Swati is the fifteenth nakshatra, in the middle of Libra. It carries the independence of wind — self-made movement, trade, diplomacy, and a bend-but-don't-break resilience. People under it tend to be balanced, independent and adaptable, bending with circumstances like a young shoot in the breeze and working steadily toward their aims through trade, diplomacy and self-reliance; free-spirited and self-correcting, though prone to restlessness and delay. Its lesson is to bend without breaking.
Presided over by Vayu, god of wind, with the young shoot swaying in the breeze as its symbol. Its Vimshottari lord is Rahu.
— Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra daśā adhyāya (Vimśottarī lords)
Span 6°40′–20°00′ Tula; lord Rahu in Venus's sign — the marketplace signature: exchange, negotiation, restless gain. Saturn's exaltation degree (20° Tula) sits at its very border with Vishakha.
