Reader Reviews"Cornerstone analysis" as DeFouw and Svoboda call it, is blessedly simple and a very helpful first "sweep" to start a relationship reading -- before venturing into poruttham and other complex compatibility techniques. Those of us who had first astrological experience with western psychological style readings will find their technique to compare Sun-Sun, Moon-Moon, Lagna-Lagna, and Venus-Venus very natural. They emphasize the helpful 1-7 & 5-9, medium 3/11 & 4/10, & unhelpful 2/12 & 6/8 angles of the Sun, Moon, Lagna, & Venus as critical "cornerstones" of compatibility. Some discussion of using navamsha lagna or 7th house to see character of spouse. Insightful views of the power of Rahu/Ketu to disturb relationship perceptions. And they find Rahu exalted in Scorpio! Fabulous! Highly recommended to all practicing jyotishi.
