What this transit means
Saturn takes about two and a half years to cross a sign, so its transit sets the background for a long stretch. In the classical gochar (Phaladeepika), Saturn in the 3rd, 6th or 11th house from the Moon is supportive; the 12th, 1st and 2nd make Sade Sati and the 4th and 8th Dhaiyya — times traditionally kept for patience, discipline and steady work, not for fear.
A transit is shared by everyone with the same Moon sign — one person in twelve — so your own chart, lagna and running dasha decide more.
