Swati Nakshatra, the fifteenth lunar mansion in Vedic astrology, is symbolized by a young sprout swaying in the wind, representing flexibility, independence, and adaptability. For babies born under Swati Nakshatra, traditional naming conventions recommend starting names with specific syllables corresponding to each pada (charan):
- Pada 1: “Ru”
- Pada 2: “Re”
- Pada 3: “Ro”
- Pada 4: “Ta”
If moon is not placed in the houses 6,8 and 12 one can use these letters to name the baby. However it is always a good idea to consult the astrologer before naming the baby. Every time you say the name the sound energy is activation of the naksharta and its outcomes.
General guidelines for naming the baby
- Do not give the baby a name that adds extra weight, responsibilities – Look at the meaning of the names from all perspectives. Like dhara, bhoomi. that shows they will have creative life, have to take care of so many , provide resources for many. That means mostly they will have resources however it also mesnsd have to take burden of so many people. The child can be still successful based on the horoscope however you are choosing extra responsibilities for them!
- Do not use the name if the meaning shows darkness- all the baby names that suggest night, nisha etc should be avoided as far as possible.
- name should be easy to pronounce for the kid- that is one opportunity to correct the afflicted mercury in the chart.
- Use common sense and discretion in naming the baby. People want to have uncommon names these days. You can do that but check the meaning and ask yourself if you want this life for the child and then go ahead.
