Same-element Moons: easy in the West, a dosha in Vedic matching

Moon signs 5 and 9 apart share an element (a trine, easy in Western astrology), yet Ashtakoota scores Bhakoot 0 of 7, often cancelled when the two lords are friends.

Transcript

Two Moon signs in the same element feel naturally at ease. Western astrology calls it a trine, one of the easiest links. But in Vedic matching, the same pair, five and nine signs apart, is a Bhakoot dosha. It scores zero out of seven. Many authorities count that dosha as cancelled when the two sign lords are friends.
