Saturn's Saadhe Saati is one of most discussed and argued astrological phenomenon. It means a period of 7 &1/2 years in which Saturn moves through three signs , the moon sign, one before and one after .

The effect of Saturn will also come when it transit Lagna (Ascendant) and Arudha Lagna (AL).

Most astrologers agree that Saturn's Saadhe Saati is a very important period in one's life. It touches all the areas of your life significantly.

Kantaka Shani

Kantaka means Thorn and Kantaka Sani occurs when during its transit Saturn has special aspect on the 10H (as reckoned from Lagna, AL or Moon) or conjoins it. Since special aspects of Saturn are on the 3rd and 10H from where it is stationed, the transit of Saturn should be in the 1st, 8th or 10th house from the lagna, AL or natal Moon.

Saturn becomes a terrible thorn and the journey of life becomes very painful. The fastest and most competent will also start limping in their work and the native can lose his job, business may shut down and there will be considerable work related tensions.
