Saturn in Lal Kitab: nature and remedies

Saturn is the planet of work, discipline, justice, servants and long effort.

Saturn is Lal Kitab's judge. It is not a punisher: it pays exactly what the work and the conduct have earned, slowly and in full. Its own houses are the 8th, 10th and 11th. Lal Kitab says Saturn behaves like a snake that bites only when stepped on, which is why its remedies are mostly about conduct.

Saturn remedies avoid what Saturn dislikes and give what it likes: no alcohol, meat or lies, and fair treatment of workers and the poor. Its things are given away: mustard oil, black urad, iron. Lal Kitab is clear that serving labourers and the elderly is the surest Saturn remedy of all.

  • Effort that brings results late, or only after delays
  • Trouble with staff, workers or the father's brothers
  • Heaviness, loneliness and a sense of being held back
