Out of all houses placement of Saturn is said to give best
results in sixth house. This seems to be quite intriguing on the face reason
being the challenging nature of this house and testing and contractive nature
of Saturn itself. The results are indeed not straight forward as they are
generally pronounced (and even exaggerated many times).Though placement of
Saturn in any house needs careful attention and detailed study but when this
Mighty Spiritualizing agent is placed in sixth house of chart at time of birth,
then especially one will need extremely sharp distinction about what is possible, where limitation lies, potential
challenges and scope and direction of achievements.
Sixth house is one of the most complex sector where we need
to come out of our limited self and start interacting with others and more than
interaction, it actually describes whereabouts regarding our attitude, our
inner fears and emotional state when performing actions. Saturn when placed
here is not a simple phenomenon and should never be taken as just another
placement, rather it can be one of the
most binding or even most liberating experience in waiting for the
individual. Saturn afflicted or placed in weak state here shows an individual
who has to make many adjustments in context of his or her work and for such
person work and workplace can become exhausting experience. Such Saturn makes
one work extremely hard and at the back its desire of this planet to make one
gain the virtue of putting self-interest behind and work for the sake of work and not for the returns. This house is
intimately connected with one’s career, workplace and all aspects related to
it. Saturn here shows that you are born to learn to coexists and true to the
nature of Saturn, means can be thoroughly tiring, dry and even harsh at times
but it’s the lesson which matters the most. Saturn here imparts lessons about
interacting others with open mindedness ,if you really don’t like to give
attention to others and just wait for your turn to speak or act then this sixth house
placed Saturn will create adverse situations at workplace(or at any place where
you get a chance to mix with others, to experience duality) so that you
actually go through live scenarios where you would be made to listen, where you
would be made to pay attention ,where you would be made silent and would be
directed to pay holistic attention to details of work ,in terms of both quality and quantity.
This sixth house also deals with entanglements, mess(as it
seems on surface) and matters which can irritate and burn your energy rapidly. Saturn
acting on lower levels here shows tendency to get involved in useless matters
and if other placements of chart are not uplifting then it can show an
individual who loves to gossip, is interested in lives of others, in personal
matters of others ,feel happy in creating mess. Here Saturn is actually not to be
blamed and its real essence should be understood. This house is like dark deep
store house, neglected room in our house where enormous junk is lying since
ages .When Saturn is placed at birth time in this house and is weak and
afflicted then it means time has arrived to remove this clutter but as state of
Saturn is weak, it means manifestation can
come up in unpleasant and unconscious ways, where you do not seem to be in
full control, where things happen to you rather than you make it happen through
your strong intent. This Saturn throws one into mess, into mindless affairs
till one really feel exhausted, till the
point where futility becomes crystal clear, and then one reaches the point
from where transformation can begin .And that’s where comes the brilliance of
Saturn in sixth house which is endlessly praised in classics.
When Saturn begins to work on higher levels in sixth house, this
becomes the most powerful feature of chart. This is the state where one achieves
the perfection at work, where one learns to happily coexists with others, offer
him or herself delightfully in service of others. This is the situation when
service comes as pleasure and joy comes in serving others in giving joy to
others rather than asking it. Here Saturn can give endless physical as well as
mental stamina and these individuals can be literally powerhouse, working joyfully
and recharging themselves in very short span of time. Great healing capacity is
also received and when other placement fall supportive, then healers are born
under this placement as Saturn gives capacity to experience pain first and then
heal others through one’s real time knowledge and practical wisdom. The
greatest asset of this placement lies in potential to unleash the latent forces
hidden inside physical body. On generic levels this means desire to optimize routine,
working methods etc which manifest as interest in yoga ,Ayurveda, aerobics, exercise
of various sorts ,interest in knowing mind-body healing techniques and alike. On
higher levels of consciousness this means desire (and destiny) to unleash
psychic powers, going beyond visible limitations and invoking spiritual powers
which lie dormant in body. Saturn in sixth needs to be accepted and then given
a channelized direction, the wonders it can achieve are truly thrilling, but it
also needs one to accept the challenges on the way. Saturn placed in sixth house
of chart is truly one of the most enigmatic placement and can indicate giant leap
(and also crossing giant hurdles) in process of human evolution.
