Its main symbol is a tiny grass leaf blown by Wind | Sword | Coral | Priest | Shoot of Plant. Wind itself is seen as symbol of Swati. Vayu or Pawan Dev or Wind god is the main presiding deity of Swati. Swati’s lord is Rahu. Sign lord is Venus. Swati nakshatra in astrology is one of the Tiryaka Mukhi Nakshatras (or the Nakshatras, which have their mouths curved).

Rahu is the north lunar node (ascending) and it along with Ketu is a “shadow planet” that causes eclipses. Rahu has no physical shape. It is an imaginary planet but considering the importance of Rahu in astrology, it has been allocated the status of the planet by Rishis. Rahu is known to confer malefic effects in general and is considered as a planet which induces laziness, delays, and hurdles in work. Rahu is known to reflect its shadow for 18 months in a zodiac. It can create confusion, depression and emotional imbalance if placed negatively in the horoscope.
