Moon and Saturn in the 6th house at a glance
When Chandra + Shani (Moon + Saturn) share a sign, a yuti, the chart fuses Moon’s the mind, emotions and nurturing instinct and Saturn’s discipline, karma and hard-earned maturity, and here all of it works through the 6th house (Ari / Shatru), the house of health, service, competition and the obstacles you overcome (Dusthana (difficult), Upachaya (growing); natural sign Virgo). This combination also forms the named Vish Yoga (explained below).
Each graha in the 6th house
Chandra (Moon) in the 6th houseBenefic (waxing) / Malefic (waning)
The mind pays a price: worry, emotional stress and digestive or health sensitivity; capable in service and healing, but peace is hard-won.
Shani (Saturn) in the 6th houseMalefic
A superb seat: it defeats enemies and clears debts and disease through persistence and excels in service, labour and law; Saturn loves this fight.
Where each is strong or weak by sign:
| Graha | Nature | Own sign | Exalted (uchcha) | Debilitated (neecha) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chandra (Moon) | Benefic (waxing) / Malefic (waning) | Cancer | Taurus | Scorpio |
| Shani (Saturn) | Malefic | Capricorn, Aquarius | Libra | Aries |
