Planets in the 6th House

Day-to-Day

The planets in the 6th house influence how the themes of work, health, service and daily routines unfold in your life. Each planet adds its unique energy, shaping your approach to tasks, self-care and your relationships with coworkers or those you serve. These placements reveal the strengths, challenges and opportunities for growth within your daily habits and overall well-being.

Sun in the 6th House

Work identity and vitality through service

You derive a strong sense of identity and pride from your work and daily routines. With the Sun in the 6th house, you excel in tasks that require dedication and attention to detail. You often find purpose in serving others and contributing to the well-being of those around you. Health and wellness play a vital role in your life and you’re likely to prioritize self-care and good habits to maintain your physical and emotional vitality.

Moon in the 6th House

Emotional connection to work and health

Your work and routines may fluctuate, reflecting the ebb and flow of your emotions. You feel deeply connected to your daily tasks and find comfort in structure, often becoming unsettled when your schedule is disrupted. You thrive when you feel productive and useful, but it’s essential to protect yourself from stress, as it can impact your health. Self-care rituals are especially soothing and emotionally restorative for you, providing balance and well-being.

Mercury in the 6th House

Analytical work and mental focus

You bring a sharp and analytical mind to your work, often thriving in tasks that require problem-solving, communication and organization. With Mercury in the 6th house, verbal or intellectual work suits you well and you may excel in research or detail-oriented roles. However, you might have a tendency to overthink your health or become anxious if your schedule feels overwhelming. Striking a balance between mental focus and relaxation is key to maintaining your well-being.

Venus in the 6th House

Harmony in work and health routines

You have a natural love for creating balance and beauty in your daily life. With Venus in the 6th house, you thrive in pleasant work environments and may excel in creative or caregiving roles. Your affection often extends to pets, finding joy in their companionship. You value self-care and enjoy indulging in wellness practices such as yoga, healthy eating

Mars in the 6th House

Energy and drive in work and health

With Mars in the 6th house, you approach work and fitness with determination and enthusiasm. You are highly motivated and often bring a competitive edge to your workplace or health goals. While your drive propels you forward, you may have a tendency to rush or push yourself too hard. It’s important to manage frustration and avoid overwork, as stress-related health issues can arise if you don’t balance your energy effectively.

Jupiter in the 6th House

Growth through work and health

With Jupiter in the 6th house, you find growth and fulfillment through your work and wellness routines. You may be drawn to jobs in spiritual, religious, or educational settings, as this placement often favors roles that involve teaching, mentoring, or guiding others. Jupiter brings luck and abundance to your daily life and you’re likely to enjoy exploring holistic or expansive approaches to health and well-being, often inspiring those around you.

Saturn in the 6th House

Discipline and responsibility in routines

With Saturn in the 6th house, you approach work and daily routines with diligence and a strong sense of duty. You are willing to work long and hard to fulfill your responsibilities, often displaying great discipline in managing your health and habits. However, this placement can bring challenges, such as health limitations or work-related stress, which test your resilience. These obstacles, though difficult, ultimately foster long-term growth and a deeper understanding of balance in your life.

Uranus in the 6th House

Innovation and unpredictability in work and health

With Uranus in the 6th house, your work life and routines can be marked by unpredictability and change. You may experience erratic employment or feel drawn to unconventional jobs that allow for freedom and innovation. Similarly, you’re likely to explore unique or alternative approaches to health and wellness. Sudden shifts in your routines or health may arise, making it essential to balance your desire for independence with the need for stability and consistency.

Neptune in the 6th House

Idealism and creativity in work and health

With Neptune in the 6th house, your work often involves creativity or the arts and you bring a compassionate, intuitive energy to your daily tasks. You are imaginative and may find fulfillment in roles that allow you to express your ideals or help others. However, you might face challenges with maintaining clarity or consistency in routines. Health issues could arise from stress or tendencies toward escapism, making it important to establish grounding practices in your life.

Pluto in the 6th House

Transformation through work and health

With Pluto in the 6th house, your work may involve roles that others avoid, often requiring depth, resilience, or dealing with life’s complexities. This placement brings an intense focus on daily routines, fostering profound transformation in your work environment or health habits. These changes, while challenging, lead to empowerment and personal growth. You may feel a strong need to control your routines, but it’s important to remain flexible and avoid falling into obsessive or rigid patterns.

