Saturn is generally considered as a Pap-Graha (malefic planet) its role has been analyzed in Uttara Kalamrita. It has been treated as a karaka of ill health, obstructions, disease, enmity, sorrow, death, old age, thefts, lameness etc. But, the role of Saturn as the administrator of divine justice is forgotten by many. This Graha helps the weak and the helpless and stands for common man. Well-placed Saturn can completely change the fortunes of an individual.

The effect of transit of Saturn from Leo rashi to Virgo rashi will affect the fortunes of all rashis. But, the effect will be dependent on many factors like the lordship of Saturn in the natal horoscope, placement of Saturn in natal horoscope and the running dasa in the horoscope. These are the main governing parameters for analyzing the effect of the transit of Saturn on different rashis.

The horoscope shows the planetary promise only. Transits deliver the promises of the horoscope. Transits will not deliver any result if there are no promises in the horoscope. This principle applies to Saturn as well. Even though the transits are good or bad, these may not bring good or bad results unless it is indicated in the horoscope.
