Kumbha vs Aquarius — the sidereal difference
Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac, fixed to the actual stars, while Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac. The two differ by about 24° (the ayanamsa), which is why your Vedic sign is often one sign earlier than your Western one. Vedic astrology also leans on the Moon sign (Rashi) and nakshatra more than the Sun.

What is Kumbha Rashi?
Kumbha is the Vedic (sidereal) zodiac sign corresponding to Aquarius, ruled by Saturn (and Rahu), a Air sign. In Vedic astrology the Rashi usually refers to your Moon sign.
Is Kumbha the same as Aquarius?
They share a name and nature, but Vedic astrology is sidereal — shifted ~24° from the Western tropical zodiac. Because of this, your Vedic sign is often one back from your Western Sun sign, so check your actual chart.
Who is Kumbha compatible with?
Traditionally Kumbha harmonises with other Air rashis and complementary elements, but real Vedic compatibility uses Moon nakshatras (the 36-guna Ashtakoota system), not sign alone.
