Compatibility breakdown
Vedic compatibility · Rashi Kundli Milan
Beyond the sun signs, Vedic astrology matches the two Moon signs (Rashis) across the Ashtakoota — the eight kootas of Gun Milan. Three of them can be read from the Rashis alone; here is how Capricorn (lord Saturn) and Aries (lord Mars) score.
Saturn and Mars sit in a neutral-to-inimical relationship — the two minds must work to meet each other halfway.
The 4/10 (Kendra) axis balances home and duty — a stable, dharmic pairing with complementary roles.
Capricorn is Shudra (Earth) and Aries is Kshatriya (Fire) — a wider gap in spiritual temperament, so each must honour the other's very different inner values.
Capricorn and Aries land in the workable middle of the Rashi kootas. Saturn and Mars sit in a neutral-to-inimical relationship — the two minds must work to meet each other halfway. The 4/10 (Kendra) axis balances home and duty — a stable, dharmic pairing with complementary roles. The birth Nakshatras (Nadi, Yoni, Gana, Tara) decide the rest.
The remaining five kootas — Nadi (health & progeny, 8 pts), Bhakoot's nakshatra nuance, Gana (temperament, 6 pts),Yoni (intimacy, 4 pts) and Tara (destiny, 3 pts) — plus Mangal (Manglik) Dosha and Nadi-dosha cancellation need both birth Nakshatras and times. That is the full 36-guna Gun Milan, and it is free below.
