When Saturn is transiting through the 12th, 1st, and 2nd house from the birth moon, this is termed Sade sati. Sade sati exactly means 7.5 years, which means that Saturn naturally takes 2.5 years in its journey from one house to another house. This Sade sati is considered mainly important in Vedic Astrology. This Sade sati transit is supposed to specify difficult results either to the subject or the native close relatives. People should be correctly informed about the Sade sati malefic influences.
If you have a copy of your birth chart, you can look and see if you yourself are experiencing Sade sati. When people are not correctly informed about the Sade sati malefic influences, they are likely to misunderstand the magnitude of the real experience.
If your natal moon is located in Aries, Taurus or Gemini, you are most certainly in Sade sati. Generally, in Sade sati, Saturn brings increased hardship and suffering around the 30th year, around the 60th year, and then again around the 90th year if the native is still alive. This does not mean that Sade sati is taking place on your 30th year. This Sade sati can begin anytime before your 30th year, and then repeats itself every 30 years thereafter. With regard to the Sade sati transit in particular, one can guess to experience it about two or three times within ones lifetime.

In unusual cases, a person may undergo up to 4 Sade sati cycles in their lifetime. First cycle Sade sati generally affects close relatives more than the native. The 2nd cycle influences of this affect the domestic front as well as the business front, and the 3rd cycle of this Sade sati affects children, physical suffering or may even signify the death. 4th cycle Sade sati brings liberation from either the body or the soul or, possibly, both.
