Venus in the 6th House

Venus in the 6th House directs the planet's energy toward your work and health. The house tells you where the planet expresses itself; how it does so depends on the sign it occupies.

How Venus works in the 6th house

Venus is associated with pleasure in many areas, so your work needs to satisfy you. When you love the job, you approach it responsibly and try to do your share of a project conscientiously. If you dislike the work, its quality drops and progress slows.

Once you've settled into a new workplace, you try to create a comfortable atmosphere and surround yourself with pleasant little things. Some of your time goes toward connecting with coworkers through conversations, discussions, and flirting. You try to stay out of conflicts between colleagues, though, avoiding taking sides.

You're not inclined to push yourself to extremes, so overwork isn't a threat. With naturally limited stamina, you try to keep an eye on your physical condition. Sometimes, however, your appearance matters much more to you than your health.

Venus in the 6th house gives you an excessive sweet tooth, which can affect your weight.

What the 6th house governs

The 6th house in your birth chart governs work, workplace relationships, and health. It describes your relationships with employees, colleagues, and bosses, as well as your place on the team: how much you're valued and respected, and so on. The sixth house has another meaning, too: it reveals your predisposition to illness and recommends a particular lifestyle or the diet you need.

What Venus represents

Venus's zodiac sign in your birth chart governs your affections, feelings of love and tenderness, sense of harmony, and attraction to beauty. Venus rules close relationships with relatives, friends, and loved ones, as well as everything you hold dear, whether that's people, a way of life, hobbies, or something else.
