Grah Maitri Koota in Kundli Matching
The Graha Maitri Koota is the 5th Koota in the Ashtakoota Milan system of Kundli Matching. This Koota assesses the mental compatibility and mutual love between the partners to be married.
Mental compatibility is much required between partners as it eases communication and understanding in the relationship. A good mental compatibility between the partners leads to acceptance, trust, and can even increase compassion in the relationship.
According to Vedic Astrology, each of the 12 Zodiac Signs is ruled by a planet. Aries and Scorpio are ruled by Mars, Taurus and Libra are ruled by Venus, Gemini and Virgo are ruled by Mercury, Cancer is ruled by Moon, Leo is ruled by the Sun, Sagittarius and Pisces are ruled by Jupiter, and Capricorn and Aquarius are ruled by Saturn.
Vedic Astrology also divides the natural relationships among the planets as friend, neutral, and enemy.
The planetary relationships are as follows-
| Planetary Relationships | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Planet | Friend | Neutral | Enemy | |
| Sun | Moon,Jupiter and Mars | Mercury | Venus and Saturn | |
| Moon | Sun and Mercury | Jupiter, Venus, Saturn and Mars | — | |
| Mars | Sun, Moon and Jupiter | Saturn and Venus | Mercury | |
| Mercury | Venus and Sun | Mars, Saturn and Jupiter | Moon | |
| Jupiter | Sun, Moon and Mars | Saturn | Venus and Mercury | |
| Venus | Mercury and Saturn | Mars and Jupiter | Sun and Moon | |
| Saturn | Mercury and Venus | Jupiter | Sun, Moon and Mars | |
| The maximum points to score Graha Maitri Koota is 5 points. If both the natives belong to the same Moon Sign and are friendly, then 5 points are given to the couple. If one of the Moon Signs of the natives is friendly and one is neutral, then 4 points are given and if both the signs of the natives are neutral towards one another, then 3 points are given. 0, 0.5 and 1 point are given to signs which are enemies.Graha Maitri Koota is important in Kundli Matching as it helps to assess whether the partners are in sync with each other or not. |
A high Graha Maitri Koota score indicates a good match which would in turn cause less differences of opinion between the partners. A high score is considered auspicious in Kundli Matching as it indicates that the partners are on the same mental level, which in turn increases marital compatibility.
A low Graha Maitri Koota score, on the other hand, indicates poor mental compatibility and is considered inauspicious in Kundli Matching.
