Dates are when Saturn enters and finally leaves the signs (sidereal, Lahiri); retrograde re-entries are merged. Your own Sade Sati is judged from your Moon sign, which your Kundli shows.

No. Saturn tests patience and rewards discipline. Its effect depends on Saturn's strength in your chart, your dasha and your conduct; many people rise during Sade Sati.
Is Sade Sati judged from the Moon sign or the Lagna?
From the Moon sign (Janma rashi), not from the Lagna or the Sun sign.
