Born with the Moon in Swati

In Vedic astrology, the mansion the Moon was in when you were born is your birth star. It also sets where your life’s chapters (dashas) begin: a life born under Swati begins in a Rahu chapter.

A chapter of ambition: big leaps, new worlds and restless hunger.

A whole Rahu chapter lasts 18 years. You arrive partway through it, depending on how far the Moon had travelled through Swati.

Nakshatras are counted in the sidereal zodiac, which follows the stars. It sits about 24° behind the tropical zodiac most Western horoscopes use, so your Moon’s Western sign and its Vedic sign can differ.
