This study explores the practice of Weton calculation in Javanese marriages, focusing on cultural, social, and legal aspects. This cultural heritage is significant for the Javanese community, reflecting local wisdom and social norms respected in marriage. However, in the modern era, this tradition faces challenges that alter societal values and mindsets. The alignment of Weton is considered crucial for marital success, while mismatches can negatively impact family life.
