Igbo African Astrology: Eneke Agwu by Sirius Ugo Art

Agwu as Eneke (Swift bird) is a representation of the Aquarius constellation in Igbo spirituality. As the bird that spends more time on air than any other bird, Eneke is the perfect embodiment of the Aquarius aloof nature. This bird created harmony with the wind. Spending more time on flight is a major survival tactics for this bird. Someone that was born during the time of Aquarius is identified as Nwa Eneke Agwu, which is a child with the principles of Eneke. In some other Igbo dialects, Eneke is pronounced as Eleke. In various Igbo folktales, the Swift is called Eneke Nti Oba. This Ugo Art shows Eneke magically pouring celestial water with the Igbo vessel known as Udu.
