Saturn (Shani) : Effects and Remedies for 12 Houses

Saturn or “Shani” as per Vedic astrology represents discipline, law and order and maturity. The meaning of Shani means-slow moving which indicates that Saturn needs a longer time for completing a task. The slow transit of the planet offers two vital periods-The Sadhe Sati and the Dhaiya. All people go through Sadhe Sati and Dhaiya many times in their lives. Sadhe Sati lasts for Seven and Half years while Dhaiya lasts for two and half years.

Saturn is the most feared planet as it can bring hardships to the native and is considered a malefic planet in astrology. But if it is favourably placed it can create great wealth and fame to the native. Saturn's influence in a person’s natal charts is not always associated with the deprivation of material things and success, but it can cause a delay in success. It is important to note that Saturn is considered as a teacher who will punish the native for bad karma and reward the good deeds. It also bestows longevity and brings justice. A native with Shani or Saturn influence will have to work hard to earn the rewards.

• Saturn's conjunction, aspect or association with benefic planets like Venus, Jupiter or Mercury reduces its maleficence and confers good results during its periods.
• Saturn in debilitation or giving an evil aspect to the Ascendant, Sun or Moon becomes highly malefic. This can cause severe setbacks during its dasha.
