The transit period of Saturn through starting from 12^th then 1^st and finally 2^nd House from Natal Moon is known as Sadhe-Sati period and is of 7ⁱ⁄₂ years and 20 days.

The 2 ½ years transiting period of Saturn through one Sign is also known as Dhaiya.

It is believed that Sadhe Sati period is in one’s life is a period is inauspicious full of problems and sorrows in other words period of torture by Saturn planet; but it is practically observed and seen it is a myth but it’s not so. According to classical texts this period gives its results depending on Saturn’s position in Lagan Kundali, Natal Moon chart, Nakshatras, and placements of Signs and other Planets in different Houses (Bhavs), depending upon positions of other factors. Finally one must keep in mind that Saturn is a planet of discipline; it does justice depending upon your Karmas. If one is disciplined and go by the laws of nature – need not to worry much.
