This is one of the better explanations of the 6th house. Most are doom and gloom.

[@Masteringthezodiac]

+Shannon Rose Great to hear Shannon. Thank you.

[@spiritualcfo]

I love the way you explain the houses :) Thanks!

[@IppaFi]

Thank you Athen! Awesome information!

[@jc-ev2jb]

great presentation! fits right in with the transits for me and the full moon and other people! sub

I have yet to see an astrologer who would explain the 6th house as a highly psychological house. It is the house of enemies, difficulty and disease. But who are our enemies? It's us! Only ourselves. It's our pre-conditioning, patterns of thinking and behaviour and therefore those who have a prominent 6th house will be drawn by life circumstances to work a lot with their own inner world, their psyche to increase their awareness to overcome those "enemies", to shed a light and get out of the prison of unconscious. Plato talks about the cave and everything we see is just a reflection of things,not the real world. Imo the 6th house deals with projections of our shadows onto others. We have to learn about our shadow (our enemy). People with 9th house lord in the 6th house will be drawn to psychology, yoga, counselling and helping themselves through helping others. I know what I'm talking about. My Jupiter in Pushya is a lord of the 9th and the 2nd. It is placed in the 6th house. My Jupiter is even more prominent as it's my Atmakaraka's nakshatra's lord. Helping others brings a lot of value to me but I can only help when I learn how to take a good self-care of myself through diet (2nd house - Sun, Moon, Mercury - food allergies btw), yoga practice and working on my awareness etc. Vedic astrology is amazing but would like to see more astrologers understanding the 6th house as a house of purity (Virgo) and again what is purity? It's recognising our shadows and all the parts of us to increase awareness. 6th house is a house of awareness in that sense.

THANK YOU!! i agree 100% with this! I have Pisces sun in 6th house and it’s so much More than just work and health and everyday routine, I’m constantly getting hit hard when Major planets transit the 6th as well as the 8th/12th similar feelings to me.

[@victoriaburgess700]

Best explanation! Thanks 😊

[@malik2dragonz517]

One of the best explanations and breaking down of basics. Thank you very much.

[@sdmugabe]

Great explanation sir!

[@kaylaschultz7441]

I have just discovered this amazing relevance of birth charts!! 😍😍😍 I’m looking at it for my kids and husband! He has many planets in his 6th house. Cusp is Scorpio and then Sagittarius. The plants are Mercury, Sun, Saturn, and Neptune! Eek! Would you be able to help me interpret this?! He is indeed struggling with some things. Thank you so much! Kayla

With my 6th house in Gemini (Gemini Moon) Being orderly in daily routine, mental thoughts, and physical material world makes me happy and quiets the chaos in order to propel forward at higher speeds without my ADD getting in the way Gemini moon for me is gift and a curse Full of life, dynamism, humor, beautiful thoughts, but also an immense restlessness that feeds my ambition and simultaneously slows down my ambitions dramatically. This upcoming year I will use what little capital I have to invest in myself. To buy things that automate my life and automate ORDER in life (that Gemini so resistant to) in order to fulfill my conflicting basic needs and wants and it will be a TEST and experiment to see if by fulfilling those needs, if I can open myself up to higher focus, tighter routine and discipline to excel at life.

[@lilacdreams5966]

I have the same Gemini moon, Gemini in the sixth. But strangely my moon falls in the 5th house. I have similar feelings with you but a lot of anxiety around routine cos I feel and think so differently every day and find sticking to routines tedious

[@okaywow3486]

THANK YOU FOR WRITING THIS ! You articulated this so beautifully. I also have my 6th house in Gemini (Gemini Moon) and this made me feel seen and heard!!

[@bperez8656]

@@okaywow3486 Thanks for writing. I’m going through immense change in my life right now and it was great to see my thoughts from 2 years ago. I have to say, while this notion worked, materialism, physical chaos has gotten in the way of a lot of my progress. I’m going through aggressive, forced, healing unleashing of material things as they prevent routine and order to an extreme degree in my life right now

[@okaywow3486]

@@bperez8656 Oh, my! Thank you for sharing! As someone who is also navigating healing, are there any insight you would like to share?

[@bperez8656]

@@okaywow3486 I mean, I have ADD, so it can be extremely debilitating, overwhelming, paralyzing to witness physical chaos and let it get worse with impulses, especially after a long week where you want to shut down. I realize taking time off work Not to vacation but to reset home and mind is working and really really convincing myself that I don’t need THINGS, CLOTHES, materials. I’m a Libra with Gemini moon I love things and ideas and manifesting situations where I might need said things and ideas with people. All of that futurist thinking is very hypothetical and not grounded in reality. As a Capricorn Rising and Virgo Venus. I have a part of me that is very grounded in practicality and the deep need for efficiency so it’s part of my values to want to improve upon my chaotic parts of self. One tactic I’m developing is trying to simplify my wardrobe to be conservative and simple. Example. Same 5 white shirts, same 5 blue shirts. But then add flavor with my jackets or something. Stop collecting items and donate and feel gratified with that. Etc

[@nicolasnieto6307]

Hello! Can you make a video talking about moon in the 6th house?

