Taurus and Aquarius compatibility
Two Moon signs fix 13–14 of the 36 gun milan points; depending on the nakshatras, the full score runs from 19 to 31.5. Every number is computed by our kundli-matching code — no guessed percentage.
Moon signs, not Sun signs
Most pages you find for “Taurus and Aquarius compatibility” are about Western Sun signs — the Sun's sign on your birthday, in the tropical zodiac — and many add a percentage no rule produces. This page uses the Vedic Moon sign (rashi): the sign the Moon was in at birth, in the sidereal (Lahiri) zodiac. For most people the two are different signs, and gun milan is built on the Moon sign and nakshatra.
The points the signs fix
| Koota | Max | Groom Taurus, bride Aquarius | Groom Aquarius, bride Taurus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | 1 | 1 | 0 |
| Vashya | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Graha Maitri | 5 | 5 | 5 |
| Bhakoot | 7 | 7 | 7 |
| Fixed by the signs | 15 | 14 | 13 |
| Tara + yoni + gana + nadi (need nakshatras) | 21 | 6–17.5 | 6–17.5 |
| Full score — possible range | 36 | 20–31.5 | 19–30.5 |
Traditional gun milan reads some kootas (varna, gana) from the groom's side to the bride's, so both directions are shown. The ranges come from running every nakshatra these two signs can hold (and both vashya halves of Sagittarius and Capricorn) through our kundli-matching code.

Match two kundlisTaurus and Aquarius: the traditional reading
Element and nature
An earth Moon with an air Moon. Earth wants the plan, air wants the possibilities. Read well, one grounds and the other widens the view; the care point is that each may find the other either too fixed or too restless. Both signs are fixed (sthira): loyal and consistent, and also slow to give ground in a disagreement. (Taurus: earth, fixed; Aquarius: air, fixed.)
The lords' friendship
Taurus is ruled by Venus, Aquarius by Saturn. In natural friendship Venus counts Saturn as a friend, and Saturn counts Venus as a friend — mutual friends. That gives graha maitri 5 of 5, read as how easily the two minds meet.
Bhakoot: 4/10
The signs are fourth and tenth from each other — the houses of home and of work. Bhakoot gives the full 7; tradition reads a pairing where one partner's comfort and the other's ambitions can support each other. (Aquarius is the 10th sign from Taurus, and Taurus the 4th from Aquarius.)
Varna and vashya
Varna follows the Moon sign's element (water Brahmin, fire Kshatriya, earth Vaishya, air Shudra — classical labels for temperament, not the person's caste): Taurus is Vaishya, Aquarius is Shudra. Varna is read one way — 1 point when the groom's varna is equal to or higher than the bride's — so it scores 1 when the groom's Moon is in Taurus and 0 when it is in Aquarius. Vashya groups: Taurus quadruped (chatushpad), Aquarius human (manav) — 1 of 2.
What stays unknown without the nakshatras
Of the 36 points, 15 (varna, vashya, graha maitri, bhakoot) are fixed by the two Moon signs alone; for Taurus and Aquarius they come to 13–14. The other 21 (tara, yoni, gana, nadi) depend on the birth nakshatras — across every nakshatra these two signs can hold, they range 6–17.5. So the full score can be anywhere from 19 to 31.5. Every nakshatra pairing reaches the traditional line of 18.
Nadi (8 points) is the heaviest koota and depends entirely on the nakshatras. Between these signs, these nakshatra pairings share a nadi and score 0 for it: Mrigashira – Dhanishta. Every other pairing gets the full 8.
| Nakshatra | Dhanishta | Shatabhisha | Purva Bhadrapada |
|---|---|---|---|
| Krittika | 30.5 | 31.5 | 24.5 |
| Rohini | 27 | 26.5 | 31.5 |
| Mrigashira | 20(nadi) | 29 | 31.5 |
| Nakshatra | Krittika | Rohini | Mrigashira |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dhanishta | 29.5 | 26 | 19(nadi) |
| Shatabhisha | 30.5 | 25.5 | 28 |
| Purva Bhadrapada | 23.5 | 30.5 | 29.5 |
Tradition takes 18 or more as acceptable; cells below 18 are shown lighter. The number alone decides nothing — the exceptions, both whole charts and, above all, the two people matter.
Frequently asked questions
Are Taurus and Aquarius compatible in Vedic astrology?
The signs alone cannot say. 13–14 of the 36 gun milan points are fixed by the two Moon signs (bhakoot relation: 4/10); depending on the nakshatras, the full score can be anywhere from 19 to 31.5. For the exact score, match both birth charts.
Why do other sites give a compatibility percentage?
No rule of gun milan produces a percentage for a pair of signs. We show only what the calculation gives: the points the signs fix, and the range of the points that depend on the nakshatras.
Is this about Sun signs?
No. This uses the Vedic Moon sign — the Moon's sign at birth, sidereal (Lahiri). Find yours with the free kundli or the rashi calculator.
