Sagittarius and Aquarius Compatibility: Guna Milan Score 8–9/15, Love & Marriage

By the Astroly Astrology Desk · Updated Sep 30, 2026 · 3 min read

Sagittarius and Aquarius Compatibility at a Glance

When the Moon is in Sagittarius (Dhanu rashi, ruled by Jupiter) for one partner and in Aquarius (Kumbh rashi, ruled by Saturn) for the other, the four rashi-based kootas of Ashtakoot Guna Milan score 8–9 out of 15 — a workable 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.

Sagittarius–Aquarius Guna Milan: the Rashi Kootas

Only Varna depends on who is the groom — that is why two columns are shown.

Maximum possible from these four kootas: 15. The scores above are calculated with the same rules as the Astroly Kundli Milan tool.

Bhakoot: Sagittarius and Aquarius Moon-Sign Distance

Aquarius is the 3rd sign from Sagittarius, which forms the 3/11 (तृतीय-एकादश) placement. A 3/11 placement is read as supportive: one partner's efforts feed the other's gains. Bhakoot gives full marks and the pairing tends to be sociable and practical.

Graha Maitri: Jupiter and Saturn

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and Aquarius by Saturn. In classical planetary friendship these lords are not friends, giving 0 of 5 points. Graha Maitri is read as mental compatibility — how easily the two agree, argue and make up.

Sagittarius and Aquarius in Love

In love, Sagittarius is free-spirited and honest while Aquarius is unconventional and loyal. Fire and Air feed each other — Air fans Fire's plans and Fire energises Air's ideas. A lively, social pairing.

Sagittarius is a Fire sign and Aquarius an Air 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.

Sagittarius and Aquarius Marriage Compatibility

Fixed brings constancy, Mutable brings flexibility. They steady and loosen each other in turn. Sagittarius brings wisdom and enthusiasm, Aquarius brings originality and vision.

Areas to manage: Sagittarius's bluntness and Aquarius's detachment. Couples with this pairing usually do best when they agree early on roles, money and family expectations.

Strengths of This Match

  • Sagittarius brings wisdom
  • Sagittarius brings enthusiasm
  • Aquarius brings originality
  • Aquarius brings vision
  • 3/11 Moon placement — no Bhakoot dosha

Challenges to Watch

  • Sagittarius: bluntness
  • Aquarius: detachment
  • Graha Maitri is 0/5 — the lords Jupiter and Saturn are not natural friends

What the Rashi Score Does Not Cover

  • Tara (3) — birth-star harmony
  • Yoni (4) — physical and intimate compatibility
  • Gana (6) — temperament: Deva, Manushya or Rakshasa
  • Nadi (8) — the most heavily weighted koota; Nadi dosha is checked before any marriage

Two Sagittarius–Aquarius couples can end up anywhere from about 8 to 30 out of 36 depending on their nakshatras. Mangal (Manglik) dosha is also checked separately.

Final Verdict

Sagittarius and Aquarius score 8–9/15 on the rashi kootas — a workable match at sign level with no Bhakoot dosha. Fire and Air feed each other — Air fans Fire's plans and Fire energises Air's ideas.
