Computed nakshatra-to-nakshatra using each nakshatra’s principal rashi; where a nakshatra spans two rashis, exact birth details can shift Bhakoot, Graha Maitri and Vashya — run the full calculation with both birth details →
Nadi: both Moons run in the Antya nadi, so Nadi scores 0 — the dosha the texts weigh most heavily, and the one with the most classical exceptions (same rashi, different nakshatra; same nakshatra, different pada; and more).
Shravana — Shravana is the sacred ear — the nakshatra of listening, learning and the preserved word. Ruled by the Moon and presided over by Vishnu, it connects worlds: teacher to student, past to present, person to person.
Swati — Swati is the young shoot that bends in the wind and does not break. Ruled by Rahu and presided over by Vayu, it grants independence, adaptability, and the quiet strength of things that grow slowly in open air.

What this is: the classical Ashtakoota tally, computed exactly as the muhurta texts describe — and what it is not: a verdict on two human beings. Traditions themselves treat the score as one voice among many (families, temperaments, and the judgement of elders and priests), and low scores have classical remedies and exceptions the texts discuss at length. We show the arithmetic honestly and leave the wisdom where it belongs — with you.
