one answer

Of the eight kootas, 4 leave something on the table for this pair and 4 do not. Graha Maitri is the largest at 0.5 of 5 — Revati: Jupiter · Hasta: Mercury. The complete ones are Varna, Gana, Bhakoot and Nadi, which is 22 of the 36 guna earned before any deduction is applied.

The pada does not matter here. 120 of the 351 pairs behave this way and Hasta with Revati is one of them: every one of the sixteen cells in the grid below repeats the same total, so knowing the two birth stars is knowing the score.

Koota by Koota

Pada 1 on each side, and what every koota is reading for Hasta with Revati. Varna and Gana are the two directional tests, which is why each name gets a column: Varna differs between them.

Ashtakoot koota scores for Hasta with Revati at pada 1 on both sides, shown separately for each partner on the bride’s side, with the values each koota reads.

  • Graha Maitri, 0.5 of 5Revati: Jupiter · Hasta: Mercury. Five guna ride on how the two sign lords regard each other, more than any other single test.
  • Tara, 1.5 of 3Counting from Hasta: Sadhaka (6) · from Revati: Pratyari (5). One count of the two is inauspicious and the other is not, which halves the koota.
  • Yoni, 1–3 of 4Revati: Elephant · Hasta: Buffalo. Not the same animal, not a hostile pair, so the graded middle.
  • Vashya, 0–1 of 2Revati: Jalachar · Hasta: Manav. Neither the same group nor the agreed zero, so the graded middle where lineages differ.

Half-guna figures are exact rather than rounded. Each koota’s rule is set out in full on Hasta’s table and Revati’s.

All Sixteen Pada Combinations

Hasta runs Virgo 10°00′ – 23°20′ and Revati runs Pisces 16°40′ – 30°00′ — two arcs 13°20′ wide, each divided into four padas of 3°20′, which puts the two Moons anywhere between 160°00′ and 180°00′ apart. Every cell below holds two totals: Hasta as bride first, Revati as bride second. All sixteen read alike, so the padas can be left out of this one.

Ashtakoot totals out of 36 for Hasta with Revati across all sixteen pada combinations, each cell giving Hasta as bride then Revati as bride, on the strict reading of Yoni and Vashya.
Hasta ↓ / RevatiPada 1PiscesPada 2PiscesPada 3PiscesPada 4Pisces

Pada 4Virgo25 / 2425 / 2425 / 2425 / 24

Strict reading of the two disputed kootas throughout. The generous reading of Yoni and Vashya adds 3 guna to every cell. All sixteen combinations clear the conventional threshold of 18. Dimmed cells fall below it; the nakshatra finder returns the pada from a birth date, time and place.

The Two Doshas, and Whether They Are Cancelled

Nadi and Bhakoot between them decide the shape of a result more than the total does — and both come with classical relief clauses that two named birth stars are enough to test.

Nadi Koota — 8 of 8

Hasta is Adi (Vata) and Revati is Antya (Kapha). Different nadis take the full eight guna, and since Nadi alone is more than a fifth of the total, this pair starts from a position 108 of the 351 pairs never reach.

Bhakoot Koota — 7 of 7 at pada 1

Pisces and Virgo — 7/7 — outside the three forbidden distances of 6/8, 5/9 and 2/12, and it stays outside them in all sixteen pada combinations. Bhakoot is full at seven throughout.

A cancellation is relief, not a score adjustment — the koota still reads zero above. The doshas Ashtakoot does not test for are a separate question — Mangal dosha among them.

Two Tests Outside the 36

The South Indian reckoning runs to ten kootas, and two of the extras are counts between Hasta and Revati alone — so they can be given here and checked by hand.

  • Mahendra — absent. Mahendra wants every third star from the fourth — 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25 — and Hasta to Revati is 15. The two counts always add to 29, so a Mahendra pair holds whichever way round the match is made.
  • Stri-Dirgha — satisfied both ways. This one is directional in earnest: 15 from Hasta and 14 from Revati, against a threshold sources give as seven or as nine. It holds either way round here.

Neither test touches the 36. Muhurta nature is a different question again — Hasta is Kshipra / Laghu (swift and light), Revati is Mridu (tender) — and it governs what each star suits doing, not who it marries.

How the Pair Ranks on Each Side

A total carries meaning against the alternatives rather than on its own, and the alternatives differ for the two stars: 25 of 36 puts Revati 7th among Hasta's 27 possible partners and Hasta 5th among Revati's, both on the pada-1 figures those two tables print.

In Hasta’s table

7th of 27

Revati scores 25 there, level with 1 other partner. Hasta’s 27 partners run from 9 to 28 with a median of 22.5, so this one sits above the middle of what Hasta can reach — all 27 rows.

In Revati’s table

5th of 27

Hasta scores 25 there, level with 3 other partners. Revati’s 27 partners run from 5 to 32 with a median of 21.5, so this one sits above the middle of what Revati can reach — all 27 rows.

What This Total Is Not

The whole of Ashtakoot for Hasta and Revati rests on two arcs of the zodiac 13°20′ wide. Everything a chart is usually read for — the seventh house and its lord, Venus and Mars, Mangal dosha, the dasha each partner is running — sits outside those two arcs and outside this total, which is why good is a starting point for a conversation and not the end of one.

Written rather than computed, and worth the longer read: the guide to all 27 birth stars and kundli matching for marriage, end to end. The full profiles of the two stars — deities, symbols, temperament, the syllables used for naming — are on the Hasta page and the Revati page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many guna do Hasta and Revati score?
25–28 of 36 with Hasta as the bride and 24–27 with Revati as the bride, taking pada 1 on both sides. The padas do not change it — all sixteen combinations give the same answer, which makes this one of the 146 pairs of 351 where the two birth stars settle the score outright. The generous reading of Yoni and Vashya adds 3 guna to every cell. Against every possible pairing of two Moon positions, 63.6% clear 18 and the median is 20.5.
Are Hasta and Revati compatible?
On Ashtakoot the conservative reading puts Hasta with Revati at good. The guna are lost on Graha Maitri (0.5 of 5), Tara (1.5 of 3), Yoni (1–3 of 4) and Vashya (0–1 of 2). Read that as a filter result, not as a recommendation. No koota scores zero for this pair, which is worth more than the total itself.
Does the pada change the result for Hasta and Revati?
No. Every one of the sixteen pada combinations returns the same total for Hasta and Revati. Neither star crosses a boundary between its padas, so all four sit in one rashi and one half of it, and no koota can move. 120 of the 351 pairs behave this way.
Do Hasta and Revati have Bhakoot dosha?
No. The two Moon signs never fall at one of the three forbidden distances — 6/8 Shadashtaka, 5/9 Navapanchaka or 2/12 Dwirdwadasha — in any of the sixteen pada combinations, so Bhakoot scores its full seven throughout. Bhakoot is all or nothing: there is no partial score.
Is it better for Hasta to be the bride or the groom?
On the arithmetic, Hasta on the bride's side scores higher — 25–28 against 24–27. Varna and Gana are the only kootas that can do that, and here Varna goes from 1 with Hasta as bride to 0 with Revati as bride. 314 of the 351 pairs move like this, so a calculator that takes two stars without asking who is the bride has picked a direction for you.

Run It On the Real Padas

The score is settled for Hasta and Revati, but the doshas, the seventh house and the running dasha are not — and those are what a chart is for.
