When in transit Saturn comes before and after [2nd or 12th] the moon it is known as sadhe-satti period. Saturn takes two and a half years to move from one rashi to the next. Therefore to cross these three rashi’s it will take seven and a half years. During this period one has to face many problems. As already said Saturn does the work of culturing. It will develop a person to finest individual through hard life and struggle.

In sadhe- satti there are three phases, charans or periods. In the first period of sadhe-satti which is of two and a half years, more effect will be on natives head. That is he will have mental pressures. In the second period of sadhe-satti that is in middle or next two and half years, native has more effect on heart and finally in the last period of sadhe-satti the effect will be on natives legs. Same way when Saturn is fourth and eighth from moon in the transit then it is known Dhaia of Saturn.  Eighth dhai of Saturn is more harmful than fourth dhai.

As according to the dasha system a person is supposed to live for at least 120 years. Therefore during a persons life who reaches near 100 or so years sadhe-satti may occur FOUR times which is very rare. Therefore very few people face the fourth period of sadhe-satti

Normally sadhe-satti may take place at least three times in native’s life.

First stage approximately occurs in younger age and a person is supposed to be very difficult. It may have bad effect on one’s career during this stage. Second is less difficult and it approximately comes in middle age but it mainly has bad effect on one’s health and third sadhe-satti which comes approximately in old age is usually considered MARAK.
