Leo and Aries Compatibility: Guna Milan Score 14/15, Love & Marriage
Leo and Aries Compatibility at a Glance
When the Moon is in Leo (Singh rashi, ruled by Sun) for one partner and in Aries (Mesh rashi, ruled by Mars) 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.
Leo–Aries 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 | Leo groom | Aries groom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | Spiritual outlook — Leo is Kshatriya, Aries is Kshatriya | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Vashya | Mutual attraction — Leo is Vanachara (wild), Aries is Chatushpada (four-legged) | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Graha Maitri | Friendship of the sign lords — Sun and Mars | 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: Leo and Aries Moon-Sign Distance
Aries is the 9th sign from Leo, 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: Sun and Mars
Leo is ruled by Sun and Aries by Mars. 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.
Leo and Aries in Love
In love, Leo is warm and dramatic while Aries is passionate and direct. Two Fire signs share drive and enthusiasm. Life together moves fast; the risk is two strong wills with nobody slowing down.
Leo is a Fire sign and Aries 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.
