Sagittarius and Aquarius Compatibility
Sagittarius and Aquarius compatibility: Sagittarius and Aquarius are an independent, idealistic and adventurous pair: friends first, they share big ideas, causes and a love of freedom. In Vedic matching, where the sign is the Moon sign, Sagittarius and Aquarius take 10 of the 12 points two Moon signs decide: Bhakoot 7 of 7 (the 3-11 axis) and Graha Maitri 3 of 5.
Aquarius enjoys Sagittarius's enthusiasm; Sagittarius admires Aquarius's originality. Both value freedom and honesty, and neither smothers the other. They can talk for hours about philosophy, politics or the future, and travel and big groups of friends suit them.
Sagittarius loves with open hands: honest, optimistic and freedom-loving, allergic to being fenced in.
Aquarius loves as a friend first: independent, idealistic and unconventional, needing room to think.
Both can be detached and avoid emotional depth, and Aquarius's fixed opinions clash with Sagittarius's love of debate. With so much freedom on both sides, commitment can stay undefined for years.
Make room for emotional closeness and for commitments you share. A home, a project or a cause gives the bond a centre. Agree out loud what being together means.

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and Aquarius by Saturn. Jupiter counts Saturn neutral, and Saturn counts Jupiter neutral: Graha Maitri gives 3 of 5.
Bhakoot and Graha Maitri are the two kootas the Moon signs settle on their own and that read the same whichever partner is counted first. Varna and Vashya also read the signs but depend on who is the groom; Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi need both birth stars.

- Aspect
- Sextile, 2 signs apart
Fire and air: air feeds fire, so ideas meet action and each keeps the other lively.
Fixed and mutable: one holds steady while the other shifts, stability meeting flexibility.
Two signs apart (a sextile): complementary elements and an easy, cooperative link.
Sun-sign compatibility describes two signs, not two people: read it as the tradition's tendencies, and match two real charts with kundli matching.
Here the two systems agree. Western astrology counts a sextile among its easy aspects, and Vedic matching gives the same 3-11 spacing the full 7 Bhakoot points.
A Vedic sign is the Moon's sign in the sidereal zodiac; a Western sign is usually the Sun's, in the tropical zodiac. Your two signs are often different, so check which reading is about you.
Two signs are a starting point. Your own match reads both full birth charts — all 36 Guna Milan points, Manglik dosha and the 7th houses — so a Sagittarius and a Aquarius can score anywhere.
- Kundli matching by birth details: the full 36-point Guna Milan
- Compatibility by date of birth: Moon signs, nakshatras and the koota scores
- Matching by name, when birth times are not known
- Find your rashi: your Moon sign from your birth details
Sagittarius and Aquarius Compatibility: Questions
Are Sagittarius and Aquarius compatible?
Sagittarius and Aquarius are an independent, idealistic and adventurous pair: friends first, they share big ideas, causes and a love of freedom. In Vedic matching, where the sign is the Moon sign, Sagittarius and Aquarius take 10 of the 12 points two Moon signs decide: Bhakoot 7 of 7 (the 3-11 axis) and Graha Maitri 3 of 5. A couple's own match needs both birth charts.
Is there Bhakoot dosha between Sagittarius and Aquarius?
No. The Moon signs are 3rd and 11th from each other: Bhakoot gives its full 7 points. Bhakoot dosha needs the Moon signs 2 and 12, 6 and 8, or 5 and 9 apart.
What is the Sagittarius and Aquarius compatibility percentage?
No single percentage is honest for two signs. Of the 36 Guna Milan points, the two Moon signs alone decide 12, and Sagittarius and Aquarius take 10 of them. The other 24 depend on the two birth stars and, for 3 of them, on which partner is the groom, so kundli matching gives your own score.
Is my Western zodiac sign the same as my rashi?
Often not. A Western sign is usually the Sun's sign in the tropical zodiac; a rashi is the Moon's sign in the sidereal zodiac, and Vedic matching reads the rashi. The rashi calculator finds yours from your date, time and place of birth.
