Pallas in the sixth house
Pallas in the sixth house applies the craft to work and health. Systems get improved, processes get designed, and the person is the one who notices why the thing keeps failing. Diagnosis in the medical sense often features. Nothing about the daily routine is left unexamined, which is productive and occasionally exhausting for everybody nearby.
What the sixth house covers
Illness, labour, daily routine, subordinates and small animals: the maintenance of a life. The full sixth house →
Which sign holds it
Under whole-sign houses the rising sign settles every other house at once. If you know your Ascendant, this is the sign your sixth house holds and the planet that rules it.
| Aries rising | Virgo · ruled by Mercury |
|---|---|
| Taurus rising | Libra · ruled by Venus |
| Gemini rising | Scorpio · ruled by Mars |
| Cancer rising | Sagittarius · ruled by Jupiter |
| Leo rising | Capricorn · ruled by Saturn |
| Virgo rising | Aquarius · ruled by Saturn |
| Libra rising | Pisces · ruled by Jupiter |
| Scorpio rising | Aries · ruled by Mars |
| Sagittarius rising | Taurus · ruled by Venus |
| Capricorn rising | Gemini · ruled by Mercury |
| Aquarius rising | Cancer · ruled by Moon |
| Pisces rising | Leo · ruled by Sun |
Quadrant systems such as Placidus cut the houses by the angles instead, so a planet near a cusp can land in a different house from the whole-sign answer. The chart page shows both.
Reading it in context
A keynote is a starting point, not a verdict. What Pallas actually does in your sixth house depends on its sign, its aspects, its dignity, and whether it is in sect. Two people with the same placement and different charts around it live it differently.
