6th House and 6th Lord

Dear Group,

6th house is considered the most malefic house and Guru ji has correctly referred to it akin to a BLACK HOLE. Therefore its lord is the most malefic planet. This is the basic.


Now, 6th House is House C for 2nd, House E for 1st, House D for 9th, House B for 6th and House A for 11th.


As per some Vedic Texts, 3rd, 6th and 11th are said as bad. As per our system, 3rd and 11th are house D and House E for 6th as B. Therefore they are UPCHAY means the house of growth, heap and prosperity of 6th house.


If one has patience and go though the KAS Program and Sheets H1 to H12 in the Worksheets, and study how its designed, so many things will get clear.


Now, that we have established that 6th house is the worst, therefore planets that go into 6th house are like they are going into a black hole where they loose their property or its spoilt.


The opposite of most malefic i.e. 6th house would become the MOST BENEFIC house as 1:7 are opposite and just as debilitation signs are opposite exaltation signs, the opposite of the worst house is the most benefic house which is the 12th house. Therefore planets that go into the 12th house the results denoted by those house get enhanced and the house where the 12th lord goes and sits, it enhances the result of that house.


The Planets going into 6th house, get spoilt and the place where 6th lord goes and sits, it spoils the result of that house.

Now that we know that 6th lord is most malefic planet then, we can then talk of samdharmi. Sam – dharma means similar duty. When planets become samdharmi then they perform similar duty.


Therefore when planets conjoin the 6th lord or become samdharmi to it i.e. refer to the lessons on how planets become SD’s, then they will perform similar duty. Which means that those planets that conjoin the 6th lord will also get the property of 6th lord thereby getting spoilt.


Now, if LoD and LoE which are special, and they are eager planets to give the timing of event, if they become SD to 6th lord then these planets get tainted and cannot give good results or they will give timing but it will not be good due to getting property of 6th lord as its SD to it so it will also perform the duty of 6th lord.


In the same way, if the KARAK planet which is the most important planet, and by that I mean it controls the status of House B, so if that main planet who controls the status of House B is related to 6th lord then it will spoilt the quality of House B or if 6th lord goes and sits in the house of karak or karak sthan then too it will spoil the result of the house so karak sthan gets spoilt or if its SD to KARAK sthans lord i.e. Karak.


Now we talk of Aspect.


The power given by the 6th lord is not good. We use KAS for benefit of Humanity so we only see the GOOD power or the POWER that it gets to doing GOOD.


If 6th lord has less than 4 bindus, then it will aspect by benefic dristi or in other words if it aspects any planet or House, it will ADD that power. Now THAT POWER THAT IT ADDS is NOT GOOD POWER. So that is why we do not add that power in the WS. On the contrary we take out double the power for QUALITY to judge that.


For timing of event, we do not add that power.


Similalry, if 6th lord is in 4th place (in 4:10) so as per our laws, in general we say that the


SUBORDINATE is noble so it will give full assistance to the Boss, but here the SUBORDINATE IS 6TH LORD who is malefic so that will not HELP the boss, but on the contrary that will oppose the boss and that is why we do not ADD the power as we know that 6th lord aint gonna help, on the contrary it will spoil.


Now lets talk of 6th lord placed and its power in SAV.

If 6th lord is placed with more than 4 bindus, means 6th lord has got more support from other planets so its like a BAD CHAP being supported by many people. That will make the 6th lord more confident to do more harm as it gets support and backing from other chaps (planets). So 6th lord placed in any house (remove the exceptions that I gave initially) it will spoil the house its in and also, its aspect will be malefic. More the power, the harsher will be the aspect and more it will spoil the house it is placed in.


So again, if its placed in House D or E or A then its disturbs the main house of timing and also Karak sthan which is most important.


Lastly, 6th lord placed in 6th house with more bindus and if 6th lord is natural malefic then that becomes good. As here a Natural Malefic in a natural bad house will make the planet positive i.e. –ve * -ve = +ve.


So a natural malefic, by being placed in 6th house with more than 4 bindus, then for QUALITY we reverse the points i..e in short, we take the benefic aspect as its now become good. So it will not spoil the house, but infact it will add good power. This is the exception.


Yes, Sun and Moon CAN NEVER BECOME 6TH LORD. They are special.


For dual signs i.e. in all cases apart from sun and moon , they planet will also own another house. So one has to judge carefully before predicting the final result.


Please do not forget that 6th House is House C for 2nd house, B for 6th, D for 9th, E for 1st and A for 11th. For these house, it is not bad as its upchay lord. So please use proper logic and approach.


I hope that this post helps.
