Most Astrologers are of the opinion that while the Saturn is moving through the 12th,
1st, 2nd houses to Moon's position in the Rasi chart, is considered 7 ½ Sani (Sadh Sati).
It is believed loss of money, loss in business, change of place, sickness, worries in family,
and various bad events occur during the said period. But in reality during this period the
native sometimes gets very good results in business, family, earning money, and in
various other aspects of their life. Sadh Sati is an excuse for the astrologer with half
baked knowledge to explain the never ending difficulties and worries of native. It is a
meaningless ‘Slogan’. See whether Saturn is a significator of 8, 12, Badhaka or 2, 6, 10,
11. SEE WHAT NAKSHATRAS SATURN IS TRANSITING AT THAT TIME. IF SATURN IS
TRANSITING nakshatras of the significators of 8, 12, BADHAKA houses THEN THE NATIVE
EXPERIENCES BAD RESULTS. BUT IF SATURN IS TRANSITING nakshatras of the
significators of 2, 6, 10, 11 houses THEN THE NATIVE EXPERIENCES EXCELLENT RESULTS
even during so called SADH SATI.
As regards 7 ½ years Saturn, it is an incorrect statement. How many people after waiting
for a number of years get married during Sade Sati. How many get into service only
during sade sati. How many bring forth children. Also how many gain by lottery, races,
speculation, prize bonds etc. The astrologer, who attributes any loss only to 7 ½ years
Saturn, has no experience, and has not, gained sufficient knowledge. Hence, one is to
follow the stellar system; analyze by taking the 7th house as that of the competitor or
opponent. Then alone correct results can be had.
IS DEBILITATED PLANET HARMFUL?:
7 ½ SATURN (SADH SATI) AND ITS TRUTH:
One is fortunate if majority of planets are posited in the constellations of the occupants
or owners of the houses 2, 6, 10 or 11. Also the mutual aspects should be harmonious.
These planets may be debilitated or may be in enemy’s house. Still one’s status will
improve in their periods and sub periods.
Most astrologers are of the opinion that strong planets will offer invariably
advantageous results, where as those who are debilitated will do harm. In practice, it is
found to be ABSURD. Are there not people born in Cancer Ascendant having Jupiter
exalted in the ascendant suffered during Jupiter Dasa? Are there not people born in
Aries having exalted Saturn in 7 met with only difficulties, disgrace and disappointment?
Therefore the nature of the result need not be desirable simply because a planet is
strong. There is nothing as exaltation becoming auspicious and debilitation inauspicious.
A debilitated planet in the constellation of an exalted planet is considered better than
an exalted planet in the constellation of a debilitated planet.
When a planet establishes a set of results by its stellar level, to offer adverse results,
by its having the ownership and being in exaltation, can not take away the adverse
result meant to punish, and never-ever it can offer any favorable results. The planet
when set to offer adverse results, having the ownership and exaltation status the
planet will hasten or activate the adverse results to be offered, but will never give a
contrary result against the stellar level results set by itself.
In the same way, Planets in debilitation, having a set of results to be offered at the
stellar level to offer advantageous results, will act in slow speed, but will never alter and
give contrary results-that is disadvantageous results.
Ownership exaltation or debilitation of Planets are generally known responsible to
indicate the strength or weakness of a human body constitution from head to foot, but
does not take the responsibility to alter the results to be offered, say good to bad or
bad to good.
When a planet is in the exact degree of debilitation, and if a child is born, the part of the
body related to the planet, causes weakness, less strength, or not proportionate and
so on. This is due to the planet is debilitated, the cosmic rays from the stars on that
planet and in turn reaching the earth is so less, it deprives the required oxygen to that
part of the body. Similarly, when a planet is in the exact degree of exaltation and if a
child is born, the part of the body related to the planet is strong, proportionate and so
on.
To say of exaltation, ownership or debilitation, simply on the entering of a Rasi (sign) is
not correct, in a sign, in a particular star, in a particular degree-minute only, as the
planet moves should be reckoned for exaltation or debilitation.
What is meant by exaltation, debilitation or ownership is at certain times the planets are
very bright or very dull during their transits. A child at the time of birth receives the
cosmic rays through planets, if they are debilitated the flow of cosmic rays will be less
and if they are exalted the flow of cosmic rays will be more. On account of this, the body
parts may be strong or weak. Except this, the child at its birth will enjoy or suffer as per
the dictates of the 12 bhava cusp positions and the planets strong or weak can not
enhance or decrease the level of results.
IS 8th HOUSE EVIL?:
It is said that the 8th house indicates receipt of gifts, legacy, money of the deceased,
unearned income, insurance, bonus, entangled money etc. Without the cooperation of
8th house and 6th house one can not win a lottery. 7th house represents your
competitors or other people who are competing with you. 8th house represents other
people's money or unearned money. 6th house is 12th to 7th house, represents loss to
your competitors, and gains to you. If the period of the planet owning and occupying
the 8th house operates, will you receive unearned income or will you loose money?
If the significator of 8 is also a significator of 12, then you issue the check and the other
person puts the check in his bank. If the significator of 8 is also the significator of 6 and
11, then he looses (6) and you gain (11). Therefore the significator of 8 and 12 shows
repayment of loan or lending loan whereas the significator of 6, 8 and 11 indicates gain
of money. If significator of 5 is also the significator of 6 and 11 then you gain in
speculation. But if the significator of 5 is also the significator of 8 and 12 you loose.
When twins are born within few minutes interval, the position of the planets remains
the same. But how is it, either of the two has an advantageous result whereas the
other faces troubles? One lives and the other dies. One gets married early, the other
late. The Traditional Vedic Astrology system fails to explain this. This can be explained
fully by the Advanced Vedic Astrology (KP system) based on constellations and subs.

Vedic Astrology Articles II
MARRIAGE, LOVE, AND DIVORCE:
The 7th house bears reference to union or partnership of any kind, be it marriage or
business or trade ties, agreements etc. This house more than any other, tells us about
the prospective spouse of the individual, the nature of the marriage, the number of
marriages that will be contracted, and the state of married life in general. In traditional
system, the old astrologers only took Venus and the 7th house into account. But
marriage is after all the strictest tie of perpetual friendship and contributes to the
expansion of the family, the houses 2 and 11 should additionally be considered. The
2nd house deals with family and its growth, and the 11th house with ties of a
permanent character. Thus the 2nd, 7th, and 11th houses should be investigated
together in ascertaining everything related to marriage, the prospect of married life, the
personality of the partner, and the time of marriage. 5th house represents love,
romance, entertainment etc. For love marriage 5th house should also be investigated
along with 2nd, 7th, and 11th houses. For divorce or separation 1, 4, 6 and 10th
houses should be investigated as these houses negate the matters of 2, 5, 7, and 11th
houses by being 12th to them.
