Vrishabha (Taurus) and Karka (Cancer) Rashi Compatibility
As moon signs, Vrishabha and Karka score 8 of the 15 sign-based points in Guna Milan. Vrishabha is a earth sign and Karka a water sign. The remaining 21 points depend on the two birth stars.
The four sign-based kootas
| Koota · what it measures | Points | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Varna spiritual and work-ethic compatibility | 0 / 1 | None |
| Vashya how naturally you'll influence and defer to each other, day to day | 0 / 2 | None |
| Graha Maitri mental compatibility — how alike your thinking styles are | 1 / 5 | Partial |
| Bhakoot love, family growth, and financial harmony over time | 7 / 7 | Full |
Why Vrishabha and Karka score this way
Bhakoot, worth 7 of the 15, scores in full: counted from Vrishabha, Karka is the 3rd sign, and counted back it is the 11th — not the 6/8 position this calculator flags as Bhakoot dosha.
Vrishabha is ruled by Venus and Karka by Moon. Their planetary friendship sets Graha Maitri at 1 of 5 — the mental-compatibility koota — and Vashya at 0 of 2. Varna scores 0 of 1: the two signs fall in different varna groups in this calculation. It is the lightest koota and rarely decides anything on its own.
Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi — 21 of the 36 points, including the heavily weighted Nadi — come from the nakshatra, not the sign. Two Vrishabha–Karka couples can land far apart once the stars are in. See the nakshatra compatibility chart for that half.
