SIXTH HOUSE MOON

The House of Work and Health - The field of service

Employment and employees. Duties, practical responsibilities, and mundane tasks. Daily work. Servants and dependents. Pets and small animals. Diet. Sickness and health. Hygiene and sanitation.  

If something requires mending, improving, editing, refining, or reforming, the person with the Moon in the sixth house not only has practical suggestions to offer, but is likely to follow through with personal efforts to remedy the situation.

This is an appropriate placement for anyone who serves the public by providing food, drink, or medical facilities. It makes a capable civil servant, especially in the departments of health, sanitation, and welfare. It is also felicitous for homemaking, domestic service, and for officials charged with the responsibility of maintaining public places in efficient running order.

Since these people tend to be worriers, a quiet life can spare them emotional tension and accompanying nervous and digestive upsets.

This placing will have an important effect on the health and well-being. It is important that the subject develops good steady habits and overcomes such negative ones as smoking, drinking or drug-taking, which will all have a more than usually adverse effect.

A steady work routine should also be aimed for, so the Moon's emotional forces and responses can develop into a steady rhythm and a balance can then be maintained.

Diet is influenced by the sixth house and this, too, must be regulated, for in adverse conditions there may be a tendency to binge on comfort food, or perhaps to become anorexic. The likelihood that these possibilities may occur is especially pronounced when the individual needs to retreat from difficult situations.