[@bambinoesu]

Amazing

[@ciudadanodelmundo9558]

Hello, what happens if i have, saturn (in sagitarius), uranus (in sagitarius), neptune (in capricorn) and ceres (in sagitarius) in 6th house? and in 12 house i have the moon (in gemini), mercury (in gemini conjuncts ascendant cancer), vesta (in gemini) and chiron (in gemini), the ruler of 6th house is conjunct ascendant and the rulers of piscis are jupiter in 10th house (in aries) and neptune in 6th house in capricorn), thanks for sharing your video

[@jakegustafson8668]

I have a stellium in 6th house under sagittarius Pluto, Venus, Mars and Jupiter. With nothing in my 12th house, What does this mean?

[@Unknown-zj1is]

Is he talking about the 6th house I moved in?

[@scottwhite115]

I have 3 planets sun mercury moon and ketu in 6th house of Aquarius. Chart ruler and ascendant ruler in 6th. Plus opposing it I have Jupiter hemmed in my 12th house by mars and rahu. Is my life shit?

[@illuminatedmastery]

I think you made a mistake at the end; when looking at the sign that rules the 6th you should be looking at Virgo, Mercury rules Virgo . Leo is 5th house, Sun rules Leo.

[@jadekai8208]

No, his example is that if the 6th house is in Leo that's why he said that

[@livinglaylaj9121]

I really wish I can find an astrologer that talks about Stelliums. I have 6 signs in Capricorn with 5 of them in the 6th house with 6 different planets and know nothing about what this means 😞.

[@Iamanncohen]

My Moon in the 6th house on the cusp between 5 and 6 house 💃🎶💜🎊💕💜💞🤗☀️🌻🦁

[@jeffreyhauser8559]

What if your moon is in 6 house Taurus in a nathal chart?

[@katie.e.g.]

That’s so crazy… I have 7 planets in the 6th house and have a ton of chronic illness

[@siggeboda]

So if I have no planets in the 6th, I have no serious things with Health? :)

[@pratyushbaghel7295]

look at it's lord

[@andreeai.c8476]

6 the house is also about hospitals and doctors?

[@kyleparker2821]

I have moon, Venus and Neptune in 6th house

[@rhondasellars5614]

I have my Uranus 00• also moon 29• & Neptune 24• in Sagittarius ♐️ in this house. Does that mean I will have mental health issues? Or just plain delusional? 🤪

[@allison2879]

Saturn, Jupiter, Moon............oh and Pluto in the 6th house. Also my 12th house is Sun,Mercury, mars,Venus! Any insight to this would be great

[@Masteringthezodiac]

Well you have an opposition there. So balance is important. The key with these two houses is bringing in more presence, acceptance, and surrender to your daily life. Also more discipline, routine, and self-development to your spiritual life such as through meditation or other activities that calm you. As you master this balance you'll find centeredness and personal/spiritual health. There is a lot to say in this but I can also quickly say that you were born during a full moon so you have an awareness about these two areas of life quite distinctly. Also aware of your conscious self clearly on one hand and your emotions on the other. This makes you able to work with your mind without too much emotional influence and vice versa. The key here is also balance ;)

[@allison2879]

Thanks! I like your channel.

[@nappyheadlilgirl]

I have jupiter and chiron in this house and in my 12th house is saturn... i guess tapping into a higher calling? through working and healing myself and others?

[@Masteringthezodiac]

+Ahndreka Willis Yeah I think that's a great way of looking at it. Refining your spiritual side can be a great support to your service work (Saturn in the 12th). You have a lot of wisdom to share about self-improvement etc. (Jupiter in 6th) and that can really help others heal (Chiron).

[@nappyheadlilgirl]

+Mastering the Zodiac with Athen Chimenti I would love to get a natal chart reading. I want someone that's experienced and can provide a personalized natal chart and not something I can l Google myself because I have been doing this for years but I feel like it's something I'm not getting.

[@Masteringthezodiac]

+Ahndreka Willis It would be my pleasure to do a natal reading for you. I look at the chart holistically so it's an integrated reading. I also focus on the overall life path energies. Most importantly I look at the true location of the planets in the sky at the time of your birth ;) Here is the link to my services page if you are interested: masteringthezodiac.com/sessions

Mastering the Zodiac with Athen Chimenti that is perfect! I took a look at the different options and I feel confident in my choice. Thank you for replying and I will be in contact very soon.

[@lexadaweed1057]

What are you in zodiac my man?I really wanna know

[@9thoblivioustarot665]

I'm an Aries and I do fall on the sixth house, the technology of today doesn't jive with me (protested it since the 90s in school) anyways. 1- I already have destroyed cell phones for less and a laptop as well (nothing wrong with them) I think cusp is very strong in my sign so I have rebelled against a lot and happing today now. a rude awakening is that I'm shunning out the society out of my life forever telling them to fuck off stay away from me I don't fucking want to know you and I don't fucking want you to know me is happing. what you have said about sixth house is right, how about the south node in Aries the sixth house if hatred is more powerful taking in the play of the planets?

The delivery you give is very ‘middle school presentation’ lol like an assignment you did research about but have no real connection with. Although it’s informative you don’t give the words meaning. If you were an element you’d be lead.
