Saturn (Shani) Rashi Transit 2029
Saturn signifies discipline, karma, delay and longevity. Its slow movement of about two and a half years per sign underlies Sade Sati and Dhaiyya, making Shani Gochar the most closely watched slow transit.
A rashi transit (Gochar) is the moment a graha leaves one zodiac sign and enters the next in the sidereal (Nirayana, Lahiri) system. Transit signs are read against your Moon sign and ascendant to judge the effect of the period. The Saturn spends about 2.5 years in each sign. Times below are exact to the minute, calculated with the sidereal Lahiri ayanamsa.

Rows marked Retrograde are crossings made while Saturn is moving backward, so it can appear to re-enter the same sign more than once.
Note: positions are calculated with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa using the Swiss Ephemeris. Other Panchang sources use slightly different ayanamsa values, so their times can differ from these by a few minutes for the Sun and Moon, and by more for slower planets such as Jupiter and Saturn.
