Moon in House 6

Moon represents your emotions, your instincts and what makes you feel safe. House 6 is the house of the small daily work and the health of the body: your tasks, your routines, those who work for you and the little ailments. It asks for care — it's where the body shows its signs and where you serve, day by day.

In the sixth house — of small labour, of subordinates, of illnesses and of small animals — the Moon is cadent, and therefore disposes of only a quarter of its strength. It is a house averse to the ascendant and held evil, a place of fatigue and infirmity, where Mars has its joy. Determined to service, the Moon binds itself here to humble and daily toil, to servants and to those who work for another, and gives easy dealing with the lowly. It inclines to a variable health, with complaints that wax and wane according to the phases — above all of the belly, the breast and the fluids, which the Moon governs. It gives affection for small animals and occupation in handicrafts. Feeling wears itself out in cares and endless tasks. Set in this wearied house, the luminary inclines to serve much and to sicken from that in which it tires itself.
