The traditional Ashtakoota count out of 36, with each of the eight kootas shown separately. GamaYeah explains the calculation; it never returns a verdict for or against a marriage.
When the birth times are not at hand, only the two Moon rashis are known. Two of the eight kootas can be counted from the rashis alone — Bhakoot and Graha Maitri. The rest need each birth nakshatra.
