one answer
Of the eight kootas, 3 leave something on the table for this pair and 5 do not. Bhakoot is the largest at 0 of 7 — Pisces and Cancer — 9/5. The complete ones are Varna, Vashya, Tara, Gana and Nadi, which is 20 of the 36 guna earned before any deduction is applied.
Worth stating because most matching sites imply otherwise: for Pushya and Revati the padas change nothing. Sixteen combinations, one answer. The exact minute of birth still decides plenty in a chart — it just does not decide this.
Koota by Koota
Pada 1 on each side, and what every koota is reading for Pushya with Revati. Varna and Gana are the two directional tests, which is why each name gets a column: here neither one differs, so the two columns agree.
| Koota | Pushya bride | Revati bride | What it reads |
|---|---|---|---|
| Varna / 1 | 1 | 1 | Revati: Brahmin · Pushya: Brahmin |
| Vashya / 2 | 2 | 2 | Revati: Jalachar · Pushya: Jalachar |
| Tara / 3 | 3 | 3 | Counting from Pushya: Sampat (2) · from Revati: Ati-Mitra (9) |
| Yoni / 4 | 1–3 | 1–3 | Revati: Elephant · Pushya: Sheep |
| Graha Maitri / 5 | 4 | 4 | Revati: Jupiter · Pushya: Moon |
| Gana / 6 | 6 | 6 | Revati: Deva · Pushya: Deva |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 0 | 0 | Pisces and Cancer — 9/5 |
| Nadi / 8 | 8 | 8 | Revati: Antya (Kapha) · Pushya: Madhya (Pitta) |
| Total / 36 | 25–27 | 25–27 | Good |
- Bhakoot, 0 of 7 — Pisces and Cancer — 9/5. One of the three forbidden distances, and Bhakoot is all or nothing.
- Graha Maitri, 4 of 5 — Revati: Jupiter · Pushya: Moon. Five guna ride on how the two sign lords regard each other, more than any other single test.
- Yoni, 1–3 of 4 — Revati: Elephant · Pushya: Sheep. Not the same animal, not a hostile pair, so the graded middle.
Half-guna figures are exact rather than rounded. Each koota’s rule is set out in full on Pushya’s table and Revati’s.
All Sixteen Pada Combinations
Pushya runs Cancer 3°20′ – 16°40′ 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 93°20′ and 120°00′ apart. Every cell below holds two totals: Pushya as bride first, Revati as bride second. All sixteen read alike, so the padas can be left out of this one.
| Pushya ↓ / Revati → | Pada 1Pisces | Pada 2Pisces | Pada 3Pisces | Pada 4Pisces |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pada 1Cancer | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 |
| Pada 2Cancer | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 |
| Pada 3Cancer | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 |
| Pada 4Cancer | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 | 25 / 25 |
Strict reading of the two disputed kootas throughout. The generous reading of Yoni and Vashya adds 2 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
The two heavy kootas, checked with their cancellations. Neither gives a partial score, so each is worth 8 and 7 guna outright or nothing at all.
Nadi Koota — 8 of 8
Pushya is Madhya (Pitta) 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 — 0 of 7 at pada 1
In every pada combination, the two Moon signs stand at one of the three forbidden distances and Bhakoot gives nothing. Neither cancellation is available — the sign lords are Moon and Jupiter, neither the same planet nor mutual friends.
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 Pushya 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 Pushya to Revati is 20. The two counts always add to 29, so a Mahendra pair holds whichever way round the match is made.
- Stri-Dirgha — satisfied one way. This one is directional in earnest: 20 from Pushya and 9 from Revati, against a threshold sources give as seven or as nine. It holds with Pushya as the bride and not with Revati.
Neither test touches the 36. Muhurta nature is a different question again — Pushya 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 6th among Pushya's 27 possible partners and Pushya 5th among Revati's, both on the pada-1 figures those two tables print.
In Pushya’s table
6th of 27
Revati scores 25 there, level with 1 other partner. Pushya’s 27 partners run from 11.5 to 28.5 with a median of 19.5, so this one sits above the middle of what Pushya can reach — all 27 rows.
In Revati’s table
5th of 27
Pushya 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 Pushya 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 Pushya page and the Revati page.
