Sadhe-Satee is one of the hardest period in one’s life. Saturn is believed to be planet of sorrow & hardships. Saturn completes its rotation around the Sun in 30 years. Thus Saturn passes through each sign for a period of 2½ years.
When Saturn passes through the 12th rashi (sign) from the birth moon sign, the Sadhe-Satee begins. When Saturn passes through the 2nd sign from the birth sign, Sadhe-Satee comes to an end.
Depending on the power of the original horoscope, original Saturn, Jupiter & their placements in horoscope, the hardships & damages during the Sadhe-Satee vary.
Some of the results of Sadhe-Satee are frequent failures, loss of property, money, illness, trouble in the career, worry etc. It is advisable to wear a Stainless/Silver/Gold Ring of Neelmani (Blue Sapphire) in the middle finger of right hand during sadesati. It is advised to first test if the Blue Sapphire is useful, by placing it in the pocket, or tying to the arm etc. If you want this ring needs to be powered by mantras, consult the panditji. During Sadhe-Satee reading the Shanti Stotra gives a good protection from it.
