As mentioned earlier, weton has become part of the culture and beliefs of traditional Javanese society. Weton serves as a reference in reading Javanese Primbon, which contains predictions related to someone's life. However, weton has now become quite common. Therefore, knowledge about weton is not only possessed by the Javanese community.

According to the Indonesian Dictionary (KBBI), weton is interpreted based on Javanese cultural context. The KBBI states that weton is the day of someone's birth that is related to the day of birth (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) with Javanese pasaran, namely Legi, Pahing, Wage, Pon, and Kliwon.

Based on the date of birth in the Gregorian calendar, namely Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, as well as pasaran Legi, Pahing, Wage, Pon, and Kliwon, each individual has their own weton. For example, someone born on Sunday with pasaran Legi, their weton is Sunday Legi.

In the Javanese calendar system, this cycle (Weton) repeats every 35 days. This means that the same day and pasaran will only meet again after 35 days (a birth day will repeat every five weeks). Therefore, there are at least 35 weton in Javanese tradition and culture.

In Javanese society, weton is not just a marker or reminder of someone's birth date. More than that, Javanese weton also has an important role in Primbon that can be used for various purposes such as character indicator, financial luck, compatibility with prospective life partners, determining good and bad days, ritual guide, and so on.

However, in order to use weton as Primbon, you first need to understand the calculation of Javanese weton. Because, to know the character, destiny, good and bad days in Primbon can only be done after knowing the neptu.

Yes, in Javanese tradition, the birth days are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, as well as the pasaran Legi, Pahing, Pon, Wage, and Kliwon, each have their own numerical values. Neptu is obtained by combining these values. Here are the values of each Javanese birth day and pasaran.

- Wednesday: 7

- Thursday: 8

- Friday: 6

3. How to Calculate Neptu

After knowing the value of each birth day and market, it's time to learn how to calculate neptu. Neptu is obtained by combining or adding up the values of the birth day and market. To make it easier, consider the following example.

Andi was born on May 25, 1998, which at that time indicated Monday as the birth day and Javanese market day of kliwon. So, the result for the neptu weton is:

4 + 8 = 12

From this result, the total neptu value is obtained as 12. This total can be used to determine fortune, auspicious days, soulmates, and even someone's character.
