Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cancer and Pisces a good match for marriage?
Cancer and Pisces score approximately 30/36 in Gun Milan, indicating excellent compatibility for marriage. This is generally considered a favorable match in Vedic astrology. However, Gun Milan based on Moon signs alone is just one factor. A complete compatibility analysis requires checking both full birth charts for Mangal Dosha, Bhakoot Dosha, Nadi Dosha, and planetary periods (Dashas). Use Jyotir AI's Kundli Matching tool for a detailed analysis based on your actual birth details.
How do Cancer and Pisces handle money together?
Financial compatibility between Cancer and Pisces is shaped by their elemental approach to resources. Cancer (Water) is emotionally driven with money — spending increases during stress, and financial security is tied to emotional safety. Pisces (Water) connects financial decisions to family security and emotional wellbeing. Similar money values simplify joint finances. Planetary friendship supports cooperative financial decisions.
What Doshas should Cancer and Pisces check for?
When matching Cancer and Pisces for marriage, key Doshas to check include: (1) Mangal Dosha — if Mars is in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house of either partner's chart, it creates Manglik Dosha which needs matching or remedies. (2) Nadi Dosha — if both partners share the same Nadi (Adi, Madhya, or Antya), it scores 0/8 points and is considered a significant red flag. (3) Bhakoot Dosha — certain Moon sign combinations (like 6-8 or 2-12 placements) create Bhakoot Dosha, reducing compatibility. With different rulers (Moon and Jupiter), all three Doshas should be carefully assessed. These require exact birth details — use Jyotir AI's Kundli Matching for accurate Dosha analysis.
