Aries and Scorpio Compatibility: Guna Milan Score 13–14/15, Love & Marriage
Aries and Scorpio Compatibility at a Glance
When the Moon is in Aries (Mesh rashi, ruled by Mars) for one partner and in Scorpio (Vrishchik rashi, ruled by Mars) for the other, the four rashi-based kootas of Ashtakoot Guna Milan score 13–14 out of 15 — a strong base for marriage. A Bhakoot dosha forms, but the sign lords cancel it.
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–Scorpio 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 | Scorpio groom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | Spiritual outlook — Aries is Kshatriya, Scorpio is Shudra | 1 | 1 | 0 |
| Vashya | Mutual attraction — Aries is Chatushpada (four-legged), Scorpio is Keeta (insect) | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Graha Maitri | Friendship of the sign lords — Mars and Mars | 5 | 5 | 5 |
| Bhakoot | Moon-sign distance: 6/8 — Shadashtak | 7 | 7 | 7 |
| Rashi total | 15 | 14 | 13 |
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 Scorpio Moon-Sign Distance
Scorpio is the 8th sign from Aries, which forms the 6/8 — Shadashtak (षडाष्टक) placement. The 6/8 placement is the most serious Bhakoot dosha. Classical texts associate it with disputes, health worries and separation, and it scores 0 unless the rashi lords are the same planet or mutual friends. Here the dosha is cancelled — both rashis share the same lord (Mars). so the full 7 points are restored — exactly as the Astroly Milan calculator scores it.
Graha Maitri: Mars and Mars
Both signs are ruled by Mars, so the sign lords are the same planet — Graha Maitri gives the full 5 points and the couple tends to think alike.
Aries and Scorpio in Love
In love, Aries is passionate and direct while Scorpio is deep and transformative. Fire and Water are the steamiest mix: strong attraction, strong reactions. It works when Fire learns gentleness and Water says what it needs.
Aries is a Fire sign and Scorpio a Water 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.
