Sade Sati – the whole argument on this subject, in a way, looks like Astrological Terrorism without any rationale or logic. This is something which scares millions of people unnecessarily and affects the psyche of people and terribly demotivates them. What people have understood is when Saturn transits one sign before the Moon and over the Moon sign, and one sign next to the Moon sign, that native is purported to be under the influence of inimical effects. Saturn transits in one sign for approximately 2.5 years. Therefore, 2.5 years X 3 signs = 7.5 years. Now, please see the truth of it without any knowledge of Astrology! There are 12 Zodiac signs and Saturn will remain for 2.5 years in one sign - which means, one round of Saturn across the Zodiac takes 30 years.

If a man survives, let us say for 65 years, depending upon where Saturn is positioned at the time of birth, normally there will be a minimum of 3 rounds of Saturn. This means that the that person would have 3 Sade Satis in his life which is equal to 22.5 years. Has the life gone for a toss for 22.5 years? Please stretch your imagination!

I would like to draw your attention about Saturn transiting in the 5th house is termed ‘Panchama Shani’ and in the 8th house is termed ‘Ashtama Shani’ and both are termed as detrimental to the native. Therefore, add another 5 years and in rounds of Saturn, it would amount to 15 years. Don’t you think that it is another psychological explosion for anyone!

This is yet another psychological bomb of destruction of the morale of people! When Jupiter transits in 2, 5, 7, 9 and 11th house (that is 5 houses) from the Moon sign, the person is supposed to be enjoying Gurubala. Jupiter’s transit in one house normally lasts for about one year, which means it goes one round in the Zodiac once in 12 years (also called one Paryaya).

The same example as in the case of Sade Sati described above – if a man survives for 65 years, Jupiter would have gone circled the Zodiac 5 times. This means, Guru Bala will be effective only when it is transiting in the houses 2, 5, 7, 9 and 11 while in other houses Guru or Jupiter is unfavourable. In effect, a person who survives for 65 years will lack Guru Bala for 35 years in his life time.

Therefore, putting the two together, that is, Sade Sati and Gurubala theory, 22.5 + 35 = 57.5 years of a man’s life is gone with ill effects or is highly undesirable. Is there anyone who can agree to this logic which means the entire life is written off! Do you believe this?

this is another illogical mass hypnotism illusionary path. Moon sign is nothing but the Zodiac sign where Moon is posited at birth. Moon takes anywhere between 48 hours to 60 hours, with 2 days to 2.5 days in one sign. Therefore, babies born between 2 days to 2.5 days will logically have the same Moon sign. Is it true that all those babies future is the same? How can you talk about the significance of Moon sign, universally, and apply Sade Sati and Gurubala features? Therefore, the theory of Sade Sati and Gurubala falls flat. Then what is important in the chart? Just move on ….

The technical and correct definition or meaning of this is really exciting. Lagna is unique for every individual. Lagna is nothing but an assumption that there is an imaginary point ever rising in the East. God’s creation is incredible. The human engineering by the Creator is beyond our intellect. The Creator creates each one of us in a unique way although we look similar in many ways, barring complexion, physique etc. Application of Sade Sati, Gurubala etc., should never be generalized at all merely based on Moon sign or Sun sign or other parameters.
