Nadi Dosh
Nadi Dosh: In India the institution of marriage is considered pious and holds great importance and Nadi Dosh occurring in the horoscopes of the said couple is considered negative. For this reason, Horoscope matching of the bride and the groom is given utmost importance in the Hindu religion. Horoscopes are matched on the basis of eight categories or Ashtakoota Milan which total up to 36 points. Out of them Nadi is given the highest 8 points and if there's a Nadi dosh in the horoscope then 0 points are given.

Nadi Dosh: Overview
We're sure you must have heard the word Guna milan very often when looking to get two people married. There are some common doshas in the Vedic Astrology such as the Mangal Dosha, Gana Dosha, etc which are said to have serious impacts on the married life of a couple. Nadi Dosh amongst them is considered to be the most inauspicious dosha among all other doshas in the process of matching the gunas for marriage.
Formation of Nadi Dosh in Kundli matching should be checked by a learned and an experienced astrologer. This dosha has numerous implications such as poverty after marriage, not being able to conceive after marriage and both the girl and boy may also face troubles and conflicts in married life and end up getting divorced.
For this reason, Nadi has been given the highest 8 points out of all other categories of the Ashtakoota. Let us now see what Nadi Dosh really is and how it is formed.
What Is Nadi Dosh & How It Is Formed
As per the Indian Vedic Astrology there are three types of Nadis: Adi, Madhya and Antya. Now, as per the rules when Ashtakoota Milan is done, it's said the couple should not have the same Nadis. For eg: If the girl has Adi Nadi then the boy should have either Madhya or Antya Nadi.
If the bride and the groom both have Adi, Madhya or Antya Nadi then this dosha is formed and most astrologers suggest that one must not go ahead with such an alliance. Thus, it has been concluded that to have a happy and prosperous life both the groom and the bride must have different Nadis.
However even if this dosha exists one must still consider various other aspects and placements of planets in both the girl and the boy's horoscope and see if the ill effects of Nadi dosh can be nullified or reduced to a considerable extent.
If the said dosha persists in horoscopes then it is said to greatly impact the happiness and prosperity of a couple, they may fight often and things may escalate in the blink of an eye.
The couple may separate or the offspring may suffer from mental or physical health issues and in severe cases they may even not be able to conceive. There are some cases when the Nadi Dosh can even be canceled. Let us now know when the deadly Nadi Dosh can be canceled.

Cancelation Of Nadi Dosh
There are a few ways when the Nadi Dosh is said to be canceled or nullified.
-
If both the bride and the groom have the same zodiac but belong to different nakshatras then Nadi Dosh is said to be nullified.
-
If both the bride and the groom have the same nakshatras but different zodiacs then also this dosha is canceled.
-
If the nakshatras of the bride and groom are the same but the phases or the charan are different then Nadi Dosh is canceled.
-
If the girl and the boy have different zodiacs but the lord of the zodiacs is the same then this dosha is said to be nullified. E.g: If the girl has a Gemini zodiac and the boy has a Virgo zodiac, then both these zodiacs are ruled by Mercury. Hence, the Nadi Dosh will be nullified.
