Sade Sati: Aries (Rising), Pisces (Peak), Aquarius (Setting)
Dhaiya: Leo, Sagittarius
Sade Sati is counted from your Moon sign, your janma rashi. It runs while Saturn passes through the sign before it, the sign itself and the sign after — the rising, peak and setting phases, about two and a half years each. A dhaiya, or small panoti, runs while Saturn is in the 4th or the 8th sign from the Moon.
So the dates are the same for everyone with the same Moon sign. They are dated here by the sign Saturn holds at noon, India time. Saturn turns retrograde every year, so near a sign's edge it can step back for a few months and a phase splits in two; those returns are dated too.
Sade Sati is a stretch of effort and responsibility, not a curse: work feels heavier, patience is tested, and what is built in these years tends to last. Tradition counts the peak, Saturn over the Moon sign itself, as the most demanding phase; the setting phase eases into the payoff.
Enter your birth details above, or open your rashi's page below: Sade Sati is counted from the Moon sign alone, so its dates are your rashi's.

Saturn in the 4th or the 8th sign from the Moon, about two and a half years each time. It is lighter than Sade Sati and asks for patience and steady routines.
It is a stretch of effort and responsibility, not a curse. What is built in these years tends to last, and many people look back on it as the time they grew up.
Tradition counts the peak, Saturn over the Moon sign itself, as the most demanding. The rising phase builds up to it and the setting phase eases away.
Usually not: Sade Sati is counted from the Moon sign, which the birth date usually settles. On a day the Moon changed sign, the calculator shows both signs and you choose.
