6th house-The Astrological Sixth House

6th house-The Astrological Sixth House

The Sixth House is a bit like the ‘have to do basket’ that we keep putting off. Those chores, and daily bits and pieces that we have to do to keep our lives running (at home, work, or anywhere we spend a lot of our time), and all the ways we look after our bodies’ ailments (ie, exercise, physiotherapy). 6th house

The symbolism found in this house shows you what type of skills that you have and, because this house represents the environment within your daily life, the people you have to work with. Pets and small animals are also represented here because they are an extension of the environment that you interact with. 6th house

In a nutshell, this house represents responsibility, duty and health problems – we all have to learn about boundaries. So although this part of the birth chart is sometimes referred to as the house of health, in fact I think it would be more appropriate to think about it as the house that represents what type of illnesses an individual is prone to.

Following on from the Fifth House where you have no boundaries, are invincible and the world revolves around you (lol!) it’s only natural that reality (Sixth House) has to be faced sooner or later. This may be through the realisation that our bodies are not indestructible and that we do eventually have to grow up to some extent and face our responsibilities. 6th house

Through these processes we also learn how to balance our Fifth House desire to have fun with our Sixth House responsibilities.

As mentioned above, this part of your chart represents your routine, daily life – for many of us this also describes our working conditions.

For example, Venus in the Sixth House suggests that the individual has a natural flair for work that involves diplomacy, beauty, art, etc. Since Venus is the planet of love some people with this placement at birth may form a love relationship with a co-worker. The down side to this placement can be that the individual finds it hard to get motivated when it comes to the ‘not so pretty’ side of daily drudgery like cleaning the toilet, getting up early to go to work, etc.

Venus here also can symbolise health issues relating to the kidneys, urine, veins and the reproductive system in general.

In summary the symbolism shown in the Sixth House shows us what we type of work we are naturally good at, how we work with others, work at our responsibilities, and adjust to the boundaries that we face (even though they may be a little uncomfortable).

Tarsus - Ancient Tarsus in Asia Minor -Tarsus, Mersin, Turkey

Tarsus-Ancient Tarsus in Asia Minor Site of one of the oldest Middle East settlements, Tarsus played a prominent role in the histories of competing Near East and Mediterranean empires. Often overlooked in ancient history, the strategic city Tarsus, located in southern Asia Minor, may have been one of the first great “university towns.” Often associated with its “favorite son” Paul, the city was associated with a fair crop of ancient world notables. According the legend, Adam’s son, Seth, died in the region when it was a fourth millennium BC settlement. Fertile lands, a good port, and proximity to the roads connecting Asia Minor with Syria and Mesopotamia enabled Tarsus to prosper while escaping the fate of other great ancient cities during periods of competing conquests. From the Assyrians to the Romans Although it is agreed that Tarsus, as a city, was first established by the Assyrians in the 9th century BC, scholars conflict over which king was responsible. King Assurbanipal is given

American Comics Strips of the 1950s

american comic strips of the 1950s Mid-century and the rise of television saw the story strip give way to the humor feature in U.S. newspapers. Television had a greater influence on the newspaper comics business than any other development of the fifties.  At the decade’s start, 3.1 million American homes had a TV set.  This led to a newspaper-TV battle, which Editor & Publisher in 1951 called “a contest for the readers’ time in which no holds are barred.” Sudsy Solutions Also Read Were comic books popular in the 1950s? Some strips based on TV shows such as “Howdy Doody” and “I Love Lucy” were developed, but most of these were short-lived.  Publishers and editors instead focused on creating “alternatives” to broadcast entertainment.  The radio soap opera was replaced by realistically drawn comic strips about conventional people like doctors, lawyers, and judges.  This wave was led by Elliot Caplin and Stan Drake’s “The Heart of Juliet Jones” and Leonard Starr’s “On Stage.” Some of t

Aries and cancer compatibility - Aries woman and Cancer man

Aries and cancer compatibility When it comes to  Aries woman and Cancer man , it is balancing between the outgoing and extrovert nature of the former with the comfort loving and introvert characteristics of the latter. Both Aries and Cancer have great attraction for each other but to ensure the relation works perfectly for long time they have to work hard. Otherwise, the attraction would wane too soon leaving them poles apart from each other.  Aries woman  may find  Cancer man  a bit possessive and restraining and difficult to understand due to frequent mood swings. Problem point in the relationship is that while great understanding and adjustments are required, both of these partners are stubborn as well as inflexible in nature. If each of the two partners bends a little, the relationship could flourish into one of the best possible while if the two do not relinquish their stubborn obstinacy, the relationship could be damaged beyond repair. Success and failure of the relationshi p
