Using charts for business partnerships
Business compatibility is a separate question from marriage matching. Jyotish sources sometimes compare two charts for partnership, using the same kutas or the seventh-house themes, but the rules are less standard.
What it is
A business partnership is read through the seventh house, the second and eleventh houses for income, and the lords involved. Traditional texts describe these, but the combinations depend on the school.
How it is worked out or read
The site does not produce a business compatibility result. The house and graha data for each chart is shown in the birth chart tool.

Partnership in business and in marriage
Business compatibility is a separate question from marriage matching. Some sources compare two charts for a working partnership, using the seventh house and the second and eleventh for income. The rules are less standard than those for marriage, and the results depend heavily on the school and the teacher.
A business partnership is shaped by the people, their skills, their money and their agreements. A chart can describe the tendencies a partner brings, but it cannot decide whether a business succeeds.
Houses used for business themes
Traditional readings of business look at the seventh house for partners, the second for resources, the tenth for work and standing, and the eleventh for gains. The grahas and lords of these houses describe the kind of partnership and its financial pattern. A reader who studies a business partnership in a chart should name the houses used and the lords involved.
Mercury is often considered as the significator of trade and commerce, and it is read with these houses in traditional discussions.
Practical advice belongs elsewhere
Decisions about business, money and contracts should be taken with qualified advisers, including accountants and lawyers. This site does not give financial or legal advice, and its chart readings are not a basis for investment or for signing agreements. The reader should treat the astrological view as one perspective among the practical considerations of a business.
What readers compare
For a business partnership, readers who use Jyotish usually look at each partner's tenth house of work, eleventh house of gains and seventh house of partnership, and at the relationship between the two Moon signs and Lagnas. Some also compare the partners' dashas over the planned life of the venture. These comparisons are less formalised than marriage matching, and no single score is standard.
Muhurta for the deed
A more common use is choosing a muhurta for signing the partnership deed or opening the business, following the general rules for commercial beginnings: a favourable nakshatra, tithi and weekday, avoidance of Rahu Kaal, and a strong Lagna at the moment of signing.
Due diligence first
No chart comparison replaces checking a partner's record, finances and commitments, or a clear written agreement drafted with professional advice. These practical steps decide most partnerships' fortunes far more than any astrological factor.