Chiron in the 6th House

Healing Work and Health

With Chiron in the 6th house, your path involves deep healing, both in the realms of work and health. You may have a natural ability to serve as a mentor or guide in your workplace, often offering wisdom and support to others. While you might be drawn to careers in caregiving, counseling, or health-related fields, your journey is also one of healing yourself through your daily routines. You may experience times when your own health struggles or work-related stress inspire a greater understanding of balance and self-care. Embracing these lessons allows you to become a source of strength and resilience for both yourself and those whom you mentor.

North Node in the 6th House

Destiny through Service and Wellness

With the North Node in the 6th house, your personal growth is closely linked to embracing daily work, focusing on your health and being of service to others. While you may initially resist these areas, true fulfillment comes when you lean into them. Seek meaning and purpose in the routine tasks and self-care practices that contribute to your well-being and the well-being of those around you.

Author: Alison Price   –   Updated: February 2025

6th House

I’m focusing on the fascinating world of the 6th house, which is a realm dedicated to daily routines, work, health and acts of service. There are 12 houses in every chart. Often overlooked, the 6th house governs the small, consistent efforts that form the foundation of a balanced and meaningful life. The 6th house emphasizes the practical side of living, reminding us that even the most mundane tasks contribute to our overall well-being. It’s our house of daily habits, organization and personal growth, encouraging us to refine our skills and create a harmonious environment.

Starzology Astrology Podcast Episode

The 6th House

Listen to our podcast episode. In this audio only episode, Alison and Arwynne chat about the 6th HOUSE in astrology. They cover the main themes for the area of life and give some ideas on urges when planets and in 6th house.

Natural Wheel

In the natural zodiac wheel, the 6th house is represented by Virgo and governed by MercuryThese associations bring a focus on practicality, attention to detail and self-improvement. Virgo’s earthy energy underscores the importance of being grounded and effective in our daily lives, while Mercury’s influence highlights the role of clear communication and mental sharpness in managing our routines.

6th House Themes

Work, Wages and Occupation

The 6th house governs our daily work, jobs, tasks and the contributions we make to society through our skills and efforts. Unlike the 10th house, which is concerned with long-term career goals and public reputation, the 6th house focuses on the everyday grind—the routines, responsibilities and practical efforts that shape our daily lives. This house is also linked to how we earn a living, with workers typically receiving a wage on a more frequent basis, such as weekly, compared to the monthly salary often associated with the 10th house’s career-focused energies. It’s about the work you do day-to-day, the service you provide and the habits that support your livelihood.

Vocational Astrology

Here are a few articles about finding work in general using astrology.

All these posts are a part of my 🩵 Vocational Astrology topics.

Employees

The 6th house reveals your role as an employee, your work ethic and how you approach your job. It also reflects the employees you manage, such as your vet or your pool guy, showing how you interact with those who serve you. Additionally, the 6th house highlights your relationships with coworkers and subordinates, shedding light on your dynamic within a team and your methods for collaboration and service at work.

Service

People with a prominent 6th house often find fulfillment in being productive, efficient and of service to others. This house highlights not only your own desire to serve, but also your relationship with those who provide services to you such as waiters, Uber drivers, or bellhops. It sheds light on how you interact with those who support you in everyday life and reflects your approach to both giving and receiving service. 

See more about the people in your houses in this article.

Health and Wellness

The 6th house is closely tied to both physical health and occupational well-being. It plays a crucial role in your self-care routines and how you maintain your body through bathing, diet, exercise and other daily habits. This house also reflects minor illnesses which you can recover from. They are typically short-term or manageable, such as the flu or a broken ankle. The planets in the 6th house can reveal tendencies toward specific health challenges, as well as strengths in recovery and resilience. Overall, it emphasizes the balance you create in taking care of your body and well-being this topic can be explored more in medical astrology.

Routines

The 6th house is all about your daily routines and rituals. It governs the systems and habits you create to manage your life effectively. While these routines may include everyday tasks like cleaning or organizing, they are essential for providing stability and structure. These seemingly mundane activities form the backbone of your day, offering consistency and a sense of order in your life.

Lifestyle Hobbies

The 6th house also reveals your hobbies and daily lifestyle practices, particularly those that contribute to your overall well-being and personal growth. These lifestyle hobbies that you do (not crafty hobbies where you make things, that’s 5th house), will involve routines that nurture both your body and mind, such as meditation, yoga, or tai-chi. They reflect how you choose to spend your time outside of work and offer you a sense of balance and fulfillment. Even if it’s a relaxing activity or something that helps you stay physically fit, these lifestyle hobbies play an important role in maintaining a harmonious and healthy lifestyle. They highlight the ways you incorporate self-care and personal development into your everyday life, grounding you in routines that promote both mental clarity and physical vitality.

