Saturn transit
Sade Sati — which moon signs Saturn is crossing now
Saturn is in Pisces today, so Sade Sati is running for Aries, Aquarius and Pisces — and Shani Dhaiya for Leo and Sagittarius.
Sade Sati is the seven-and-a-half years in which Saturn crosses the sign before your moon sign, your moon sign itself, and the sign after it. It is keyed to the Moon, not the Sun, so a sun-sign answer is answering a different question.

If you do not know your moon sign
It needs your date, time and place of birth — the Moon moves through a sign in about two and a quarter days, so a date alone is not enough. Two free tools produce it: the free Kundli names the Moon sign alongside the Lagna, and the nakshatra calculator names it with the nakshatra and pada.
Your moon sign is very often not your sun sign. Reading this page against a sun sign will give you the wrong answer roughly eleven times in twelve.
What this page does and does not claim
Sade Sati is a traditional framework. It is read as a period of pressure, consolidation and slow restructuring — not as a forecast of specific misfortune, and not as a verdict on seven and a half years of anybody's life. This page reports where Saturn is; the interpretation is the tradition's, and it is stated as the tradition's.
It is also the single most common lever for fear-based selling in this field. Nothing here needs an urgent purchase, and nobody should be pressured into one by a transit date. The Sade Sati guide covers what the classical texts actually say, including the parts that are commonly left out, and Shani Gochar lists Saturn's ingress dates on their own.
Transit guidance here is a traditional framework for reflection and planning, not medical, legal or financial advice. Nothing on this page predicts an event, and no timing is a reason to delay medical care.
Common questions
Which moon signs are in Sade Sati right now?
Saturn is in Pisces today, so Sade Sati is running for Aries, Aquarius and Pisces — and Shani Dhaiya for Leo and Sagittarius.
What are the three phases of Sade Sati?
Saturn crosses the sign before your moon sign (rising), then your moon sign itself (peak), then the sign after it (setting). Saturn spends roughly two and a half years in a sign, which is where the seven and a half years comes from. The phases above are Saturn's real ingress dates, not the average.
Why is my Sade Sati split into more than three rows?
Because Saturn turns retrograde every year and can slip back into the sign it just left. That is a real re-entry, so it is listed as its own window rather than folded into one tidy block — folding it would print a window Saturn was not continuously inside.
Does Sade Sati mean something bad will happen?
No. It is a traditional framework describing a period read as demanding and restructuring, and this page reports where Saturn actually is — it does not predict events. Anyone using it to sell you an urgent remedy is doing something the tradition does not require.
I do not know my moon sign.
It is the sign the Moon occupied at your birth, which needs your date, time and place — it is not your sun sign. The free Kundli calculates it, and the nakshatra calculator names it from your birth details alone.
