The Bhakoot Dosha Calculator is a web-based computational tool designed to process two specific astrological variables—the Moon Sign of a boy and the Moon Sign of a girl—to determine their geometric alignment within the zodiac. The calculator utilizes a predefined algorithm to assess the angular distance between these two signs, identifies specific relational axes (such as 6-8 or 2-12), and references a planetary friendship matrix to calculate a compatibility score.

The primary function of the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator is to convert user selections into a quantitative “Score” (ranging from 0 to 7) and a qualitative “Verdict” (Pass, Conditional Pass, or Fail). It systematically evaluates the presence of “Dosha” (an astrological geometric conflict) and subsequently checks for specific algorithmic exceptions known as “Cancellations.” The tool outputs 15 distinct data points across five categories: Dosha Core, Planetary Authority, Impact Domains, Cancellation Validation, and a Final Verdict.

Inputs Used by the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator

The algorithm relies exclusively on two input fields. No other astronomical data (such as degrees, Nakshatras, or planetary positions other than the Moon Sign) is processed by the code.

1. Boy’s Moon Sign (Rashi)

Data Type: Integer (Mapped to String)
Range: 1 to 12
Definition: This input selects the zodiac sign occupied by the Moon at the time of the boy’s birth. The Bhakoot Dosha Calculator maps these integers to specific signs and planetary lords as follows:
- 1: Aries (Mars)
- 2: Taurus (Venus)
- 3: Gemini (Mercury)
- 4: Cancer (Moon)
- 5: Leo (Sun)
- 6: Virgo (Mercury)
- 7: Libra (Venus)
- 8: Scorpio (Mars)
- 9: Sagittarius (Jupiter)
- 10: Capricorn (Saturn)
- 11: Aquarius (Saturn)
- 12: Pisces (Jupiter)

2. Girl’s Moon Sign (Rashi)

Data Type: Integer (Mapped to String)
Range: 1 to 12
Definition: This input serves the identical function as the Boy’s input but represents the girl’s data. It utilizes the same 1 through 12 integer mapping to determine the associated Element (Fire, Earth, Air, Water) and Planetary Lord used in the internal logic.

How the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator Works

The internal processing of the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator follows a linear execution path defined in the calcBhakoot() function. The calculation sequence is as follows:

Step 1: Geometric Distance Calculation

The code first calculates the distance between the girl’s sign and the boy’s sign using the modulo operator. The formula used is: diff = (girl - boy + 12) % 12

This results in a generic integer representing the number of signs the girl is away from the boy.

Step 2: Axis Classification

Based on the diff value, the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator assigns a specific “Axis” string and sets the initial isDosha boolean flag.

1-1 Axis: If diff is 0.
1-7 Axis: If diff is 6.
3-11 Axis: If diff is 2 or 10.
4-10 Axis: If diff is 3 or 9.
2-12 (Dwirdwadash) Axis: If diff is 1 or 11. The code sets isDosha = true and severity = "Moderate".
5-9 (Navam-Pancham) Axis: If diff is 4 or 8. The code sets isDosha = true and severity = "Severe".
6-8 (Shadashtak) Axis: If diff is 5 or 7. The code sets isDosha = true and severity = "Severe".

Step 3: Planetary Friendship Analysis

The tool retrieves the “Lord” (ruler) of the Boy’s sign and the Girl’s sign. It then queries the friendshipMatrix object. This matrix contains hardcoded values (1, 0, -1) representing the relationship between the seven visible planets. The code calculates a total score by summing the relationship value of Lord A to Lord B and Lord B to Lord A.

Best Friend: Total ≥ 2
Friend: Total = 1
Neutral: Total = 0
Enemy: Total = -1
Bitter Enemy: Total < -1

Step 4: Cancellation Logic

If isDosha is true, the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator runs validation checks to see if the Dosha can be mathematically cancelled.

Same Lord Rule: If the Boy’s Lord equals the Girl’s Lord (e.g., Aries and Scorpio are both ruled by Mars), the Dosha is cancelled.
Maitri Friendship Rule: If the calculated relationship class is “Best Friend,” “Friend,” or “Identity,” the Dosha is cancelled.
Neutrality: If the relationship is “Neutral,” the cancellation type is set to “Partial.”

Step 5: Scoring and Verdict Assignment

The final output is determined by the combination of Dosha presence and Cancellation status:

Pass (Score 7): No Dosha is detected (e.g., 3-11 or 4-10 axis).
Conditional Pass (Score 5): Dosha is detected (isDosha = true), but a valid cancellation is found.
Fail (Score 0): Dosha is detected, and no valid cancellation criteria are met.

