Moon, Saturn and Ketu in the 6th house at a glance
When Chandra + Shani + Ketu (Moon + Saturn + Ketu) share a sign, a yuti, the chart fuses Moon’s the mind, emotions and nurturing instinct, Saturn’s discipline, karma and hard-earned maturity and Ketu’s detachment, spirituality and liberation, 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).

Healing, defeating enemies through detachment, and skill in service, medicine and the occult; Ketu fights well without ego in this Upachaya house.
