Core Evaluation Grid

| 7th house | Occupants, aspects, benefic/malefic balance | Relationship tone and practical compatibility |
| 7th lord | Dignity, house placement, conjunctions | Spousal quality and partnership trajectory |
| 8th house | Afflictions vs supports | Stability through stress and transformation |
| 8th lord | Strength and dasha activation | Timing of vulnerable phases |
| Upapada | Sign, lord, and influences | Marriage institution and social framing |
| Venus and Jupiter | Condition in rasi/navamsha | Harmony, values, wisdom, support |
