some kind of over emphasis will take place, and too much of the same thing is harmful here.
In real life, too close can be too close, and too far can be too far.
Other factors have to be uniquely rated to properly judge what any one particular quality goes well with. For example, if one of the Moon’s is in Purvaphalguni Nakshatra, it will work out well if the other’s Moon is in Anuradha. Many specific favorable and unfavorable combinations are specified, based on unique characteristics of the factors considered.
Tapash : In the birth chart of Tapash Mars is placed in the third house from the lagna while in the Moon chart Mars is placed in seventh house from the Moon. Hence Tapash is not Mangalik from the Birth Chart but Chandra Mangalik from the Moon Chart.
Story Lucille Ducey : In the birth chart of Story Lucille Ducey Mars is placed in the sixth house from the lagna while in the Moon chart Mars is placed in eleventh house from the Moon. Hence Story Lucille Ducey is not a Mangalik from the Birth Chart as well as from the Moon Chart.
Finally, the Vedic Astrology compatibility system has an aspect that considers the favorable reinforcement of the relationship man and woman have from a biological/cultural perspective. For example, if the man’s Moon is in a male Nakshatra, and the woman has the Moon in a female nakshatra, that is best, and will support their natural male-female balance.
By superimposing the 2 charts, one can analyze just how the planets in one chart influence the planets and houses in the other chart. This analysis can reveal a lot of detailed information about how one person affects the other person’s life. Even though this analysis can provide a rich and interesting source of predictions, it should be considered as less important than the Moon based compatibility for the purpose of predicting overall compatibility of the couple.

Superimposed Charts
As you know, the birth chart is a sketch of the zodiac at the time of birth. You can think of the chart as a kind of map, full with sensitive points, represented by the Grahas, and the house midpoints. These sensitive points are uniquely placed for a particular individual, but the medium underneath – the “zodiac paper” – is universal. And just like one could superimpose a political map onto a geological map (if they have the same scale) and interpret the interaction of features, it is perfectly sensible to superimpose two birth charts and analyze their interaction.
You can superimpose the charts of two people from the perspective of either person. If you want to know the results for person A, then rotate the chart of person B to align the signs to the chart of person A. Now look for any Grahas in person B’s chart that are very close to Grahas or house degrees in person’s A chart. The closer the degree, the stronger the effect will be. Use the Graha’s natural significations, but also lordships, and everything else you know about the Graha. Beside analyzing this combined chart from the Lagna of person A, you may also read the chart from the Moon or Sun position in person’s A chart. In all cases you will be make interpretations as they apply to person A’s perspective.
Beside conjunctions, aspects can also be used. Look for aspects where the aspecting Graha and the aspected Graha are in similar degrees, as those are the strongest aspects.
To find out person B’s side of the story, do just the reverse: use person B’s Lagna, Moon sign and Sun sign, and read the superimposed chart from those points.
This technique can be used in many ways.
- interpret the effects of transits on the natal chart
- interpret the influence of a business or organization on an individual
- interpret the effect of the time of marriage on the people getting married
Not only the natal chart can be used, but also the Vargas. The significance of the Grahas should then be first applied to the theme of the Varga you use, before interpreting its effect on the chart it is superimposed on.
