The 6th House is the first Dushamsta House. It is the least intense of the three. The 6th House is the House of everyday stressors. It deals with facing the real world and resolving conflicts. Everyday responsibilities and routine can be seen in this House. Such as managing your health, legal concerns, and household chores. It also deals with how we handle subordinates, the less fortunate, and those who provide service to us. Competitors and those who challenge us are found in the 6th House. Along with pets and those who can't care for themselves. People with strong 6th House placements are able to resolve conflicts, make excellent healers, might work in the legal field, gives service to those in need, and/or can have a special connection to pets. Digestion and minor illnesses can also be seen from the 6th House. Malefic planets tend to give the best results in this House because they help to overcome conflicts. Benefic planets can also help, but they don't give enough strength to fight through the stressors of life. Benefic planets in the 6th House can also cause weight gain and health concerns.
