Natural Friendship: Planets show the natural friendships with each other, it doesn’t mean that they are the natural friends with every planet. It is same like us. We find ourself comfortable with someone, however, not with everyone. In that case, some will become our friends with their favourable traits automatically and will be considered into natural friends, while some will always be inimical or we do not find ourselves comfortable with some personality. Likewise with planets too, they have some natural friends, which is considered as their permanent friendship with other planets, while some are inimical and considered as natural enemies or permanent enemies. In between these two types, there are some planets to which there is neither friendship nor inimical relations, these will be considered into Neutral Planets. We can understand this concept with the help of below table, please find the below table for your better understanding:
