Freedom with a fence

Swati Nakshatra

Swati, as per mythology, is ruled by Lord Vayu. Lord Vayu is the lord of the wind, and just like the wind which is ever flowing, this Nakshatra is also about that. The person—I'm referring to the Swati native—is likely to be on the go, on a mental and a physical plane. Lord Vayu is known to be the light of the atmosphere.

Whenever there's a thunderstorm we witness the light first. That is an example I'm sharing with you which describes the swiftness of Lord Vayu, the quickness of Lord Vayu. Wherever Lord Vayu travels, he is accompanied by thunder which is symbolic of the power and strength linked to Lord Vayu. This Nakshatra is known to possess the power to scatter like the wind everywhere, which is symbolic of the Swati native's influence in the society. Not only is Lord Vayu on the go, it's also known for his power and influence.

I'd like to share an interesting example. In the Ramayana, Hanuman is known to be the spiritual son of Lord Vayu. He was known for his strength. Similarly in the Mahabharata, Lord Bhima is known to be the spiritual son of Lord Vayu. This symbolizes the power, the strength, the thunder that is accompanied by the wind. That is what Lord Vayu is all about. The Swati native is likely to be a freedom lover, an explorer of some kind.

Saturn in Swati

Saturn in Swati is an interesting position as we are now combining freedom and exploration with boundaries. Saturn representing the latter. Here the native can be a caretaker of the ones who are freedom lovers. A great example is looking after individuals who arrive in a foreign country seeking asylum, escaping some violence for example in their home country.

The ones who are looking after such individuals or even fighting for such individuals I believe have Saturn in Swati. Human rights lawyers, you are protecting the freedom of others. Even you yourself may not enjoy the same freedom. If you are a lawyer, a human rights lawyer, you have a procedure to follow that is directly linked to Saturn.

Saturn in Swati can lead to you being a long-term researcher and you'd be very persistent in your research. Every change that you plan in your life for example a trip to a foreign country can be met with some delay, particularly if you are going through Saturn Dasha. The good news here is unwelcome changes in our life would also be delayed. You might find yourself being given time like an eviction notice handed to you by your landlord if you're renting a property.

You'll still have time to slowly transition from one place to the other. In a way I find Saturn Swati to be a strong position. Lastly you can be a follower of an ancient science or a tradition which might be uncommon or you might serve the society through an ancient science in a new way for example with the use of technology like practicing astrology online. Altogether I find Saturn in Swati to be a strong position.

Also Saturn and Rahu share a friendly relationship.
