Sagittarius + Aquarius compatibility

Graha Maitri — how the two minds meet (5 points)

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and Aquarius by Saturn; the two lords are broadly neutral to each other — neither lifting nor grating. On the classical scoring this gives 3 of 5 points. Because the Moon stands for the mind in Jyotish, this koota is read as the ease of mental and emotional understanding between the two people.

Bhakoot — the sign-to-sign count (7 points)

Counted around the zodiac, Aquarius is the 3rd sign from Sagittarius, and Sagittarius the 11th from Aquarius. That is not one of the three dosha patterns (2–12, 5–9 or 6–8), so Bhakoot scores its full 7 points — the heaviest sign-level factor in this pairing’s favour.

Vashya and Varna — the smaller sign factors (3 points)

Vashya groups the signs into five classical classes and asks how naturally the two classes get on. Sagittarius belongs to the Manava group and Aquarius to the Manava group, scoring 2 of 2. Varna assigns each sign a rank by element (Sagittarius is Kshatriya, Aquarius is Shudra); it is a directional 1-point check — read from Sagittarius’s side it gives 1, from Aquarius’s side 0. Both are light factors beside Graha Maitri and Bhakoot.

Elements and temperament

Sagittarius is a dual fire sign and Aquarius a fixed air sign. These classical groupings sit outside the point system but colour how the scored factors play out day to day.

The other 21 points need your nakshatras

Tara (3), Yoni (4), Gana (6) and Nadi (8) — 21 of the 36 gunas — depend on each person’s birth nakshatra, not just the sign, which is why two couples with the same moon signs can match very differently. A full Guna Milan takes both people’s date, time and place of birth; the app computes it in your browser and explains every koota in plain language.

Frequently asked

Are Sagittarius and Aquarius moon signs compatible?

At the sign level, this pairing leans supportive at the sign level: of the 15 sign-based gunas it scores 12.5 (Graha Maitri 3/5, Vashya 2/2, Bhakoot 7/7). The other 21 of the 36 gunas depend on the two birth nakshatras, so a full Guna Milan needs complete birth details.

Is there Bhakoot dosha between Sagittarius and Aquarius?

No — counted from each other these signs form a 3/11 relationship, which is not one of the three dosha patterns (2–12, 5–9, 6–8), so Bhakoot scores its full 7 points.

Is sign compatibility the same as Kundali matching?

No — it is the coarse half. Four of the eight kootas (Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri, Bhakoot — 15 of 36 points) depend only on the moon signs and are shown here. The other four (Tara, Yoni, Gana, Nadi — 21 points) need each person’s birth nakshatra, which is why a proper match uses full birth details.
