Counted from a Mesh Moon, Shani in 2027 is in your 12th house (Meen) until 3 June, in your 1st house (Mesh) from 3 June to 20 October, and back in your 12th house (Meen) from 20 October. A year that asks for patience with Shani: no stay of it is in a favourable house for Mesh.

the house of expenses and faraway places Hard
The first phase of Sade Sati — expenses rise, sleep gets lighter and work may take you away from home.
Phaladeepika 26.23 (one verse for Shani in the 9th to 12th houses), on the 12th, not one of its good houses: It warns of toil in a worthless or fruitless undertaking, loss of money to rivals, and sickness touching one's spouse and children during this transit.
3 June 2027, 5:28 AM to 20 October 2027, 7:12 AM
your own rashi Hard
The peak of Sade Sati — more responsibility, less help and a heavier mood; it is also when lasting habits are built.
Shani is in Mesh (Aries) in this stretch, its sign of debilitation (neecha), where it is at its weakest.
Phaladeepika 26.22 (one verse for Shani in the 1st to 8th houses), with 26.33, on the 1st, not one of its good houses: It warns of illness during this transit, and of a death in the family calling for funeral rites — the text's caution for this house, not a forecast. It also counts this house, with the 8th, among those where Shani's transit asks care for life, position and wealth.

the house of expenses and faraway places Hard
The reading of that stay above holds again.
Sade Sati: Shani over the 12th, 1st and 2nd from the Moon; dhaiyya: two and a half years in the 4th or 8th
For Mesh, 2027 is in the first phase of Sade Sati until 3 June and again from 20 October; in the middle, heaviest phase of Sade Sati from 3 June to 20 October. The Sade Sati as a whole runs from 29 March 2025 to 31 May 2032. The full dates and upay
Shani is vakri from 9 August 2027 to 24 December 2027, turning in Mesh, your 1st house, and moving back into Meen, your 12th house. A vakri graha seems to move backwards from the Earth; the texts hold it gains strength (cheshta bala) and that its stay repeats a house it had left. More on vakri
For Shani’s hard stretches, offered as your faith allows
ॐ शं शनैश्चराय नमः
Om Sham Shanaishcharaya Namah
108 times on Saturday, with a daan of black sesame and iron. Shani rewards steady, patient effort; the japa is kept as that discipline.
Phaladeepika reads these transits from the natal Chandra (Moon), counting each house from its rashi. It counts Guru (Jupiter) good in transit through the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th houses from the Moon; Shani (Saturn) good in the 3rd, 6th and 11th; and Rahu and Ketu, whose effect it likens to the Sun's, good in the 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th. Elsewhere, it adds, their transit calls for more care.
Phaladeepika says a graha transiting an unfavourable house does no harm if it is then in its exaltation or own rashi, and gives its full good results if it is also in a favourable house. The same graha transiting a favourable house gives nothing if it is in debilitation, an enemy's rashi or eclipsed; and if the house is also unfavourable, it gives its bad results in a sharper form.
Phaladeepika 26.1, 26.2, 26.31, 26.32. The stays and their tone are the same ones our yearly rashifal reads.
Guru 2027: until 25 January in your 5th (favourable); from 25 January to 26 June in your 4th (hard); from 26 June to 26 November in your 5th (favourable); from 26 November in your 6th (hard).
Rahu 2027: all year in your 10th (favourable).
Ketu 2027: all year in your 4th (hard).

For your Moon rashi, the rashi the Moon was in when you were born: Phaladeepika (26.1) reads every transit from the Moon. If you only know your lagna, find your Moon rashi with the free calculator first.
No. The dates are the same for everyone with this Moon; how strongly a stay is felt depends on the running dasha, the graha’s ashtakavarga points in that sign and its strength in your own kundli.
Where every graha is today from your Moon and lagna, with vedha and ashtakavarga.
