In short: by sign alone, Sagittarius and Aquarius are a strong match. Real compatibility depends on the whole birth charts of both people, especially the Moon signs, Venus and the 7th house.
How you connect
Fire and air feed each other: air brings ideas and talk, fire turns them into action. It is one of the easiest mixes, social and full of plans.
One of you is steady (fixed) and the other changeable (mutable). The steady one gives roots, the flexible one keeps life fresh.
Your signs are in a friendly angle: you enjoy each other's company and support each other's goals.
Love and marriage
Love feels exciting and friendly. The risk is starting many things and finishing few, so ground your plans.
The Vedic view (Moon signs)
In Indian astrology, compatibility is read from the Moon signs (rashi) of the two people. Two of the eight kootas in Ashtakoot matching depend only on the signs: Bhakoot (7 points) and Graha Maitri (5 points).
In simple words: the two signs sit well together, which supports harmony. The birth stars of both people decide the rest of the match.
For astrology students: Bhakoot, Graha Maitri, Varna and Vashya
Your signs are 3rd and 11th from each other, which gives the full 7 of 7 Bhakoot points in Vedic matching.
Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter and Aquarius by Saturn. Jupiter treats Saturn as neutral and Saturn treats Jupiter as neutral, giving 3 of 5 Graha Maitri points.
Two more kootas depend only on the signs, but they are read from the groom's side, so they can differ depending on who is who:
| Pair | Varna (1) | Vashya (2) | Graha Maitri (5) | Bhakoot (7) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Groom Sagittarius, bride Aquarius | 1 | 1–2 | 3 | 7 |
| Groom Aquarius, bride Sagittarius | 0 | 1–2 | 3 | 7 |
Varna: Sagittarius is Kshatriya, Aquarius is Shudra. Vashya group: Sagittarius is Manava (human) or Chatushpada (four-footed) (by degree), Aquarius is Manava (human). Together these four give up to 15 of the 36 points.
The other 21 points (Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi) come from the birth stars (nakshatras), so check the full 36-point match with both birth dates: free kundli matching.
