Yes. Dinam. The quiet, misunderstood, often underrated star of the ten. Dinam (also called Dina or Dina Porutham ) calculates the physical and mental rhythm between two people. It’s based on the counting of nakshatras (birth stars) from the bride’s star to the groom’s star, divided by nine. If the remainder is 2, 4, 6, or 8 (even numbers), Dinam is rejected.
