Free Sade Sati Check
Sade Sati is the ~7.5-year period when transiting Saturn moves through the 12th, 1st, and 2nd houses from your natal Moon. It is one of the most-asked-about transits in Vedic astrology — not inherently negative, but demanding.
The three stages of Sade Sati
- First stage — Saturn in the 12th from Moon. Expense, foreign themes, slow endings.
- Second (peak) stage — Saturn over the Moon itself. Mental weight, major restructuring, maturity gains.
- Third stage — Saturn in the 2nd from Moon. Finances, speech, family themes come under review.
Each stage lasts ~2.5 years. The full Sade Sati runs about 7.5 years and returns every ~27-30 years. Related transits — Kantaka Shani (4th from Moon) and Ashtama Shani (8th from Moon) — are also diagnosed.
