Revati Nakshatra

All four padas are in Meen (Pisces).

Tattva here is the nakshatra's own element in the five-block scheme AstroSage also prints (Ashwini to Mrigashira earth, Ardra to Purva Phalguni water, Uttara Phalguni to Anuradha fire, Jyeshtha to Shravana air, Dhanishta to Revati ether) — not the element of the Moon sign.

The naming letters for Revati are De, Do, Cha, Chee, one per pada. In the Namakaran tradition a child is named beginning with the sound of the pada the Moon occupied at birth, so the pada — not just the nakshatra — decides the letter.

Varna is given per pada because Ashtakoota matching scores the varna of the Moon sign (water signs Brahmin, fire Kshatriya, earth Vaishya, air Shudra). Some tables also assign a varna to the nakshatra itself; those lists disagree from source to source and matching does not use them.

Revati is the last of the 27 and belongs to Pushan, guardian of travellers and of animals that have strayed, which the tradition reads as care for those still finding their way. Its symbol is a pair of fish. Natives are described as gentle, imaginative, kind and protective, often drawn to art, caregiving, teaching and travel. Mercury as lord gives a quick, adaptable mind. The caution is over-sensitivity, and trusting people who have not yet earned it.

A nakshatra describes the Moon's position, which millions of people share. It is read as a tendency to reflect on, alongside the whole chart — not as a verdict on a person.

Nadi. Revati is Antya (Kapha) nadi. When both birth stars share a nadi, Guna Milan's Nadi koota scores 0 of 8 (nadi dosha), so a match with any of these stars starts with that gap: Krittika, Rohini, Ashlesha, Magha, Swati, Vishakha, Uttara Ashadha, Shravana. Several traditions list exceptions that cancel the dosha; read the full 36-point report rather than one koota.

Yoni. Revati is Elephant yoni. The same yoni — Bharani — scores the full 4 of 4. Its sworn-enemy yoni is Lion, so Dhanishta, Purva Bhadrapada score 0 of 4 in either direction.

Gana. Revati is Deva gana. The Gana koota is directional — the score depends on which partner is the groom — and these are the engine's own values:

Nadi, yoni and gana are 18 of the 36 points; the rest come from the Moon signs and the count between the two stars. Full kundli matching · Matching by name · Nakshatra porutham

Revati is one of the six gandmool nakshatras — Ashwini, Ashlesha, Magha, Jyeshtha, Moola, Revati — the stars that sit at the three junctions where a water sign ends and a fire sign begins. Many families have a gandmool shanti performed for a child born with the Moon in one of them, traditionally on the day the Moon returns to the same star about 27 days later. It is a ritual observance, not a forecast: a very large number of people are born in these stars and live entirely ordinary lives.

Times are for Hyderabad. The Moon enters and leaves a nakshatra at the same instant everywhere, so another city changes only the clock these are written in. The Moon takes about 27.3 days to come back to the same star and stays roughly a day each time.
