Revati रेवती) (The Wealthy) is the 27th nakshatra or lunar mansion in Vedic astrology and is associated with the star ζ Piscium. The symbol of Revati is a fish or a pair of fish, or a drum, and the Deity associated with it is Pushan, nourisher, the protective deity. The Lord of Revati is Budha (Mercury).
