What you get

Is your Sade Sati running?

A clear yes or no for right now, based on where Shani (Saturn) sits from your Moon sign.

Your rashi and phase

See your Moon rashi and which of the three Sade Sati phases — rising, peak or setting — applies.

Start and end dates

The dates that frame your Sade Sati, so you know where you are in the seven-and-a-half-year span.

Sade Sati and its shorter cousin

Not everyone facing Saturn is in full Sade Sati — a shorter two-and-a-half-year influence called Dhaiya can run instead. Check the Shani Dhaiya calculator, see your Vimshottari Dasha, or read your personalised year ahead.

Frequently asked questions

What is Shani Sade Sati?

Shani Sade Sati is the roughly seven-and-a-half-year period when Saturn transits the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from your natal Moon. It is one of the most talked-about transits in Vedic astrology and is traditionally seen as a maturing, slowing-down chapter.

How do I know which rashi my Sade Sati is on?

Enter your date, time and place of birth. The calculator finds your Moon rashi and checks where Saturn is transiting from it, so you learn both your rashi and whether Sade Sati is currently running.

What are the three phases of Sade Sati?

The rising phase (Saturn in the 12th from the Moon), the peak phase (Saturn over the Moon sign) and the setting phase (Saturn in the 2nd from the Moon). Each has a slightly different flavour, and the calculator shows which one you are in.

Is the Shani Sade Sati calculator free?

Yes. Your Sade Sati status, phase and timeline are free with no sign-up. We do not store your birth details with the result.
