Divorces are rare in countries where matchmaking is considered an integral part of a healthy society. On the other hand in the western society almost 50% of the marriages fall apart in the first few years of marriage and the rest drag, dissolve or become destructive for the couple.

You must have heard the famous proverb that opposite attracts. In the west this rule applies to 99% of the relationships. People get attracted to the other because of opposite attracts, hence there is no compatibility among couples. On the other hand in India falling in love with a person before marriage is still considered a taboo, majority of the couples are matched based on their horoscopes and body features.
OK! Lets keep astrology on the side and lets forget about body features. What about numbers, Numerology plays such an important role in our lives that one can become a millionaire with playing the right numbers or can lose million in the stock market, no wonder 9-11 turned into an emergency for the whole nation.
I will give you one secret from the science of numerology and it will amaze you for the rest of your life.

The number 4 and 7 are enemies to each other. Now if you are one of those people who are born on the following dates:

4, 14, 24 or in the month of April or in the years starting or ending with a 4 i.e. 40’s or 54,64,74 and so on
You will be highly incompatible with the person who is born on the following dates:

7, 17, 27 or in the month of July or in the 70’s or in the years ending with a 7 i.e. 37,47, 57, 67 and so on.
If you have a 4 or 7 in your birthday and someone you know and love has the opposite number in their birth dates you will have problems in relationships with this person. If you end up marrying this person you are asking for trouble in the coming years.
There are tons of secrets in Numerology, Astrology and the Science of Body Features that one can use to find the best possible match for a healthy relationship and for a long and happy married life.

This will surprise you again: In Vedic Astrology couples are matched on a 36-point system and some of the areas we cover are:

The karmic sex of the person (You could be born in a male body but as far as karma goes you could be a female locked in a male body or vice versa).
Personal Magnetism
Mind Compatibility
Karmic Compatibility
Ayurvedic Doshas
The animal traits in a person
Whether the person belongs to the Angle, Human or Devil group
Financial Prosperity
Longevity of the marriage
Potential to bear kids
When we do a compatibility analysis we make sure that the couple gets at least 18 out of 36 points in order for the marriage to survive.

If we can match the right people on the planet we will have nothing but harmony in the coming future.
