About Revati

Revati lies from 16°40′ to 30°00′ Pisces and is ruled by Mercury. Its deity is Pushan, the nourisher, who protects travellers and finds lost cattle, and its symbol is a fish, or a drum that keeps time. It is the last of the 27 nakshatras, and it completes the circle that Ashwini begins.

Revati is a nakshatra of care, protection and safe passage. It is gentle, generous and devoted, and it guides others home. It is classed as soft (mridu), favouring friendship, the arts, marriage and gentle beginnings. It ends Pisces at a gandanta point, where water gives way to fire.
