How this calculator works

The VedaSpeak engine calculates the planets from your birth instant, the same way every time, with the sidereal zodiac and the Lahiri ayanamsha. No AI is involved in the calculation, and no person looks at your chart. Your local birth time is converted with the time-zone and daylight-saving rules that applied on that date.

Questions, answered.

What is Sade Sati?
Sade Sati (“seven and a half”) is the period in which Saturn moves through the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from your Moon sign, about two and a half years each: the first, second and third phases.
How are the dates calculated?
From the dates Saturn changes sidereal (Lahiri) sign, calculated by the VedaSpeak engine and counted from your Moon sign. Saturn sometimes turns back into the previous sign for a few months, so a phase can stop and start again.
Is Sade Sati bad?
It is a period, not a sentence. Tradition describes it as a time of pressure and responsibility, but nothing about it is certain, and this calculator does not predict events.
Do I need my birth time?
Usually not: Sade Sati is counted from the Moon sign, which the date and place often settle. If the Moon changed sign on your birth day, the dates are shown for both signs.