Pets and Small Animal Care

The 6th house is connected to your pets and small animals, typically those smaller than a goat. This includes animals like cats, dogs, tropical fish, birds (such as budgies), chickens, ducks, rabbits, hamsters and more. It reflects your natural urge and connection to care for animals, highlighting the nurturing role you play in their lives. This house also emphasizes the therapeutic benefits of having pets, such as their ability to lower stress, enhance emotional well-being and even reduce blood pressure. Your relationship with these animals often brings comfort and balance to your daily routines, fostering a sense of care and responsibility.

Small Plants

The 6th house governs small plants, including houseplants, herbs and medicinal plants. It is the domain of nurturing green life within your home, garden or daily environment, from potted plants to the herbs you use for cooking or healing. 

I have more about the 6th house and herb gardening in this article.

This house highlights your connection to the natural world on a small scale, focusing on how you care for and cultivate plants that contribute to your well-being, whether for their beauty, practical uses, or therapeutic properties. Having plants in the 6th house often speaks to a person’s desire to bring life and growth into their routine, symbolizing a grounding and restorative connection to nature

It can also reflect the joy and healing benefits that these plants bring, from the calming effect of tending to them to their role in enhancing your environment and overall health. Medicinal plants, in particular, align with the house’s focus on health and wellness, offering natural remedies that complement your self-care practices.

Overarching Themes of the 6th House

Busy, Busy

Among all the houses in a birth chart, I believe the 6th house stands out as one of the busiest and most dynamic. It governs so many aspects of life that we encounter daily, such as work, routines, health and service. While not everything your 6th house represents will be significant every year of your life, there are times when its themes will take center stage.

Daily Life

You won’t face a new job or a health challenge every year, but these are common experiences that arise periodically. These moments often serve as life turning points and your clients may seek guidance during such times when some 6th house matters come to the forefront of their lives.

Maintenance

In a way, I think that the best way to use the energy of your 6th house is by maintaining what you already have. If you prioritize your general health with regular exercise, a balanced diet and mental well-being, you can build resilience against life’s ups and downs. The 6th house is an area of life which reminds us that small, intentional efforts (Atomic Habits) in our daily lives lay the foundation for long-term strength and resilience. I’m not saying that this is easy, but if you can navigate the planetary energy represented by your 6th house, I believe that you will prevail.

The Midheaven

The Midheaven

Author: Alison Price   –   Updated: February 2025

The Midheaven

The Midheaven, also called the Medium Coeli (MC), is one of the most important points in an astrological natal chart. Positioned at the cusp of the 10th house in the Placidus house system, it represents the peak of your public and professional life. This pivotal point symbolizes your career, social standing, aspirations, and the legacy you aim to leave behind. 

Listen to Our Podcast Episode

 

Midheaven Themes 

High Point

The Midheaven marks the highest point the Sun reached in the sky on the day of your birth. It is an angular point in your chart, directly linked to your outward persona, reputation and role in society.  It reflects your public face and the image you project in civilization.  It highlights your potential achievements and long-term ambitions. 

Public Persona

Unlike the Ascendant, which reflects your personality and how others perceive you on first impressions, the Midheaven focuses on your public life, long-term goals and how you contribute to the world. It captures the essence of your ambitions, showing where and how you are likely to shine on the world stage.  This point is about the role you play in the public sphere, contrasting with your private self. The Midheaven focuses on your external contributions and achievements, as opposed to personal or familial matters. 

Career and Public Life

The Midheaven’s sign, along with any planets near it, provides insight into your ideal career path and professional strengths. It also influences how you present yourself in the career workplace and what drives your ambitions. 

Reputation and Legacy 

This point symbolizes the mark you wish to leave on the world. It reflects your achievements and how society views your contributions. A strong Midheaven placement often correlates with a prominent public image or a significant professional impact. 

Life Goals

The Midheaven acts as a compass, guiding you toward your life’s purpose and what you are striving to accomplish. It highlights your desire for recognition, leadership and fulfillment in your chosen path. 

Midheaven Signs

Each different zodiac sign, when on the Midheaven, brings a unique flavor to the way you approach your career and public image. Here are some ideas of how the Midheaven will present depending on the sign.

Aries Midheaven

Bold, independent and pioneering. You thrive in roles that allow leadership and self-expression.

10th House

10th House

Author: Alison Price   –   Published: December 2024

10th House Main Themes

How the World Knows You

The 10th house is one of the most significant houses in astrology, associated with career, public reputation, social status and life’s calling. It shows how the world knows you as opposed to the Ascendant which shows how you are known by people whom you meet face-to-face. After the 1st house, I consider the 10th house as next most influential house in someone’s birth chart.

