Scored on the four kootas that need only two rashis, and clear about the twenty-one points that need a birth time.
These fifteen points land well. That is a real signal, and it is fifteen of thirty-six. These are the four Ashtakoot kootas that two rashis are enough to work out: Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot. The other four need a birth time, and they are worth twenty-one points.
Compatible - Groom (Vaishya) is equal or higher than Bride (Shudra)
Same Vashya (Manava) - Excellent mutual understanding and attraction
Mutual friends - Excellent mental compatibility
2/12 Bhakoot Dosha — classical caution indicator around shared finances and mental ease — but lords are mutual friends (Mercury-Venus) — Bhakoot Dosha cancelled, so all seven points stand.
Libra sits 2th from Virgo in the rashi chakra. Bhakoot reads that distance and nothing else. Not the elements, and not the lords.
Dwi-Dwadash (2/12) — Lords are mutual friends (Mercury-Venus) — Bhakoot Dosha cancelled
Change the order of the two people and the score changes: Virgo first scores 15, Libra first scores 14. Varna compares the first person’s varna against the second’s, and Bhakoot counts from the first rashi, so the order is part of the question.
| Koota | Virgo first | Libra first | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | 1/1 | 0/1 | moves |
| Vashya | 2/2 | 2/2 | — |
| Graha Maitri | 5/5 | 5/5 | — |
| Bhakoot | 7/7 | 7/7 | — |
| Total | 15/15 | 14/15 | differs |
The first bar is how nearly every compatibility page scores this pair: it looks up ten element pairings, which gives eight distinct answers for all 144 sign pairs. The second is four of the eight Ashtakoot kootas, which give 27. Neither is a reading, but only one of them can tell Virgo and Libra apart from Virgo and Gemini.
Twenty-one of the thirty-six points depend on the nakshatra, which is the Moon’s exact position at birth. The Moon moves through all 27 of them in under a month. No page that knows only two rashis can work them out, and any page that prints a “36-point score” from two sun signs is making twenty-one of them up.
Graha Maitri scores 5 of 5 for that pairing alone: mutual friends. Every rashi pair with those two lords scores the same five points, so this koota is worth checking and not worth reading on its own.
That distance is the whole of Bhakoot, the largest koota at seven points. It falls in the 2/12 position, which carries a classical caution.
The element table gives this pair 50%. The four rashi kootas give 15 out of 15 one way round and 14 the other.
Gun Milan scores thirty-six across eight kootas and checks Mangal dosha on both charts. It needs two birth times, and it is free.
