Saturn retrograde

Saturn is the lord of time, discipline, karma and limits. Its retrograde lasts about four and a half months every year and re-opens responsibilities you thought were settled: debts, duties, health routines, unfinished work. Jyotish reads retrograde Saturn as slow but thorough — nothing is dropped, everything is re-examined. For those in Sade Sati or a Saturn dasha this window is where the lesson becomes concrete.

All times are UTC. Signs are sidereal (Lahiri ayanamsa), as used in Vedic astrology; they differ from Western tropical signs by about 24°. Day-level dates come from noon positions, so an ingress very close to midnight may fall on the neighbouring day in your time zone.
