Below you will find some general Vedic remedies for Shani Sade Sati, which anyone can perform to nullify the negative effects and give some relief throughout this 7 ½ year-long period.

Saturn is your ultimate purpose in life and the path you need to follow, the mistakes you make, and the lessons you need to learn. It is the creator of rags to riches stories but it can turn things the other way round too. It works much like a teacher, but one who is a tad harsh and strict in its ways than say, Jupiter, especially during Sade Sati. If Saturn is the judge, Sade Sati is your trial period and who likes to stand a trial?
