Uttara Ashadha and Revati nakshatra matching
20.5–23.5 of 36 with Uttara Ashadha as bride, 19.5–22.5 with Revati as bride — then computed again for all sixteen pada combinations.

Across all padas
18.5–20.5
spread of 2
Of the eight kootas, 5 leave something on the table for this pair and 3 do not. Nadi is the largest at 0 of 8 — Revati: Antya (Kapha) · Uttara Ashadha: Antya (Kapha). The complete ones are Varna, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot, which is 13 of the 36 guna earned before any deduction is applied.
Two birth stars are not enough for this pair. Uttara Ashadha runs from Sagittarius into Capricorn after pada 1, and Varna, Vashya, Graha Maitri and Bhakoot are all read from the Moon rashi rather than from the star, which puts 15 of the 36 guna on that boundary — so the total follows, anywhere from 18.5 to 20.5 of 36 depending on the padas. At 2 guna the swing sits on the median of 2, in a range reaching 14 at its widest.
Koota by Koota
Pada 1 on each side, and what every koota is reading for Uttara Ashadha with Revati. Varna and Gana are the two directional tests, which is why each name gets a column: Varna differs between them.
| Koota | Uttara Ashadha bride | Revati bride | What it reads |
|---|---|---|---|
| Varna / 1 | 1 | 0 | Revati: Brahmin · Uttara Ashadha: Kshatriya |
| Vashya / 2 | 0–1 | 0–1 | Revati: Jalachar · Uttara Ashadha: Chatushpada |
| Tara / 3 | 1.5 | 1.5 | Counting from Uttara Ashadha: Vadha (7) · from Revati: Kshema (4) |
| Yoni / 4 | 1–3 | 1–3 | Revati: Elephant · Uttara Ashadha: Mongoose |
| Graha Maitri / 5 | 5 | 5 | Revati: Jupiter · Uttara Ashadha: Jupiter |
| Gana / 6 | 5 | 5 | Revati: Deva · Uttara Ashadha: Manushya |
| Bhakoot / 7 | 7 | 7 | Pisces and Sagittarius — 4/10 |
| Nadi / 8 | 0 | 0 | Revati: Antya (Kapha) · Uttara Ashadha: Antya (Kapha) |
| Total / 36 | 20.5–23.5 | 19.5–22.5 | Acceptable |
- Nadi, 0 of 8 — Revati: Antya (Kapha) · Uttara Ashadha: Antya (Kapha). The heaviest koota in the system, all or nothing.
- Tara, 1.5 of 3 — Counting from Uttara Ashadha: Vadha (7) · from Revati: Kshema (4). One count of the two is inauspicious and the other is not, which halves the koota.
- Gana, 5 of 6 — Revati: Deva · Uttara Ashadha: Manushya. Deva with Manushya, five of six either way round — the mildest of the mixed results.
- Yoni, 1–3 of 4 — Revati: Elephant · Uttara Ashadha: Mongoose. Not the same animal, not a hostile pair, so the graded middle.
- Vashya, 0–1 of 2 — Revati: Jalachar · Uttara Ashadha: Chatushpada. 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 Uttara Ashadha’s table and Revati’s.
All Sixteen Pada Combinations
Uttara Ashadha runs Sagittarius 26°40′ – Capricorn 10°00′ 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 66°40′ and 93°20′ apart. Every cell below holds two totals: Uttara Ashadha as bride first, Revati as bride second. The cells are not all the same, which is the point of printing them — 17.5 at the lowest and 20.5 at the highest.
| Uttara Ashadha ↓ / Revati → | Pada 1Pisces | Pada 2Pisces | Pada 3Pisces | Pada 4Pisces |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pada 1Sagittarius | 20.5 / 19.5 | 20.5 / 19.5 | 20.5 / 19.5 | 20.5 / 19.5 |
| Pada 2Capricorn | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 |
| Pada 3Capricorn | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 |
| Pada 4Capricorn | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 | 18.5 / 17.5 |
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
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 — 0 of 8
Uttara Ashadha and Revati are both Antya (Kapha), so the plain rule gives nothing. The cancellation applies: Sagittarius and Pisces are both ruled by Jupiter, which the texts hold voids Nadi dosha outright. Only 5 of the 108 same-nadi pairs qualify, so this is the uncommon case.
Bhakoot Koota — 7 of 7 at pada 1
Pisces and Sagittarius — 4/10 — 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. Remedial practice for Nadi dosha is set out on the Nadi dosha page.
Two Tests Outside the 36
The South Indian reckoning runs to ten kootas, and two of the extras are counts between Uttara Ashadha and Revati alone — so they can be given here and checked by hand.
- Mahendra — present. Mahendra wants every third star from the fourth — 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25 — and Uttara Ashadha to Revati is 7. 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: 7 from Uttara Ashadha and 22 from Revati, against a threshold sources give as seven or as nine. It holds with Revati as the bride and not with Uttara Ashadha.
Neither test touches the 36. Muhurta nature is a different question again — Uttara Ashadha is Dhruva / Sthira (fixed), 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: 20.5 of 36 puts Revati 16th among Uttara Ashadha's 27 possible partners and Uttara Ashadha 16th among Revati's, both on the pada-1 figures those two tables print.
In Uttara Ashadha’s table
16th of 27
Revati scores 20.5 there, level with 1 other partner. Uttara Ashadha’s 27 partners run from 9.5 to 31 with a median of 22, so this one sits below the middle of what Uttara Ashadha can reach — all 27 rows.
In Revati’s table
16th of 27
Uttara Ashadha scores 20.5 there outright. Revati’s 27 partners run from 5 to 32 with a median of 21.5, so this one sits below the middle of what Revati can reach — all 27 rows.
What This Total Is Not
The whole of Ashtakoot for Uttara Ashadha 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 acceptable is a starting point for a conversation and not the end of one.
Written rather than computed, and worth the longer read: what a birth date alone can and cannot settle and how to check compatibility in a kundli. The full profiles of the two stars — deities, symbols, temperament, the syllables used for naming — are on the Uttara Ashadha page and the Revati page.
