Saturn Transit (Shani Gochar) 2026-2027: Complete Effects on All 12 Rashis

Saturn (Shani Dev) is the most powerful planet in Vedic astrology when it comes to delivering karmic results. As the slowest-moving planet, Saturn spends approximately 2.5 years in each sign, making its transit effects long-lasting and deeply impactful.

In the current period (2026-2027), Saturn continues its transit through Kumbh Rashi (Aquarius) — its own sign. This is a significant placement because Saturn is strong in its own house, which amplifies both its positive and challenging effects.
