Little beyond this native's reach

Revati Nakshatra

Revati is ruled by Lord Pushan, whose main responsibility is to guide us after we have departed our bodies. He escorts us on our next journey, whether we return to this creation in a different role or move towards salvation. He ensures that the soul's journey to its next chapter is smooth, linking the entire navigation sector to Revati.

Lord Pushan is known to understand the different paths leading to different futures and guides souls accordingly. While we are alive, he continues guiding us so that our journey progresses and we transcend spiritually, moving away from materialism and the sensual side of life.

A quotation from the Bhagavad Gita roughly says that the senses naturally become attached to sensual objects. We like and dislike these objects, but the warning is not to become attached to sensual pleasures, because they can defeat the soul's purpose and make us believe that life is only about material enjoyment. I believe this wisdom comes from Lord Pushan.

He guides us through life experience or appears in our lives in the form of a teacher. Teachers, mentors, guides, educators and trainers who help us see the right path are therefore linked to Revati, as are religious and spiritual leaders. Lord Pushan guides us not only spiritually but also towards righteousness and truthfulness, while ensuring that the journey is safe.

Jupiter in Revati

When Jupiter is in Revati, I think you would guide society through your knowledge and philosophical point of view. You would be spiritually inclined and keen to understand religious and spiritual scriptures. This combination also belongs to teachers, mentors, guides and educators. Whether teaching languages, business or spirituality, the native has to play that role in society.

Paramahansa Yogananda had Jupiter in Revati. The native would have a strong sense of right and wrong and could share that wisdom and understanding effectively with the world. The person could be an expert at bringing change to people's lives.

The native could work in a de-addiction centre, helping people move away from sensual pleasures. They would be very fond of travel and exploration and encounter many opportunities for growth and learning, including through higher education. The native might gain admission to the best institutes and find the best teachers in life. Their ability to find a solution to any problem would be driven by the inherent optimism of Jupiter and Revati coming together.

The person may think, ‘I'll be able to find a solution. I'll also be able to overcome this difficulty.’ Someone fighting cancer, for example, may believe, ‘No, I'll be able to recover.’ That inherent optimism can pave the way for others who are suffering similarly.

There is a lot to like about this position. In my view, nothing is beyond the native's capabilities.
