The entire Zodiac is a timeline of our evolution. Vedic Sidereal Aries is the birth of ego into conscious matter. Pisces is the liberation from the Maya (material illusion).

All of the Nakshatras from Aries to Cancer are the foundation to the Zodiac. They are in a state of ignorance and innocence. Starting with Ashwini. The horse that charges in without knowing anything of this world. It is a sudden spark of existence. Ending with Ashlesha, the coiled serpent (sleeping kundalini) at the base of the spine. Where our emotions and instincts take over to survive and seek security.

The Nakshatras from Leo to Scorpio are fueled by passion and desire. Giving our life purpose and meaning. Beginning with Magha, the royal throne room.

I’ve briefly written about the effect that Swati Nakshatra has on appearance in my blog. However, I’m continuing to notice similarities.

The appearance mostly has to do with Swati being a Rahu (North Lunar Node) Nakshatra.

Rahu has no limits or boundaries. It’s an illusionary planet that represents our desires and present destiny. Rahu takes us into the future, the unknown, and everything beyond what we believe is possible. It’s essentially amplifying what’s in our minds. That includes fear, obsession, imagination, and ambition.

Swati falls in Vedic Sidereal Libra. It can also be found in Scorpio if you use Western Tropical Astrology. Specifically, Swati is from 6 degrees 20 minutes to 20 degrees Libra. Libra is ruled by Venus.
