VasyaKoot is used in determining the compatibility in between the girl and boy after marriage and how dedicated relationship is present in between couples. All the planetary positions are taken in to account for compatibility of two people in marriage and if the score is only 2 then the couple is compatible and couple is not found to be compatible with score of 1.

If there is harmony in between the planets of bride and groom, then they will have blissful marriage otherwise they will have strong differences in their marriage life filled with clashes, ego and arguments. Therefore, it is very important that GrahMaitri should be considered, the marriage is finalized only if it scores 5 otherwise astrologers does not prefer the marriage with less than 5. Apart from these, it is also very significant step by astrologers to take BhakootGuna during match making.
