Sagittarius and Scorpio Compatibility: Guna Milan Score 13–14/15, Love & Marriage
Sagittarius and Scorpio Compatibility at a Glance
When the Moon is in Sagittarius (Dhanu rashi, ruled by Jupiter) 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.
Sagittarius–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 | Sagittarius groom | Scorpio groom |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | Spiritual outlook — Sagittarius is Kshatriya, Scorpio is Shudra | 1 | 1 | 0 |
| Vashya | Mutual attraction — Sagittarius is Chatushpada (four-legged), Scorpio is Keeta (insect) | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Graha Maitri | Friendship of the sign lords — Jupiter and Mars | 5 | 5 | 5 |
| Bhakoot | Moon-sign distance: 2/12 — Dwirdwadash | 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: Sagittarius and Scorpio Moon-Sign Distance
Scorpio is the 12th sign from Sagittarius, which forms the 2/12 — Dwirdwadash (द्विर्द्वादश) placement. The signs are next to each other. Classical texts link the 2/12 placement to friction over money, spending and family expectations, which is why Bhakoot scores it 0 unless the rashi lords rescue it. Here the dosha is cancelled — the rashi lords (Jupiter and Mars) are mutual friends. so the full 7 points are restored — exactly as the Astroly Milan calculator scores it.
Graha Maitri: Jupiter and Mars
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and Scorpio 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.
Sagittarius and Scorpio in Love
In love, Sagittarius is free-spirited and honest 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.
Sagittarius 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.
