Sade Sati
The word ‘Sade Sati’ is a Sanskrit word where ‘Sade’ means half and ‘Sati’ means the number ‘seven’. Thus, Sade Sati is a phase according to Indian astrology that lasts for a period of 7 1⁄2 years in the life of an individual. In astrology, Lord Shani (Saturn) is considered as the God of justice. Saturn influences the 12 houses in the horoscope differently. These effects caused by Saturn affect our lives directly. In astrology, Saturn is a ferocious planet, but if Saturn is strong in the horoscope, it gives good results to the natives, while being weak it gives inauspicious results. In India, people are scared of this phase as it is believed to bring a lot of hurdles and hardships in the life of an individual. Along with hardships, this phase is known to be a good teacher that makes one recognize and rise above situations.
