The four tests from the birth star

21 of Ashtakoota's 36 points are calculated from the two people's birth stars, the nakshatra the Moon occupied at birth. These four tests are below.

Mutual benefit (luck and health) — 3/3

This test is the traditional counterpart to the popular feeling of "bringing good luck." Based on the number obtained by counting the distance between your birth stars, it looks at how the relationship is likely to affect the two of you in terms of luck and health.

Counting from Uttara Bhadrapada to Revati gives star number 2 (Sampat); counting from Revati to Uttara Bhadrapada gives star number 27 (Ati-Mitra). Tradition treats the 3rd, 5th and 7th stars (Vipat, Pratyari, Vadha) as challenging.

✅ 3 points. Tradition says this pairing benefits you both.

Physical attraction and intimacy — 3/4

This test measures physical attraction and compatibility in intimacy. In the tradition, each birth star is associated with an animal (horse, elephant, deer, lion, etc.); whether the two animals are natural friends or enemies serves as a metaphor for the couple's physical compatibility.

The symbol animal of Uttara Bhadrapada is the cow; the symbol animal of Revati is the elephant.

🔸 3 points. Your symbolic animals are friendly or neutral; there's attraction, and the rhythm settles over time.

Daily temperament and disposition — 5/6

This test measures compatibility of everyday temperament. The tradition divides people into three temperaments: gentle and accommodating, balanced and practical, and quick and assertive. Two people of the same or similar temperament tend to have less friction in daily life.

Uttara Bhadrapada belongs to the Manushya (balanced and practical) temperament group and Revati to the Deva (gentle and harmonious) group.

🔸 5 points. Your temperaments are close; a difference in pace is felt occasionally but is manageable.

Body energy and health (the highest-scoring test) — 8/8

This test is the largest single slice of the 36 points (8 points). The tradition divides the human constitution into three energy types; it's considered desirable for partners to have DIFFERENT types — difference means balance. Having the same type is treated as significant in the tradition, tied to matters of health and children. One more thing to note: in the tradition, this line doesn't carry equal weight with the other seven — it's treated as their precondition. The source text says that if this test isn't clean in a match, the other seven scoring high loses much of its meaning. So this is a heavier item. Being heavy doesn't mean a bad fate — the cancellation conditions below are also part of the tradition's own text.

Uttara Bhadrapada is of the Madhya nadi type and Revati of the Antya nadi type.

✅ 8 points. Your body types differ — tradition counts this as a "balancing pair" and gives full points.

The three tests from the Moon sign

Mutual influence (Vashya, 2 points), mind and conversation (Graha Maitri, 5 points) and the order of shared life (Bhakoot, 7 points) are tests of the Moon sign, not of the birth star. The maturity and role-sharing test (Varna, 1 point) depends on which partner is on which side, so the total is given as a range.
