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 Adi 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).
Mula — Mula digs to the root — and sometimes pulls it out. Ruled by Ketu and presided over by Nirriti, it is the nakshatra of radical inquiry: destroying the false foundation so the true one can be found.
Uttara Phalguni — Where Purva Phalguni celebrates, Uttara Phalguni commits. Ruled by the Sun and presided over by Aryaman, patron of alliances and marriage contracts, it is the nakshatra of the kept word and the helpful hand.

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.
