Sade Sati for Mesh
Sade Sati is the roughly seven-and-a-half-year stretch during which Saturn transits the twelfth house from your Moon sign, then your Moon sign itself, then the second — three dhaiyas of about two and a half years each. It is judged from the rashi, which is why it can be answered without a birth chart.

What this page can and can’t tell you
Whether Sade Sati is running, and its exact dates, depend only on your Moon sign — so those numbers above are complete. How heavily it lands does not: that depends on Saturn’s strength in your chart, which house it rules for you, the dasha you are running and much else. Anyone quoting a severity score from your rashi alone is guessing.
