Sixth House
The House of Health
The sixth house is the everyday. It rules your work, your routines, your health and the small habits that quietly run your life. It is where the ordinary becomes a kind of care.
What the sixth house rules
Daily labour, service to others, wellbeing, and the systems that keep you functioning. It is care expressed through attention.
Planets in the sixth house
Planets here shape your work ethic, your relationship with health, and how much order you need in a day to feel like yourself.
The sign on your sixth house cusp
This shows how you approach work and wellness: the routines that steady you, and the ones that wear you down.
Naturally ruled by Virgo. Each house has a sign that feels most at home in it. The 6th house belongs to Virgo and its ruler Mercury, which is why this house carries a Virgo flavour even before you add your own planets.
