Capricorn and Taurus Compatibility: Guna Milan Score 14/15, Love & Marriage
Capricorn and Taurus Compatibility at a Glance
When the Moon is in Capricorn (Makar rashi, ruled by Saturn) for one partner and in Taurus (Vrishabh rashi, ruled by Venus) 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.
Capricorn–Taurus 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 | Capricorn groom | Taurus groom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | Spiritual outlook — Capricorn is Brahmin, Taurus is Brahmin | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Vashya | Mutual attraction — Capricorn is Jalachara (water), Taurus is Chatushpada (four-legged) | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Graha Maitri | Friendship of the sign lords — Saturn and Venus | 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: Capricorn and Taurus Moon-Sign Distance
Taurus is the 5th sign from Capricorn, 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: Saturn and Venus
Capricorn is ruled by Saturn and Taurus by Venus. 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.
Capricorn and Taurus in Love
In love, Capricorn is committed and steady while Taurus is devoted and steady. Two Earth signs build steadily. Shared practicality and loyalty make a stable home; the risk is routine replacing romance.
Capricorn is an Earth sign and Taurus an Earth 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.
