graha in nakshatra
Jupiter in Revati Nakshatra (Guru in रेवती)
346°40′ – 360°00′ sidereal · Pisces · star of Mercury
Revati, the 27th of the 27 nakshatras, covers 346°40′ – 360°00′ of the sidereal zodiac, wholly inside Pisces. Revati is ruled by Mercury, so Jupiter in Revati stands in Mercury’s star.
Jupiter counts Mercury an enemy, while Mercury counts Jupiter neutral. The table is not symmetric, so Jupiter in Revati has to be described from both sides, as it is here. The other two nakshatras Mercury rules, Ashlesha and Jyeshtha, put Jupiter under the same star lord.
Jupiter in Revati, Pada by Pada
| Pada | Arc | Jupiter by rashi | Navamsa | Jupiter by navamsa |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revati 1 | Pisces 16°40′ – 20°00′ | in its own sign | Sagittarius | in its own sign |
| Revati 2 | Pisces 20°00′ – 23°20′ | in its own sign | Capricorn | debilitated |
| Revati 3 | Pisces 23°20′ – 26°40′ | in its own sign | Aquarius | in a neutral sign |
| Revati 4 | Pisces 26°40′ – 30°00′ | in its own sign | Pisces (vargottama) (gandanta) | in its own sign |
By rashi, Jupiter is in its own sign in all four padas of Revati, because the whole nakshatra lies in Pisces. By navamsa the four padas fall in Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces. Jupiter’s strongest navamsas in Revati are padas 1 (Sagittarius, in its own sign) and 4 (Pisces, in its own sign), and its weakest is pada 2 (Capricorn, debilitated).
Revati pada 4 is vargottama — Pisces in rashi and in navamsa — so Jupiter there is in its own sign on both counts. Of the 108 padas only twelve are vargottama, one for each sign.
Revati pada 4 (Pisces 26°40′ – 30°00′) is gandanta: one of the six padas on the junction of a water sign and the fire sign after it, and Jupiter placed in that quarter of Revati sits on the junction itself.
Neither Jupiter’s deepest exaltation (Cancer) nor its deepest debilitation (Capricorn) degree falls inside Revati, and Jupiter’s moolatrikona lies outside it as well, so in Revati the rashi and navamsa verdicts above are the whole of Jupiter’s dignity.
When Jupiter Is in Revati, 2026–2028
Jupiter does not enter Revati at any point between 1 January 2026 and 1 January 2029. It stands in Punarvasu when the table opens and in Chitra when it closes, having visited 8 of the 27 nakshatras, and from Chitra Revati is 13 nakshatras further on. So Jupiter in Revati is, for these years, a birth-chart placement and not a transit anyone can wait for.
Revati as the Setting for Jupiter
In the nakshatra tables Revati’s deity is listed as Pushan and its symbol as fish; its gana is Deva, and the muhurta texts put it in the Mridu class (tender). Those belong to Revati whichever graha is in it, and they are read on the Revati page. What changes with Jupiter is everything above: the dignities in Pisces, the relation to Mercury, and the dates. None of it is a prediction for anyone born with Jupiter in Revati; the house it occupies and the dasha running decide what the placement does in a chart.