Career and Professional Life

This house reveals your career path, professional ambitions and your relationship with authority figures. It indicates your approach to achieving professional goals.

Note on the 6th house: Back in the day, professionals (doctors, lawyers and civil engineers), were paid a salary monthly as opposed to artisanal workers (butchers, bakers and candlestick makers) who were paid a wage weekly which is a main differentiator between the 6th and the 10th house when it comes to making a living.

Your Public Image

The 10th house shows how others perceive you in the public domain, particularly in your professional life. This includes your reputation, fame, notoriety and your public persona and business brand.

Authority and Leadership

It suggests your relationship with authority figures and how you wield influence yourself. Things like your management style and your natural ability to take charge are indicated here.

Achievement and Recognition

The rewards and acknowledgment you receive for your efforts and contributions to the world, including honors, awards and social status are shown by your tenth house. This is where you accept the Nobel Peace prize.

Life’s Purpose

In some houses systems, like Placidus which I use, the Midheaven is the cusp of the 10th house. This sensitive point represents your lofty aspirations and your legacy which you wish to leave behind.

Astrological Influences

Sign, Ruler, Tenants and Saturn

The sign on the cusp of your 10th house influences how you approach your career and public life. The 10th house ruler, and its condition, suggest your approach to 10th house natters. Planets tenanting the 10th house can strongly impact your professional path and public standing. Saturn as the ruler of the natural 10th house has an affinity here, as it rules structure, responsibility and authority

Angular

The 10th house is one of the four angular housesThis makes it a particularly powerful and influential house in a birth chart. Its position at the very top of the chart (the highest point) symbolizes its connection to visible achievements and public recognition.

Cusp

Always look for aspects to the Midheaven, or the 10th house cusp degree, as they will influence the 10th house as a whole.

10th-house

Planets in the 10th House

Dynamic Impact

The impact of any planet in the 10th house is particularly strong because:

  • The 10th house is an angular house, making planetary energies more prominent
  • Planets here are at the highest point in the chart, making their influence more visible and may be the most elevated planet.
  • Planet here can be in the Midheaven Gauquelin sector.
  • Career and public life become important channels for expressing the planet’s energy

Let’s take a look at how each planet expresses itself when placed in the 10th house of career, public image and achievement.

Sun in 10th House

The Sun here creates a natural leader who often achieves significant public recognition and fame. You are drawn to positions of authority and tend to shine brightest in your career. You may strongly identify with your professional role and often have leadership positions thrust upon you. There’s a strong drive for you to make your mark on the world and be recognized for your unique contributions.

Moon in 10th House

This placement often indicates a career which involves caring for or nurturing others. Your public image may wax and wane with moods and emotional sensitivity playing a significant role in your professional life. With the Moon in the 10th house you might work in fields related to food, family, women’s issues or emotional support. Your reputation often centers around your emotional intelligence and ability to express understanding.

Mercury in 10th House

Communication becomes central to career success if you have this placement. You excel in professions requiring writing, speaking, teaching or analytical thinking. You perhaps will become known for your intellectual abilities or communication skills. Careers in journalism, education or technology appeal to you when Mercury is placed here. It is likely that your public image will center around your intelligence and ability to convey information.

Venus in 10th House

This placement suggests you may flourish in a career involving beauty, art, harmony or relationships. You will probably excel in creative fields, diplomacy or positions that require charm and social grace. With Venus in the 10th house your public image tends to be pleasant and attractive. You may become known for your taste, style or ability to create beautiful things. Success for you often comes by maintaining good relationships.

Mars in 10th House

Mars here creates ambitious people who pursue their goals with tremendous energy and drive. You are a natural entrepreneur and leader who isn’t afraid to take the initiative in your career. This placement may indicate success in competitive fields, sports, or positions which require courage and decisive action. Your public image often centers around your boldness and ability to get things done.

Jupiter in 10th House

This is considered a fortunate placement for career and social status. You often experience significant professional expansion and opportunities for growth. You may work in fields related to education, law, religion or international affairs. Your public image tends to be positive and expansive. With Jupiter in the 10th house, you often achieve recognition in your chosen field.

Saturn in 10th House

Saturn here indicates a serious approach to your career and reputation. Success comes through hard work, patience and by building solid foundations over time. You often face early career challenges but can achieve lasting recognition with persistence. You are likely to become an authority figure in your field and you are usually highly responsible and reliable in your professional role.

