Svātī - The Independent One

Svātī means ‘independent one' and this sign shows a need to carve your own path in life. One of its symbols is a young sprout blowing in the wind, showing a need to adapt to new circumstances, to go against the grain. It is ruled by the god of the breath and the life-force. Another of its symbols is a sword, representing the need to break away from the herd. This sign has a heightened sensitivity and artistic nature.

When the Moon transits Svātī, it's a good day for treating disease, business, and study.
