The 6th lord in the 4th house routes service, obligation, disputes and daily work through home, mother, land and emotional foundation. Obligation has moved into the base: the place that is supposed to supply rest supplies duty instead, and the arrangement is structural rather than a run of bad luck. Two ascendants land exalted, three … Read more
The 6th lord in the 3rd house routes service, competition, disputes and daily work through effort, skill, communication and siblings.

The 6th lord in the 2nd house routes service, debt, competition and daily work through wealth, family and speech.

There is a … Read more

What these natives are naturally good at is what they are paid and known for, which is a closer alignment between aptitude and occupation than most charts manage.