Results and Metrics Explained

The Bhakoot Dosha Calculator displays results across a grid of 15 metrics. Below is the mathematical definition for each output field.

Dosha Core Metrics

Bhakoot Axis Type: Displays the geometric relationship derived from the diff calculation (e.g., “6-8 (Shadashtak)”).
Dosha Presence: A binary output. It displays “Present” if the axis is 2-12, 5-9, or 6-8. It displays “Absent” for all other axes.
Dosha Severity Grade: A categorical variable assigned by the code. “Severe” applies to 6-8 and 5-9 axes. “Moderate” applies to the 2-12 axis. “None” applies when no Dosha is present.

Planetary Authority Metrics

Rashi Lords: Identifies the ruling planet for both input signs (e.g., Sun for Leo, Saturn for Capricorn).
Lord Relationship Class: The text label resulting from the getRelation function (e.g., “Bitter Enemy” or “Best Friend”).
Natural/Group: This reflects the isFriendly boolean. If the relationship score is positive, this metric indicates a “Good” bond; otherwise, it indicates “Bad.”

Dosha Impact Domains

The Bhakoot Dosha Calculator assigns impact levels (“High”, “Medium”, “Low”) to three specific domains based on the axis type.

Health Impact Index: Set to “High” if the axis is 6-8 (Shadashtak). Set to “Medium” if the axis is 2-12. Otherwise “Low.”
Wealth Impact Index: Set to “High” if the axis is 2-12 (Dwirdwadash). Otherwise “Low” (unless modified by cancellation).
Family Stability Index: Set to “High” if the axis is 5-9 (Navam-Pancham). Set to “Medium” if the axis is 6-8.

Note: If a cancellation is valid, the code programmatically downgrades “High” risks to “Medium.”

Cancellation Validation

Same Lord Cancellation Rule: Displays “True” if rB.l === rG.l. This occurs in pairings like Aries-Scorpio (Mars) or Taurus-Libra (Venus).
Mutual Friendship Rule: Displays “True” if the calculated planetary relationship is strictly friendly or identical.
Cancellation Status: The final determination of the exception logic, displaying “Valid Cancellation,” “Partial,” “Not Valid,” or “Not Required.”

Interpreting the Calculation Output

The numeric and categorical outputs provided by the Bhakoot Dosha Calculator represent specific logic states within the code.

The Score (0 to 7)

The “Score” is the final quantitative value assigned to the Bhakoot Koota.

7/7: Indicates the diff calculation resulted in 0, 2, 3, 6, 9, or 10. The code interprets this as optimal geometric alignment.
5/7: Indicates a Dosha was initially flagged, but the isCancelled variable was set to true via the Same Lord or Friendship check. The code applies a fixed penalty of 2 points.
0/7: Indicates the geometric alignment fell into a prohibited category (1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 11) and failed all subsequent boolean checks for friendship or lordship equality.

The Radar Chart

The visual chart renders four axes: Health, Wealth, Family, and Harmony.

In a “Pass” scenario: All values are set to 90.
In a “Fail” scenario: Specific axes are penalized mathematically based on the Dosha type. For example, a 6-8 axis reduces the “Health” data point to 20 while keeping “Harmony” at 60.
In a “Conditional Pass” scenario: The code sets a flat value of 70 across all axes, representing the mathematical mitigation of the risk.

Assumptions and Calculation Limits

The Bhakoot Dosha Calculator operates under specific constraints defined by its programming:

Exclusion of Nakshatras: The code inputs allow only for Rashi (Sign) selection. It does not account for Nakshatra-based Bhakoot variations which might offer different results in traditional systems.
Fixed Friendship Matrix: The calculator uses a static friendshipMatrix object. It does not calculate “Tatkalik Maitri” (Temporary Friendship) based on planetary positions in a specific chart.
Binary Logic for Elements: Elements (Fire, Earth, Air, Water) are displayed for informational purposes but do not independently alter the numerical score or the isDosha boolean flag.
Specific Axis Definitions: The code strictly defines the 1-7 axis as non-Dosha (Pass). Some variations of Bhakoot logic may interpret this differently, but this calculator hardcodes diff === 6 as a safe state.

Estimation Disclaimer

The results generated by this tool are based on a fixed algorithmic interpretation of astrological rules. These figures are mathematical estimates derived from the specific inputs provided and may not reflect the complexity of a full astrological reading.
