Aries and Leo Compatibility: Guna Milan Score 14/15, Love & Marriage
Aries and Leo Compatibility at a Glance
When the Moon is in Aries (Mesh rashi, ruled by Mars) for one partner and in Leo (Singh rashi, ruled by Sun) for the other, the four rashi-based kootas of Ashtakoot Guna Milan score 14 out of 15 — a strong base for marriage. There is no Bhakoot dosha.
These scores use the Moon sign (rashi), not the Western Sun sign. The remaining 21 of the 36 gunas depend on each partner's nakshatra, so a full Kundli Milan with both birth details is always the final word.
Aries–Leo Guna Milan: the Rashi Kootas
Only Varna depends on who is the groom — that is why two columns are shown.
| Koota | What it measures | Out of | Aries groom | Leo groom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | Spiritual outlook — Aries is Kshatriya, Leo is Kshatriya | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Vashya | Mutual attraction — Aries is Chatushpada (four-legged), Leo is Vanachara (wild) | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Graha Maitri | Friendship of the sign lords — Mars and Sun | 5 | 5 | 5 |
| Bhakoot | Moon-sign distance: 5/9 — Navpancham | 7 | 7 | 7 |
| Rashi total | 15 | 14 | 14 |
Maximum possible from these four kootas: 15. The scores above are calculated with the same rules as the Astroly Kundli Milan tool.
Bhakoot: Aries and Leo Moon-Sign Distance
Leo is the 5th sign from Aries, which forms the 5/9 — Navpancham (नवपंचम) placement. A 5/9 (trine) placement joins signs of the same element. Some classical texts treat it as a Bhakoot dosha concerning children, but the Astroly Milan engine, like most modern panchangs, scores it in full because the signs are trinal and harmonious.
Graha Maitri: Mars and Sun
Aries is ruled by Mars and Leo by Sun. In classical planetary friendship these lords are friends (or the same planet), giving 5 of 5 points. Graha Maitri is read as mental compatibility — how easily the two agree, argue and make up.
Aries and Leo in Love
In love, Aries is passionate and direct while Leo is warm and dramatic. Two Fire signs share drive and enthusiasm. Life together moves fast; the risk is two strong wills with nobody slowing down.
Aries is a Fire sign and Leo a Fire sign; the Moon in each shows what makes that partner feel safe, which is why rashi matching is used for marriage in India rather than Sun signs.
Aries and Leo Marriage Compatibility
Cardinal starts, Fixed sustains. A productive split — as long as the Cardinal partner does not rush the Fixed one. Aries brings courage and leadership, Leo brings leadership and warmth.
Areas to manage: Aries's impatience and Leo's ego. Couples with this pairing usually do best when they agree early on roles, money and family expectations.
