ASHTAKOOTA & MUHURTA (KUTA-01 · CLASSICAL CODEX)Ashtakoota Compatibility (36-Guna Lunar Synastry Matrix) (Aṣṭakūṭa Melāpaka (36 Guṇa))
In classical Sanskrit horoscopy, Ashtakoota Compatibility (36-Guna Lunar Synastry Matrix) (Aṣṭakūṭa Melāpaka (36 Guṇa) — Eight-Tier Lunar Mansion & Rashi Compatibility Structure (1 to 8 Points)) governs Quantitative Eight-Dimension Lunar Synastry Scoring (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 = 36.0 Gunas). Within the vectorized reference corpus (jyotish_corpus_core_v3), the doctrinal cluster of Ashtakoota Compatibility (36-Guna Lunar Synastry Matrix) (KUTA-01) is cross-indexed across 2,747 verified passages and 1,415 numbered shlokas in 18 Sanskrit treatises.
KUTA-01)Codified in Muhurta Chintamani Chapter 6, Verses 18–36 and Prashna Marga Chapter 22 & Kalaprakashika, Ashtakoota Compatibility (36-Guna Lunar Synastry Matrix) operates under the mathematical invariant 36.0 Total Gunas ; Threshold >= 18.0 Gunas ;Uttama >= 25.0 Gunas: Ashtakoota Melapaka evaluates interpersonal and marital compatibility by comparing the sidereal natal Moon Rashi and Moon Nakshatra of two individuals across eight progressively weighted dimensions (Kutas) whose maximum scores form the exact arithmetic series 1 through 8: Varna (1), Vashya (2), Tara (3), Yoni (4), Graha Maitri (5), Gana (6), Bhakoot (7), and Nadi (8), summing to 36.0 Gunas.
SHASTRIC MECHANICSMathematical Formulation & Structural Rules of Ashtakoota Compatibility (36-Guna Lunar Synastry Matrix)
In Muhurta Chintamani Chapter 6, Rama Daivagna structures the eight Kutas so that the top three factors, Nadi (8 points, physiological and genetic vitality), Bhakoot (7 points, economic and domestic trajectory), and Gana (6 points, psychological temperament), account for 21.0 out of 36.0 total points (58.3% of the matrix). Classical canon sets 18.0 Gunas as the baseline threshold for an auspicious union (Madhyama Melapaka), 25.0 to 32.0 Gunas as superior (Uttama), and above 32.0 Gunas as exceptional, provided neither Nadi Mahadosha nor uncancelled Kuja Dosha afflicts the pair.
