2023 Saturn Transit for Cancer signs (Kataka Rasi) 2023 - 2025 Ashtama Sani for Kataka Rasi The Saturn owns the 7 th house (Capricorn sign/Makara Rasi) and the 8 th house (Aquarius sign/Kumbha Rasi) for the Kataka Rasi (Cancer sign) natives. The Shani becomes malefic for the Kataka Rasi (Cancer sign) natives, by owning both the malefic 7 th and the 8 th house. The Shani will do more harm, if it is placed in the malefic house; and the Shani can be expected to deliver better results, if it is placed in the benefice house. Here the Shani will be placed in the malefic 8 th house (Aquarius sign/Kumbha Rasi) for the next 2½ years. Hence, the Kataka Rasi (Cancer sign) natives would face Shani in the 8 th house from their sign, which is being described as “Ashtama Shani”. The Kataka Rasi (Cancer sign) must remain cautious during the next 2½ years period in their life The Shani would be transiting into Aquarius sign (Kumbha Rasi), which happen to be its own house for the next 2½ years
