Horoscope matching is a traditional part of a Hindu wedding. It is only after the horoscopes or the Kundlis of bride and groom match that the marriage is fixed. Astrologers usually focus on the matching of Gunas (a factor which calculates your level of compatibility) while studying the horoscope of the two.
