Virgo and Sagittarius compatibility
Two Moon signs fix 8.5–10.5 of the 36 gun milan points; depending on the nakshatras, the full score runs from 11 to 29.5. Every number is computed by our kundli-matching code — no guessed percentage.
Moon signs, not Sun signs
Most pages you find for “Virgo and Sagittarius 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 Virgo, bride Sagittarius | Groom Sagittarius, bride Virgo |
|---|---|---|---|
| Varna | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| Vashya | 2 | 1–2 | 1–2 |
| Graha Maitri | 5 | 0.5 | 0.5 |
| Bhakoot | 7 | 7 | 7 |
| Fixed by the signs | 15 | 8.5–9.5 | 9.5–10.5 |
| Tara + yoni + gana + nadi (need nakshatras) | 21 | 2.5–19 | 2.5–19 |
| Full score — possible range | 36 | 11–28.5 | 12–29.5 |
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 kundlisVirgo and Sagittarius: the traditional reading
Element and nature
A fire Moon with an earth Moon. Tradition pairs fire's drive with earth's patience: one starts, the other sustains. The friction, when it comes, is over speed — one wants to move now, the other wants to be sure. Both signs are dual (dvisvabhava): adaptable and open, and sometimes both waiting for the other to decide. (Virgo: earth, dual; Sagittarius: fire, dual.)
The lords' friendship
Virgo is ruled by Mercury, Sagittarius by Jupiter. In natural friendship Mercury counts Jupiter as neutral, and Jupiter counts Mercury as an enemy — neutral and enemy. That gives graha maitri 0.5 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. (Sagittarius is the 4th sign from Virgo, and Virgo the 10th from Sagittarius.)
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): Virgo is Vaishya, Sagittarius is Kshatriya. Varna is read one way — 1 point when the groom's varna is equal to or higher than the bride's — so it scores 0 when the groom's Moon is in Virgo and 1 when it is in Sagittarius. Vashya groups: Virgo human (manav), Sagittarius human (manav) / quadruped (chatushpad) — 1–2 of 2. Sagittarius counts as human in its first 15° and quadruped after, so here vashya depends on the Moon's degree and is shown as a range.
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 Virgo and Sagittarius they come to 8.5–10.5. The other 21 (tara, yoni, gana, nadi) depend on the birth nakshatras — across every nakshatra these two signs can hold, they range 2.5–19. So the full score can be anywhere from 11 to 29.5. Some nakshatra pairings fall below the traditional line of 18 and some clear it — so the signs alone cannot answer the question.
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: Uttara Phalguni – Mula; Hasta – Mula; Chitra – Purva Ashadha. Every other pairing gets the full 8.
| Nakshatra | Mula | Purva Ashadha | Uttara Ashadha |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uttara Phalguni | 13(nadi) | 27.5–28.5 | 27.5 |
| Hasta | 14(nadi) | 26–27 | 27.5 |
| Chitra | 26 | 11–12(nadi) | 20 |
| Nakshatra | Uttara Phalguni | Hasta | Chitra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mula | 14(nadi) | 15(nadi) | 27 |
| Purva Ashadha | 28.5–29.5 | 26–27 | 12–13(nadi) |
| Uttara Ashadha | 28.5 | 27.5 | 21 |
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 Virgo and Sagittarius compatible in Vedic astrology?
The signs alone cannot say. 8.5–10.5 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 11 to 29.5. 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.
