Saturn's transit is the same for everyone on Earth, but its effect depends on your own Moon sign. Enter your name and date of birth and Zodastro tells you which phase you are in, when it started, when it ends and what helps.

Saturday is Shani's day. Many people in Chennai visit a temple, light a sesame-oil lamp or give to charity on Saturdays during Sade Sati. If you plan something important on a Saturday, avoid Rahu Kaal, which on Saturdays falls in the third eighth of the day. The next Saturday's timings for Chennai are below.
Saturday 7 November in Chennai: sunrise 6:04 AM, Rahu Kaal 8:58 AM – 10:25 AM, Tithi Krishna Trayodashi.
| Day (Vara) | Ravivar (Sunday) |
|---|---|
| Tithi at sunrise | Krishna Saptami until Sun 1 Nov, 2:52 PM |
| Nakshatra | Pushya (pada 1) until Mon 2 Nov, 4:30 AM |
| Sunrise / Sunset | 6:02 AM / 5:42 PM |
| Rahu Kaal (avoid) | 4:14 PM – 5:42 PM |
| Abhijit Muhurat (good) | 11:29 AM – 12:15 PM |
All times are Chennai local time (India Standard Time, UTC+5:30). Calculated from Chennai's own sunrise with the Lahiri ayanamsa.
Start and end times are in Chennai time. A vrat is usually kept on the day the Tithi is running at sunrise; your family or temple tradition may differ.
Daylight in Chennai today lasts 11 h 40 min. Over the year it ranges from about 11 h 21 min to 12 h 54 min, so Rahu Kaal here is anywhere from 85 to 97 minutes long, and every daytime Muhurat stretches and shrinks with the seasons.
Sunrise in Chennai today is 6:02 AM, 11 minutes earlier on the clock than in Bengaluru (290 km away). Even nearby cities need their own Panchang.
Chennai is on India Standard Time (UTC+5:30), the same as India (IST).
Chennai does not use daylight saving time, so the clock stays the same all year. Enter birth times exactly as written on the birth certificate.
Chennai keeps a strong Panchangam tradition: Rahu Kalam and Yamagandam are checked daily, and Nakshatra matching (porutham) is a standard step before marriage. The Kapaleeshwarar Temple in Mylapore and the Parthasarathy Temple in Triplicane are at the heart of the city's festival calendar.
Saturn has been in Meena (Pisces) since 29 March 2025 and moves into Mesha (Aries) in June 2027. Until then Sade Sati runs for Kumbha (Aquarius, last phase), Meena (Pisces, peak phase) and Mesha (Aries, first phase), and Shani Dhaiya for Simha (Leo) and Dhanu (Sagittarius).
No. It is a period of hard work, responsibility and lessons, and for many people it brings lasting results. The report explains your phase and practical steps.
No. Saturn's position is the same everywhere, so Sade Sati depends only on your Moon sign. Living in Chennai does not change it, but local timings for remedies, such as Saturday Rahu Kaal, do follow Chennai time.
