Work, body, and daily upkeep
The 6th house is the maintenance bay of the chart: jobs, chores, pets, schedules, and how you keep the body running. The cusp sign describes the tone of those routines. Planets here bring their pressure into ordinary days. Mercury and Mars often show up in work style; see your Mercury sign or Mars sign with the full natal chart.
Why the birth time matters
The 6th house cusp is calculated from birth place and time in the Placidus system. Date, clock time, and city are required. A wrong time can move the cusp into another sign. If the time is unknown, noon is only a stand-in.
Frequently asked questions
What does the 6th house say about health?
It describes habits more than diagnoses: sleep, food, exercise, and the small repairs that keep you working. Medical care belongs to professionals. The chart maps patterns, not lab results.
Why does this calculator need my birth time?
House cusps follow the horizon. An hour off can put the 6th cusp in another sign. Noon without a real time is only approximate.
Is the 6th house about career?
It is about the job you do day to day and the service you give. Public status and title sit more in the 10th house. Both matter if you want the full work picture.
