Shani
Saturn
Ayur karaka — significator of longevity; also work, service, suffering, and karmic accountability
Shani is the most feared of the planets but ultimately one of the most important teachers. Saturn rules discipline, work, service, longevity, the elderly, hard-won achievement, restriction, delay, justice, and the unrelenting passage of time. A strong, well-placed Saturn gives the capacity for long sustained effort, success that arrives later in life but lasts, deep wisdom from suffering met with equanimity, and the ability to endure. An afflicted Saturn can manifest as chronic illness, prolonged delays, depression, isolation, or loss. The famous Sade Sati period — Saturn's 7.5-year transit over the natal Moon — is one of the most-discussed Vedic phenomena. Saturday is Saturn's day, traditionally observed with fasting, simplicity, and service to those who suffer.
