Ezhara, Kandaka and Ashtama Shani
All three are counted from your Moon sign (Koor), not the Lagna. Saturn spends about two and a half years in each sign, so every one of these periods is long.
Ezhara Shani is Saturn in the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from your Moon. Three signs, about seven and a half years. Kandaka Shani is Saturn in the 4th, 7th or 10th, the kendra signs. Ashtama Shani is Saturn in the 8th.
Saturn goes retrograde every year. Near a sign boundary it can slip back for a few months. We catch those too, so your dates match the actual sky, not a rough average.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ezhara Shani (Sade Sati)? +
It is the roughly seven and a half years when Saturn moves through the 12th, 1st and 2nd signs from your Moon sign (Koor). Each sign takes about two and a half years, so it comes in three phases.
What is Kandaka Shani? +
In Kerala, Kandaka Shani is Saturn passing through the 4th, 7th or 10th sign from your Moon sign, the kendra signs. Each lasts about two and a half years. Tamil astrology calls the 4th Ardhashtama Sani and the 7th Kandaka Sani.
What is Ashtama Shani? +
Ashtama Shani is Saturn in the 8th sign from your Moon sign. It lasts about two and a half years and is counted among the harder Saturn periods.
Why does my Sade Sati have a gap or restart? +
Saturn turns retrograde every year. When it is close to a sign boundary it can slip back into the previous sign for a few months and then return. We show every such step back with dates.
Is Sade Sati counted from the Moon sign or the Lagna? +
From the Moon sign (Janma Rashi or Koor). That is why you can check it with just your Koor, even without a birth time.
Is Sade Sati the same as Shani Dasha? +
No. Shani Dasha is the 19-year Saturn period in your Vimshottari dasha, fixed by your birth star, and it comes once in a lifetime. Sade Sati is Saturn's actual movement through the sky past your Moon sign, and it comes back about every 30 years. The two can overlap, but they are counted in completely different ways.
Why does Saturn trouble come back after Sade Sati ends? +
Saturn keeps circling the zodiac. After Sade Sati you get a good stretch with Saturn in the 3rd, then Kandaka Shani in the 4th, and later the 7th, 8th and 10th. In between are good years with Saturn in the 6th and 11th.
How often does Sade Sati come? +
Saturn takes about 29 and a half years to go round the zodiac, so Ezhara Shani returns roughly every 30 years. Most people go through it two or three times in life.
