While Saturn is in Aries (Mesha) (1 Jan 2029 – 8 Aug 2029)
| Aries (Mesha) 1st house from Aries | Challenging Saturn in your own sign (the peak of Sade Sati) asks for discipline and patience. Health, workload and responsibilities need steady attention. |
| Taurus (Vrishabha) 12th house from Taurus | Challenging Saturn in your twelfth house begins Sade Sati — expenses, sleep and isolation need care. Plan ahead and simplify. |
| Gemini (Mithuna) 11th house from Gemini | Favourable Saturn in your eleventh house is a rewarding period — steady gains, recognition and long-term goals met. |
