In electional astrology, Aśvinī is classified as a small constellation, meaning that it is believed to be advantageous to begin works of a precise or delicate nature while the moon is in Aśvinī. Aśvinī is ruled by the Aśvin-s, the heavenly twins who served as physicians to the gods. Personified, Aśvinī is considered to be the wife of the Aśvinī Kumara-s.
