Annual Saturn phases for each birth Moon sign, including retrograde returns.
Open your birth Moon sign below to see Saturn’s phases during 2026. If you do not know it, use the birth Moon calculator.
Transition times are estimates. Our local Saturn calculation passes independent Swiss checks for 172 sampled sign crossings and 388 stations across 1900–2100. The largest sampled crossing difference is under 20 seconds in TT. Sample differences are not an error bound; historical or future clock times and other calendar conventions can differ. Verify the exact time before using a transition for a personal or ritual decision. Intervals are clipped to the selected calendar year. Retrograde returns can repeat a phase; seven and a half years is an approximate name, not a fixed timer.

Convention and meaning
The three phases correspond to Saturn occupying the sign before, the same sign as, and the sign after the birth Moon: inclusive counts 12, 1 and 2. See Drik’s explanation of the three phases. We calculate sign crossings with approximate Lahiri positions, including retrograde movement. These are traditional transit classifications, not predictions of illness, loss or other personal outcomes. They do not calculate Vimshottari dasha.