Uranus in 10th House

This placement suggests you have an unconventional career path or an innovative approach to your professional life. You often break with tradition and may change careers suddenly or work in cutting-edge industries. Your public image might be seen as eccentric or revolutionary and you often bring new ideas or methods to your profession when Uranus is here.

Neptune in 10th House

Neptune here can indicate a career involving creativity, spirituality, healing or the arts. There might be some confusion or uncertainty about your career direction, but also the potential for inspiration and intuitive understanding in professional matters. Your public image might be somewhat elusive or idealized. You often work in areas that require imagination or compassion.

Pluto in 10th House

This placement suggests you will experience profound transformations through career and public life. You often have significant power or influence in your profession and may work in fields involving research, psychology or transformation. When Pluto is in the 10th house your public image can be intense or mysterious. You frequently experience major changes in your professional life that lead to personal evolution.

Chiron in 10th House

Chiron’s placement here often indicates restoration through your career and professional life. You might work in a healing profession or help others overcome professional wounds such as being laid off. Your own business challenges often become sources of wisdom which you can share with others.

Eris in 10th House

Eris in the 10th house suggests a professional path marked by disruption and one which challenges the status quo. You find yourself drawn to careers where you can expose injustice or inequality. There may be a tendency to create discord in your professional setting, but this usually stems from a deep-seated drive to reveal uncomfortable truths. Your public reputation might be controversial, as you are not afraid to stand up against established power structures. Success comes through embracing your role as a professional provocateur or whistleblower.

Vacant 10th House

An empty 10th house in a birth chart doesn’t mean your career and public life are insignificant or non-existent, but rather that this area of life may be less complex or dramatic. The sign on the 10th house cusp (and its ruling planet) become especially important in interpreting your career matters. 

An unoccupied 10th house suggests that you are more flexible in your professional path being unburdened by any planetary urges in this area of life. You may naturally integrate various life experiences into your career journey without feeling overly defined by your profession. Consider at the Midheaven’s ruling planet’s house (the planet that rules the sign on the Midheaven) and aspects for additional insights into how career themes will manifest in charts with a vacant 10th house.

Uranus in the Signs

Uranus in the Signs

This week I’m once more turning my attention to a planet that I really like and that is Uranus and specifically Uranus in the signs. Uranus rules astrology and as such is always a pleasure. Huh? Well maybe not a pleasure but certainly a planet of interest to astrologers. Let’s take a look.

Themes

When prominent in a birth chart by position or conjunction to the Sun, Moon or chart ruler, Uranus can indicate someone who is unconventional, eccentric and eager to challenge the status quo. Uranian energy is inventive, progressive and always looking new ways of doing things. However, the energy can also manifest as seemingly erratic, impulsive and be resistant to tradition.

I say seemingly as its clear to the person doing the thing, but not to the onlookers. Uranus is the planet of innovation, disruption and sudden change. It represents, among other things, the drive for individuality, freedom and progress. Uranus embodies the drive for freedom, progress and radical transformation on both the personal and the collective level. Its energies can bring excitement, but also disruption and unpredictability into your life.

Generational

Uranus has a long 84-year orbit which means it spends about seven to eight years in each sign. This timeframe strongly shapes the collective consciousness during that time. When Uranus changes signs, it can bring sweeping societal changes, technological advancements and a general spirit of revolution and reform for all and sundry.

Complex

In your natal chart, your Uranus complex shows where you crave independence, novelty and a departure from the ordinary. People with a strong Uranian influence often have an innovative mindset and a futuristic perspective that sets them apart.

Uranus in the Houses

Uranus in the Houses

I’d like to share with you some of my thoughts on Uranus in the houses and additionally as it relates to astrologers and astrology.

Astrologer’s Charts

Uranus is the modern ruler of astrology and just to be clear Mercury is the traditional ruler of astrology. In its role of presiding over astrology, Uranus can be significant in astrologer’s charts. If you are a hobbyist, amateur, student, professional or master astrologer already, the placement of Uranus in your chart can show the type of astrology you are likely to be. These greater details are likely to come through your full Uranus complex, which considers the sign, house, aspects, position and direction. So assessing Uranus for its themes around astrologers and astrology, it makes more sense to look at the planet in this way in your chart, as an astrology enthusiast reading this, rather than looking in your client’s birth charts unless they too are astrologers.

Basic Natal Astrology

This time I just like to share some of my thoughts with you about Uranus through the houses. The twelve houses are part of basic natal astrology and are considered first year astrology learning along with signs, planets and aspects. Let’s have a closer look at Uranus in each of the twelve astrological houses.
