Taurus and Virgo Moon Sign Compatibility
With the groom's Moon in Taurus and the bride's in Virgo, classical guna milan can land anywhere from 13 to 25 of 36. Across the 81 combinations of birth-star quarters the two signs allow, the average is 22.6. 77 of the 81 reach 18 (95%); the rest fall short by up to 5 points, depending on where in each sign the Moons sit.
Here the groom's Moon is in Taurus and the bride's in Virgo. Two kutas — Varna and Gana — are scored from the groom's side, so the reverse pairing has its own page. Groom Virgo, bride Taurus → हिंदी में पढ़ें
The four sign-level kutas contribute 7 of 15, and Bhakoot's zero accounts for most of the gap; the birth stars supply the other 6–18.
What the two signs settle
Four kutas compare the signs themselves, so they come out the same for every Taurus–Virgo couple.
- Varna — 1/1. Taurus and Virgo sit in the same varna class (Vaishya), so the single point is given.
- Vashya — 1/2. Taurus counts as a quadruped sign and Virgo as a human one; the vashya table gives that 1 of 2.
- Graha Maitri — 5/5. Venus (lord of Taurus) and Mercury (lord of Virgo) are mutual friends, worth 5 of 5.
- Bhakoot — 0/7. Virgo is the 5th sign from Taurus, and Taurus the 9th from Virgo — a 5/9 relationship, one of the three positions (2/12, 5/9, 6/8) that score zero. That zero is what is called bhakoot dosha. Classical texts soften it when the two sign lords are friends both ways, and here Venus and Mercury are, so this site's tool notes the softening.
What depends on the birth stars
Tara, Yoni, Gana and Nadi are read from the two birth stars (nakshatras), not the signs. A Taurus Moon can be in the last three padas of Krittika, Rohini or the first two padas of Mrigashira; a Virgo Moon in the last three padas of Uttara Phalguni, Hasta or the first two padas of Chitra.
- Tara (1.5–3 of 3). Full 3 in 69 of 81 combinations (85%); never below 1.5, because at least one direction of the birth-star count always lands on a favourable tara. The low end comes with, for example, the groom's Moon in Krittika and the bride's in Chitra.
- Yoni (1–3 of 4). No nakshatra in one sign shares a yoni animal with any in the other, so the full 4 is out of reach. No enemy-animal pairing is possible between these signs, so Yoni never falls below 2.
- Gana (0–6 of 6). In Taurus, Krittika is rakshasa; Rohini is manushya; Mrigashira is deva. In Virgo, Uttara Phalguni is manushya; Hasta is deva; Chitra is rakshasa. Gana scores 6 in 40% of combinations and 0 in 21%. The commonest pairing is a manushya groom with a deva bride (16 of 81).
- Nadi (0–8 of 8). 4 of 81 combinations (5%) share a nadi and score 0 — nadi dosha — for example Mrigashira with Chitra. None of them meets the usual classical cancellations.
How the 81 combinations score
| Score | Share | Of 81 |
|---|---|---|
| Under 12 | 0% | 0 |
| 12 – 17½ | 5% | 4 |
| 18 – 23½ | 51% | 41 |
| 24 – 29½ | 44% | 36 |
| 30 – 36 | 0% | 0 |
The highest score, 25, comes with the groom's Moon in Rohini and the bride's in Uttara Phalguni; the lowest, 13, with Mrigashira and Chitra, where Nadi scores zero.
Virgo is 5th from Taurus (5/9)
Where it tends to work
- Taurus and Virgo are in trine — the same element — which modern astrologers generally read as easy mutual understanding.
- From the groom, the bride's Moon is in the 5th — creativity, romance, children; from her, his is in the 9th, belief and fortune.
Where it asks for effort
- Classical Bhakoot nonetheless scores 5/9 at zero, a rule texts tie to concerns about children. Several regional schools do not apply it, which is why other calculators may score this pair higher.
- The dosha is softened here: the two sign lords are friends both ways.
Element and ruling planets
Taurus and Virgo are both earth signs. Earth Moons are practical and steady, more comfortable showing care through what they do than what they say. The risk for Taurus and Virgo Moons is less conflict than routine: both can forget to say the obvious out loud. Element is not one of the eight kutas, so treat this as colour, not score.
Taurus is ruled by Venus and Virgo by Mercury. Venus-ruled Moons tend to look for ease, comfort and pleasantness; Mercury-ruled Moons tend to process feelings by talking them through. By nature Venus regards Mercury as a friend, and Mercury regards Venus as a friend. The friendship runs both ways, which is as good as Graha Maitri gets between two different planets.
What this page can’t tell you
All of this comes from two Moon positions and nothing else. Guna milan does not see the ascendant, the 7th house, Venus, Mars or the dashas either person is running — and it cannot see how two people handle money, conflict or family. Real matching needs both birth charts; better still, it needs a conversation.

Common questions
Is a Taurus Moon groom compatible with a Virgo Moon bride?
By guna milan alone, the score for this pairing ranges from 13 to 25 of 36, averaging 22.6, and 95% of nakshatra combinations reach the conventional 18. That is a statement about two Moon positions. Real compatibility depends on both full charts and, far more, on the two people — use it as a first look, not a decision.
Is there bhakoot dosha between Taurus and Virgo?
Yes. Virgo is 5th from Taurus, a 5/9 relationship, so Bhakoot scores 0 for every couple in this pairing. Classical texts soften it here because the two sign lords are friends both ways. It is a traditional caution, not a prediction.
How likely is nadi dosha for this pair?
5% — 4 of the 81 combinations share a nadi. It depends entirely on the two birth stars, so only the exact nakshatras can tell you.
Does it matter which partner is Taurus?
A little. Varna and Gana are scored from the groom's side, so if the bride is Taurus and the groom Virgo the range becomes 13–25 with an average of 22.7 (against 22.6 here). For a same-gender couple the order shifts the total by at most a point or two.
Which nakshatras give the best result?
For this pairing the top combination is a groom with Moon in Rohini and a bride with Moon in Uttara Phalguni, scoring 25. But no nakshatra is a good or bad one to marry; the useful step is finding your own two — the nakshatra calculator does it in seconds — and then matching the full charts.
