Why do some people born in March 1978 get one exact pass and others three?

Each year Saturn appears to stop, back up for a few months and move forward again. If your birth degree sits inside one of those loops, Saturn crosses it three times; otherwise once. Across March 1978 the birth degree moves past the edge of a loop, so 1 Mar 1978 gets three exact passes, 15 Mar 1978 gets one exact pass and 31 Mar 1978 gets one exact pass.

Do I need my birth time?

No. Saturn moved about 2° across the whole of March 1978, so your day matters far more than your hour. Noon is used on this page; the free preview takes a time if you have one.
