What is considered a high or low Sarvashtakavarga score?

A total of 30 or more is traditionally considered strong, while 25 or fewer is considered weak. The twelve signs contain 337 points altogether and average about 28 each, so the practical issue is whether a sign stands clearly above or below that baseline.

How long does a Sarvashtakavarga transit strength period last?

It starts when Jupiter or Saturn enters the qualifying sign and ends when that planet leaves, with a maximum span of 1,100 days. The exact dates vary with the transit, so the relevant ephemeris provides the usable start and end points.

Does a high SAV score work the same way for Jupiter and Saturn?

No. A high score gives either transit stronger ground, but Jupiter tends to express that support through expansion and opportunity, while Saturn uses it for discipline, responsibility, and durable construction. Identify the planet before interpreting the score.

Sarvashtakavarga Transit Strength

Your chart · time-limitedSteady☉︎Vedic AstrologySelf

Sarvashtakavarga Transit Strength uses the combined scores of the seven classical planets to assess the conditions Jupiter or Saturn meets while crossing a zodiac sign. It begins on entry into a notably high-scoring or low-scoring sign and can span up to 1,100 days. The four forms are Jupiter in a strong sign, Jupiter in a weak sign, Saturn in a strong sign, and Saturn in a weak sign. Read the planet first, then compare the score level.

In detail

Sarvashtakavarga, abbreviated SAV, combines the bindus, or favorable points, contributed to each zodiac sign by the seven classical planets and the Ascendant through their individual Ashtakavarga tables. The twelve sign totals add to 337, averaging about 28 per sign. A total of 30 or more is traditionally treated as strong, while 25 or fewer is treated as weak. The condition begins when Jupiter or Saturn enters a qualifying sign and ends when it leaves. The score describes how readily that sign supports the transit: higher totals favor constructive delivery, while lower totals restrict results. Compare the four variants by identifying Jupiter's expansive role or Saturn's demanding role first, then judging how a strong or weak score modifies it.
