Marriage and Compatibility
Revati belongs to the Deva gana and Antya nadi. In matching, a partner from the same nadi (Krittika, Rohini, Ashlesha and Magha and others) creates Nadi dosha unless an exception applies. Deva gana matches best with Deva and Manushya.
Birth dasha
Someone born with the Moon in Revati starts life in the Mercury Mahadasha. The balance depends on how far the Moon had travelled through the nakshatra at birth.
