Weton is the calculation of the day of birth. In Javanese, "wetu means coming out or being born, then it gets the suffix an which forms a noun. Weton means a combination of the day and the market when the baby is born. Usually this is used for people who want to get married to create a happy, peaceful and loving household and apart from that to decide whether their prospective partner is suitable or not. The compatibility in question means that the marriage will be happy, have a good economy, will not divorce or will not experience disputes that lead to divorce and will not harm the family and oneself. If this calculation is appropriate or matches the calculation that has been determined, then the process will be carried out up to the marriage level. However, on the other hand, even though the bride and groom already like and love each other, parents will still advise their children not to continue the relationship.
