Saturn mahadasha
19 years of the 120-year vimshottari cycle
The audit. Slow, heavy, fair. What is built honestly during Saturn survives everything after it; what is not gets dismantled.
Sub-periods
Every mahadasha divides into nine antardashas in the same planetary order, starting with the mahadasha lord's own — so a Saturn mahadasha opens with Saturn–Saturn, its most concentrated stretch. Each antardasha's length is proportional: the Saturn–X antardasha runs 19 × X's years ÷ 120.
