Programme Overview

Relationship compatibility is one of the most sought-after applications of Vedic astrology. This programme equips you with the full range of classical techniques — from the time-honoured Ashtakoota (Guna Milan) scoring system to synastry overlays and composite chart analysis — while also training you in the ethical and interpersonal skills that sensitive relationship work demands.

You will learn to assess romantic partnerships, marital harmony, business alliances and family dynamics through the Jyotish lens. Every technique is grounded in real case studies, and your mentor will guide you through the nuances of delivering compatibility findings with care, clarity and professionalism.
