Revati Nakshatra
Revati is the 27th nakshatra, spanning 16°40′ Meena (Pisces) to 0°00′ Mesha (Aries), ruled by Mercury and presided over by Pushan. A birth in Revati begins a Mercury mahadasha of 17 years in the Vimshottari sequence — which is why the birth nakshatra, not the rashi, sets your whole dasha timeline.
