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 →
Bhakoot: the Moon signs sit in a 2/12, 5/9 or 6/8 relationship, so Bhakoot scores 0. Classical practice examines the sign lords before treating this as decisive — and here Graha Maitri is strong, which the texts treat as a mitigating factor.
Ashwini — Ashwini is the first nakshatra, the spark that sets the zodiac in motion. Ruled by Ketu and presided over by the Ashvins — the twin physicians of the gods — it carries the energy of swift starts, rescue and healing.
Anuradha — Anuradha is the lotus that blooms in foreign mud — friendship, devotion, and success far from home. Ruled by Saturn and presided over by Mitra, it achieves through alliances and steady bhakti rather than solo force.

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.
