Saturn's 7½-year passage

Sade Sati Tracker — live status for every Moon sign

Sade Sati ("seven and a half") is Saturn's slow transit across the 12th, 1st, and 2nd signs from your natal Moon — roughly 7½ years that classical Jyotish treats as a season of pruning: heavier duties, cleaner priorities. It is counted from your Moon sign, not your Sun sign. Saturn is currently in Pisces.

The rising phase (Saturn 12th from the Moon)

Saturn moves through the sign behind your Moon. Expenses, sleep, and background worries tend to rise first — the work of this phase is quietly closing what is already finished.

The peak phase (Saturn over the Moon)

Saturn crosses your Moon sign itself. Responsibilities press closest to home and heart now; the classical counsel is routine, humility, and patience — build slowly and rest properly.

The setting phase (Saturn 2nd from the Moon)

Saturn moves through the sign after your Moon, touching finances, family, and speech. Pressure eases into consolidation — what survived the passage is yours to keep.
