What a Swati Moon-day is like
Swati is a deva nakshatra — in panchang terms an auspicious, light day, classically favoured for beginnings, travel, ceremonies, and anything you want to start on a harmonious note. Its temperament runs to independence, balance, flexibility, under the rulership of Rahu.
