Sade Sati for Leo Moon
Leo (Simha) · Current phase: Not in cycle
Leo Moon is OUT of the active Sade Sati cycle in 2026 — Saturn in Pisces is the 8th from Leo Moon, a transformative house rather than a Sade Sati phase. The 8th house activation often brings depth, transformation, and access to resources that require surrender rather than assertion — constructive for Leo Moons willing to release what no longer serves them. The next Leo Moon Sade Sati is not until around 2035.
The three phases
1. 12th from Moon
Saturn in Cancer · Approx. 2035–2037
First phase — losses, expenses, sleep themes.
2. On Moon
Saturn in Leo · Approx. 2037–2039
Peak phase — Moon under Saturn in its own sign; ego-construction cycle.
3. 2nd from Moon
Saturn in Virgo · Approx. 2039–2041
Final phase — family and speech.
