Sade Sati is the 7.5-year period when Saturn transits the 12th, 1st, and 2nd houses from the natal Moon — affecting each native roughly every 30 years. The three phases (each ~2.5 years) bring distinct lessons: 12th-house phase = release, spiritual reorientation; 1st-house phase = identity restructuring; 2nd-house phase = financial/family consolidation. Traditional astrology frames it as difficult; modern Vedic emphasizes the maturation work it forces.
