Ashlesha — Ashlesha is the serpent’s embrace — hypnotic, penetrating and wise. Ruled by Mercury and presided over by the Nagas, it holds the powers of the deep: intuition, strategy, medicine and the coiled energy the yogis call kundalini.
Pushya — Pushya is widely honoured as the most auspicious nakshatra — the udder that feeds, the lotus that blooms from mud. Ruled by Saturn and presided over by Brihaspati, it nourishes steadily and keeps its promises.

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.
