Introduction:

Saturn is the most royal planet in the solar system. It represents discipline, law, order, values, and karma. It is the most feared planet. But in reality, there is nothing to be afraid of. Saturn is a karmic planet. It is a separative planet too. Saturn loves solitude and solitude leads to self-growth and development. The difference between Jupiter and Saturn is the former does benefit the houses where its vision rests. But Saturn fetches in a strong time of test depending upon its vision in the third, seventh, and ninth houses of an individual’s natal chart. On the other hand, the difference between Mars and Saturn is the former loves to undertake risks, unlike the latter one. In other words, Saturn gives results on the basis of one’s deeds in this world!

The impact of Saturn in the various houses of the natal chart:

Saturn in the first house makes the individual reserved and serious in the various spheres of life. The individual is organized and has a lot of energy. But if the planet is debilitated, the individual may have to undergo tremendous hardships in the early years. It is worth mentioning that Saturn is powerless in Aries ( the house of Mars) and exalted in Libra ( the house of Venus). In the second house, the planet may limit the financial growth or accumulation of money as we know the second house is the house of ‘Dhanabhav’. Saturn gives an extremely good result in the third house ( known as the Upachay house). The individual has excellent communication skills. However, it is to be taken into consideration that it doesn’t come in touch with any malefic planet. Moreover, Saturn in the fourth house makes an individual lover of peace and harmony.

Besides, the health of the mother is to be cared for as she ages. In fact, the individual’s mother is disciplined, unbiased, and loyal by nature. The fifth house deals with children and higher studies. In both these aspects, Saturn provides fabulous results. It is to be noted that Saturn provides desirable results in the higher studies and not essentially at the basic level during the intense span of Sare sati. Saturn might put one in the grip of diseases, legal issues, and other undesirable occurrences in the sixth house, but other factors should also be considered. The seventh house represents spouses, married life, and employment. Good results are here. But there should not be any hurry, a proper plan and its subsequent execution are absolutely essential here. The eighth house is the house of death and destruction.

Saturn in the eighth house cripples a person. Saturn doesn’t cause death but teaches the toughest lessons of life. The theory was propounded by Khana, the first female astrologer of her time. The planet, if rules the ninth house ensured growth and support but hard work matters a lot. It gives everything but in a gradual manner. And once it gives you, you don’t have to look back! The tenth house is the house of Karma. Good placement can make one a good engineer or any other reputed technical professional. But the reverse can make one a rolling stone that never gathers moss! The eleventh house is the house of earning. Sources mature and give good results. But in the twelfth house, it ensures financial loss, hospitalisation, laziness, and foreign travel. Thus this section is very important as the transit may give any one of it to purify the heart and soul.

Conclusion :

Work and results complement each other. And the result shapes the destiny of tomorrow. Saturn determines the whole matter. He is not cruel nor oppressive by nature. But surely balances both ends before yielding any result. So, we all must focus on our work, no matter how simple or tough it is! After all, karma supported by luck gives the result!!

General Introduction on Saturn:

Saturn is the sixth planet of our utopian solar system. A cold planet decked up with cold white rings. Yet the planet carries a paramount importance in the world of astrology. The significance cannot be denied or ignored or overlooked in the wildest of one’s dreams!

The background of Saturn

Saturn is the son of Surya and Chaya. He is often called Chaya Putra. However, there is a continuous conflict between the father and his powerful son, much to the dismay of the poor mortals. The world of Saturn is enormous and his position in one’s natal chart matters to a great extent while analysing by an expert! Saturn is a natural malefic. This is completely a prejudice as Saturn is always there to shower his blessings on us, banking on our deeds and actions!

The Span of Saturn in each house. His Friendly Houses. The result in Various Combinations:

The planet stays in a house for a span of two and a half years. But it is to be noted that this planet of justice doesn’t give the desired result in every single house it occupies in the natal chart. There are twelve zodiac signs, starting from Aries, the first house to Pisces, the twelfth house of the natural zodiac. Saturn is powerless in Aries as it is the exalted house of Sun. As they are opposite to one another and share a sort of animosity! In Taurus, Gemini, Virgo, Libra ( the exalted house) of Saturn gives unbelievable good results, provided the planet doesn’t conjugate with its enemies like Mars and Ketu.

In Aquarius and Capricorn , Saturn gives good results. They are its own houses. And Sagittarius and Pisces are its neutral houses. They are Jupiter’s houses. But a thing to note that here Saturn limits everything and doesn’t essentially allow you to be a free bird! Of this entire discourse, it is also important to focus on the exceptions. The combination of Saturn and Sun in friendly zodiacs like Virgo, Gemini, Sagittarius and Pisces proves to be bearing a huge potential for the boy or girl.

This Saturn forms the Raj Yoga if it conjugates with Venus in Libra in appropriate star and degree. The planet ensures a high level of creativity if it combines with moon, though this yoga is called ‘Vish Yoga’. The reason is obvious. Mental anxiety and mother’s poor health are the prime results of this combination. Similarly Saturn and Rahu together is called as Shrapit Yog ( The Cursed Combination) , but in reality it ensures a high level of courage and confidence even in the dire situation. Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu has this combination in her natal chart.

The Most Discussed Factor on Saturn : Sade Sati : A View

However, the most concerned aspect of Saturn is Sade Sati. The expression frightens everyone. But believe it or not, it is a huge blessing at times, depending on the placement in your Lagna Chart and of course your Karma. During this particular time, the central zodiac and the other two houses placed on either sides undergo ‘Sade Sati’ – the time of test and tolerance! Pains, sufferings, loss of money, energy and above all kith and kin become the order of the day. But the magnitude depends on the position of Saturn in the natal chart, its conjugation, ruling stars, degrees and vision.

Saturn looks at the third, seventh and tenth house from where it is placed. However, the ‘God of Justice’ plays a pivotal role in shaping the destiny. There are numerous examples where ‘Sade Sati ‘ has resulted in huge success, offered high positions, enhanced the bank balance and spread popularity far and wide. It is worth mentioning people like Swami Vivekananda and Indira Gandhi reached the dizzy height of triumph and victory during this phase of seven and a half years.

Conclusion:

Astrologically Saturn conjugates with moon to spawn ‘Vish Yog’. Saturn once punished moon for his ill acts and motives against his sister Yami. And warned moon, despite the fact that moon is always protected by Shiva, the creator of Shani Maharaj! Hence Saturn or Shani always keeps a hawk eyed vigil on moon! Ipso facto there is not a single creature who can shun the iron clutches of Saturn. But the ‘Father’ is always with us, takes care of every single need, loves us, punishes us and above all teaches the morals and values of our life! Any explanation?
