14.1
Introduction
14.1.1
Saturn, Shani, being ruler of Karmas, longevity & `Kaal (time)’ controls one’s destiny. He
is the most dreaded planet signifying sorrows, miseries, sufferings, obstacles,
impediments, chronic diseases, deformities, delays, laziness, depression,
poverty and restrictions among others. As a subdue, it destroys one’s pride,
arrogance and ego subjecting to problems mentioned above. But he is a great
friend of mankind & masses, strict disciplinarian, hard task master, asking
for self-control, restrain, sacrifice, patience, solitude, austerity &
spirituality. He loves justice, perfection, concentration, renunciation of
desires & cravings and a great fighter against evil & baser instincts.
Saturn’s purpose by transit is to pressurize the native to fix what is being
long neglected, to restore order to whatever has become chaotic/ out of
control, and to reclaim what is intrinsically valuable.
14.1.2
Saturn is strong in 7th house, getting directional strength, in
Libra where it is exalted (deep, exaltation at 20 degree), and for Taurus/
Libra Ascendant/ Moon sign where he is Yogkaraka. He is also strong at the end
of a sign, during dark half of Moon and during his week-day. The house that
Saturn transits, indicates the part of one’s life that is being examined and
represents the areas of tension in one’s life that require close attention. The
planets that Saturn transits over, represents the energy that are being
challenged and the behavior patterns under examination. Saturn teaches natives
about the values of moderation, caution & hard work. Being slowest in
motion it is also called Mand and is
karaka of anything slow-be it disease or a long stay in office. It may cause
delay in any/ every aspect of life, it is associated, but does not deny their
fruits.
14.2 Movements of Slow Moving Planets
14.2.1
Being a slow moving planet, Saturn takes about 2-1/2 years to transit over a
sign and about 30 years to cover one round of the zodiac. On 15th
Nov 2011, it has entered Libra (3rd quarter of Chitra Nakshtra),
turns retrograde on 8th Feb 2012 and enters 2nd quarter
of Chitra (Virgo) on 16 May 2012. Saturn becomes direct on 26 Jun 2012 and
re-enters Chitra 3rd quarter on 4 Aug 2012, enters Swati Nakshtra on
11 Oct 2012. He again becomes retrograde on 19 Feb 2013, gets direct motion on
9 July 2013, all in Swati Nakshtra. Saturn enters Vishakha Nakshtra on 4 Nov
2003 and leaves 3rd quarter of Vishakha (Libra) on 2 Nov 2014.
Durinig his stay in Libra, Saturn is exalted and is not bothered about Vedha by
Sun or of combustion as Libra is sign of debilitation for Sun.
