Yearly Horoscope
A yearly reading is built only from the slow planets — Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. The fast planets change several times within a single month, so they have no place in a reading that covers a year.

Ye Moon sign — the sign the Moon was in at birth. The Western Sun sign is different from it. If you do not know it, free kundli can work it out.
Which planets this reading uses
A yearly reading uses only the four slow planets — Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu.
Only these four move slowly enough for their effect to point one way across a whole year. Jupiter stays in a sign about a year, Saturn two and a half, Rahu and Ketu roughly a year and a half each.
The fast planets are absent, and that is not an oversight. The Moon completes about 13 full circuits in a year — drawing a year-long statement from it goes against the arithmetic.

Why does the yearly reading use only four planets?
Because only four move slowly enough for their effect to point one way across a year — Jupiter, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu. The Moon completes about 13 circuits in that time; drawing a year-long statement from it goes against the arithmetic.
Why does Jupiter’s transit matter so much?
Because Jupiter stays in one sign for about a year — meaning a yearly reading is very nearly one whole Jupiter transit. Whichever house it occupies is where the year’s emphasis sits.
What is the difference between Saturn’s transit and Sade Sati?
Sade Sati is one particular stretch of Saturn’s transit — when Saturn passes through the 12th, 1st and 2nd houses from your Moon sign. Saturn’s transit as a whole is larger; Sade Sati is the seven-and-a-half-year span inside it.
When is the year taken to begin?
The next 365 days from today. It is tied neither to 1 January nor to any new year — the planets’ own motion sets the boundary.
