Aquarius (Kumbha) compatibility in Vedic astrology
How a Aquarius Moon sign matches each of the twelve signs, scored on the four parts of guna milan that the Moon sign decides.
In Vedic astrology, compatibility is read from the Moon sign (rashi), not the Sun sign used in Western astrology. If you don’t know your Moon sign, find it here. The table reads his Moon sign as Aquarius; the scores for two signs differ only in varna and vashya when you swap who is who.
| Her Moon sign | Bhakoot | Sign score | Overall |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aries Mesha | 3/11 | 8.5/15 | Mixed |
| Taurus Vrishabha | 4/10 | 13/15 | Very good |
| Gemini Mithuna | 5/9 (navapanchama) | 7/15 | Needs care |
| Cancer Karka | 6/8 (shadashtaka) | 1/15 | Needs care |
| Leo Simha | 1/7, opposite signs | 7/15 | Mixed |
| Virgo Kanya | 6/8 (shadashtaka) | 6/15 | Needs care |
| Libra Tula | 5/9 (navapanchama) | 8/15 | Mixed |
| Scorpio Vrishchika | 4/10 | 7.5/15 | Mixed |
| Sagittarius Dhanu | 3/11 | 11–12/15 | Good |
| Capricorn Makara | 2/12 (dwirdwadasha) | 5.5–6/15 | Mixed |
| Aquarius Kumbha | same sign | 15/15 | Very good |
| Pisces Meena | 2/12 (dwirdwadasha) | 3.5/15 | Needs care |
The Moon sign decides four of the eight kootas: varna (1 point), vashya (2), graha maitri (5) and bhakoot (7), so 15 of the 36 points. The other 21 (tara, yoni, gana and nadi, including the 8-point nadi koota) depend on the nakshatra, so they need birth details. Varna and vashya are read from the groom to the bride, as the texts do; graha maitri and bhakoot are the same either way.
Aquarius with each sign
Aquarius and Aries
A 3/11 relationship is favourable: the signs support each other’s efforts and gains. The rulers are Saturn and Mars: Saturn treats Mars as an enemy, and Mars treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 0/1 · vashya 1/2 · graha maitri 0.5/5 · bhakoot 7/7.
Aquarius and Taurus
A 4/10 relationship is favourable: home and work, comfort and duty, sit well together. The rulers are Saturn and Venus: Saturn treats Venus as a friend, and Venus treats Saturn as a friend. Varna 0/1 · vashya 1/2 · graha maitri 5/5 · bhakoot 7/7.
Aquarius and Gemini
A 5/9 relationship is bhakoot dosha in the guna milan count, traditionally linked to concerns about children. Many astrologers treat 5/9 as mild, because 5 and 9 are trines. The rulers are Saturn and Mercury: Saturn treats Mercury as a friend, and Mercury treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 1/1 · vashya 2/2 · graha maitri 4/5 · bhakoot 0/7.
Aquarius and Cancer
A 6/8 relationship is the most serious bhakoot dosha, traditionally linked to quarrels, health and separation. The rulers are Saturn and Moon: Saturn treats Moon as an enemy, and Moon treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 0/1 · vashya 0.5/2 · graha maitri 0.5/5 · bhakoot 0/7.
Aquarius and Leo
Opposite signs (samasaptaka) face each other and complement each other; this is a favourable bhakoot. The rulers are Saturn and Sun: Saturn treats Sun as an enemy, and Sun treats Saturn as an enemy. Varna 0/1 · vashya 0/2 · graha maitri 0/5 · bhakoot 7/7.
Aquarius and Virgo
A 6/8 relationship is the most serious bhakoot dosha, traditionally linked to quarrels, health and separation. The rulers are Saturn and Mercury: Saturn treats Mercury as a friend, and Mercury treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 0/1 · vashya 2/2 · graha maitri 4/5 · bhakoot 0/7.
Aquarius and Libra
A 5/9 relationship is bhakoot dosha in the guna milan count, traditionally linked to concerns about children. Many astrologers treat 5/9 as mild, because 5 and 9 are trines. Because the two rulers are friends, many astrologers treat this bhakoot dosha as cancelled. The rulers are Saturn and Venus: Saturn treats Venus as a friend, and Venus treats Saturn as a friend. Varna 1/1 · vashya 2/2 · graha maitri 5/5 · bhakoot 0/7.
Aquarius and Scorpio
A 4/10 relationship is favourable: home and work, comfort and duty, sit well together. The rulers are Saturn and Mars: Saturn treats Mars as an enemy, and Mars treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 0/1 · vashya 0/2 · graha maitri 0.5/5 · bhakoot 7/7.
Aquarius and Sagittarius
A 3/11 relationship is favourable: the signs support each other’s efforts and gains. The rulers are Saturn and Jupiter: Saturn treats Jupiter as neutral, and Jupiter treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 0/1 · vashya 1–2/2 · graha maitri 3/5 · bhakoot 7/7.
Aquarius and Capricorn
A 2/12 relationship is bhakoot dosha. The tradition links it to strain over money and expenses. Because both signs share one ruler, many astrologers treat this bhakoot dosha as cancelled. Both signs are ruled by Saturn, the closest possible link between the rulers. Varna 0/1 · vashya 0.5–1/2 · graha maitri 5/5 · bhakoot 0/7.
Aquarius and Aquarius
Both Moons in one sign: a shared emotional temperament. Bhakoot is full; check the nakshatras, since the same nakshatra raises other questions. Both signs are ruled by Saturn, the closest possible link between the rulers. Varna 1/1 · vashya 2/2 · graha maitri 5/5 · bhakoot 7/7.
Aquarius and Pisces
A 2/12 relationship is bhakoot dosha. The tradition links it to strain over money and expenses. The rulers are Saturn and Jupiter: Saturn treats Jupiter as neutral, and Jupiter treats Saturn as neutral. Varna 0/1 · vashya 0.5/2 · graha maitri 3/5 · bhakoot 0/7.
For a full match
Sign compatibility is a first look. A proper match counts all 36 gunas from both nakshatras, checks nadi and manglik dosha, and then compares the two charts. Match two birth charts, or read how the 36 gunas work.
