Saturn, considered a divine force of justice and the giver of karma's fruits, holds a special place in astrology. When Saturn changes its movement—whether it is changing signs, changing nakshatras, or moving backward (Vakri Drishti)—it deeply affects every person's life. According to Drik Panchang, Saturn begins to move in reverse direction from July 27.
The Influence of Saturn's Retrograde Motion
When Saturn enters a state of retrograde motion, its power and influence multiply. During such a period, people suffering from the influence of Saturnian Dhaiya must exercise extreme caution and vigilance.
Signs Under the Influence of Saturnian Dhaiya
According to Vedic astrology, two signs are affected by the Saturnian Dhaiya: Leo (Singh Rashi), which is under the eighth Dhaiya, and Sagittarius (Dhanu Rashi), which is under the fourth Dhaiya.
Impact on the Sign of Leo
Saturn's retrograde position in the eighth house may bring unexpected ups and downs, as well as life difficulties. Special care should be taken regarding health, as problems with the stomach, joints, or chronic diseases may arise. It is also recommended to avoid any new or risky investments and to beware of secret enemies. Completed matters may get stuck at the last moment, and the results of efforts may take longer to materialize. However, those involved in research, esoteric knowledge, or astrology may experience sudden success.
Impact on the Sign of Sagittarius
Retrograde Saturn in the fourth house affects family happiness and comfort. There may be concerns about the mother's health, as well as difficulties in establishing relationships with family members. A person may experience unjustified anxiety, apathy, and worry. When buying or selling land, a house, or a vehicle, documents should be thoroughly checked, and hasty decisions should be avoided. Nevertheless, for those planning to study or work abroad, new opportunities may open up.
