Nakṣatra 15 of 27

Svātī · स्वाती

The lunar mansion 6°40′ – 20°00′ Tula of the sidereal zodiac — its presiding deity as the Garuḍa Purāṇa states it, its Vimśottarī lord as the engine computes it, and the Purāṇic passages that actually name it. Cited context; never a forecast.

The four pādas of Svātī

Each nakṣatra spans 13°20′, divided into four quarters of 3°20′. A pāda’s navāṃśa (the ninth division, D9) is what a chart reading leans on when the birth time is known — computed here, not asserted.

Standard aṣṭakūṭa tradition (BPHS-derived), uniform across classical practice — not from this project's Purāṇic corpus, and not cited as if it were.

Where the Purāṇas name Svātī

Verbatim passages from this project’s own tagged astrology corpus — saṁhitā, muhūrta and calendrical contexts that mention the star. Supplementary context from the texts, not personality claims or predictions.
