Saturn (Shani) is often feared, but it is also the planet of discipline, karma and ultimate reward. Its transits, especially Sade Sati, the seven-and-a-half year period when Saturn moves through the 12th, 1st and 2nd houses from the Moon, are among the most discussed periods in Vedic astrology.
What is Sade Sati?
Sade Sati occurs when Saturn transits through three zodiac signs, the sign preceding your Moon sign, your own Moon sign, and the sign following it. Since Saturn spends approximately 2.5 years in each sign, the total period is roughly 7.5 years.
The Three Phases
The first phase often brings increased expenses or sleep disturbances. The second phase (Saturn on natal Moon) is considered the most intense, bringing challenges to health, career and relationships. The third phase can affect family harmony and finances before gradually easing.
