The Vasya Koot is the second category of Ashtkoot system. The word vasya, when translated, means the ability to dominate or influence another person. Let us understand the person psychology who has devised vasya which implies the control of husband on wife or vice versa. This is stupid thought to my understanding. Husband and wife have different roles to play in marital life and both are complimentary to each other. Both of them are not competitors. Hence the very thought of Vasya Koot is not correct. We should see the nature of both prospective bride and bridegroom and if they understand that they will lead happy married life. For this all 9 planets should be considered on the horoscope and in majority of these nine planets combination of caring attitude should be reflected. Let us now understand the questionable thought process under which Vasya Koot has flourished all through the past. . The vasya koot is to assess the ability of the husband to dominate the wife. Moon sign of the bride and the bridegroom must fall in the same group to get the maximum of 2 points.

The above table explains that if husband is Quadruped or Aries/ Taurus then wife should not be wild or Leo but if wife is Quadruped then husband can be Wild. It is hard to believe matching is done by Moon sign and other 8 planets are not considered at all. Now it is upto readers to judge the science into the Vashya. Conclusion - Whenever Horoscope matching is to be done it has to be kept in mind that both husband and wife should have a happy and married life. It is not who will control over the other. Husband and wife should be give equal importance. Both have their part to play in the married life. Husband earns and controls the finances and wife take care of the society, relative, friends and domestic jobs in which she is naturally more suited than the husband.
