For natal chart reading, I use the Whole Sign House System-the most ancient one-not Placidus. However, the charts I uploaded are in Placidus House Calculation System. It can be confusing, mind you.
I use the meaning of the degrees as additional information for the natal chart reading.
So, let’s look at some real-life examples of the meaning of the 6th degree in astrology.
Please note that these examples are very brief interpretations. To fully understand a particular planetary position, one must check more details.
Sun at 6th degree in the natal chart
Sun is the primary career indicator in the natal chart. The Sun shows the center stage position for the native, as the Sun has a center stage position in our solar system, where it shines brightly.
When it is at the 6th degree, the native’s career is connected to service.
Arnold Schwarzenegger has his Sun at the 6th degree, in the 2nd house in Leo.
That is a very powerful position for Sun, as it is its own sign. Sun in Leo
Schwarzenegger succeeded in different career fields, such as being a professional bodybuilder -standing on a stage is also Leo-related- and as a Hollywood movie star. However, the career success he is most known for is being the governor of California.
Sun at the 6th degree indicates a career in public service of sorts. The Zodiac Sign Leo shows that the native is a top leader.
Also, his first career as a professional bodybuilder is also connected to the Virgo domains- 6th degree as it is all about having a strict diet, daily routine, workout routine, health, etc.
What shows success in the movie industry? Well, many actors and actresses have the Sun in their 2nd house, as the 2nd house rules the face, and their work is connected to their face mostly.

Ascendant at the 6th degree
Ascendant is the point of the incarnation. It also speaks about the body of the native, the appearance, and how the native looks. And most importantly, the path the native walks in this lifetime.
Nicole Kidman has her Ascendant in Scorpio at the 6th degree.
Even though she is a Scorpio rising- she always had that mysterious, sexy look, and she also has that innocent, young girl look. The typical Virgo look.
She appears as a serious woman who strives for perfection while having that Virgo-ish vulnerable look.
Well, her Ascendant at the 6th degree is not only about the look.
She is not only a movie star; she has supported numerous charities, an ambassador of Unicef for three decades. But, these days probably, she is known more for her humanitarian service or achievements– which are also Virgo-related.
The Moon at 6th degree
The moon shows the qualities of the mother or the primary caretaker.
The mother of the person might be a Virgo or has Virgo qualities or worked in a Virgo-ruled career field- such as a doctor, engineer, public service, health care, cleaner, or worked with animals.
It can indicate a critical mother too.
Another possible scenario is that as Moon shows our inner dialogue, the natives might be way too critical of themselves.

Mercury at 6th degree
Mercury is writing, communicating, driving, etc.
Johnny Cash was a singer and songwriter. He had his Mercury – to write – in Pisces- Zodiac Sign associated with music. His Mercury was at the 6th degree- to work, to make a work out of that planetary position.
He wrote songs mostly about Virgo domains- again 6th degree- sorrow, difficulties in life.
And his Sun- the primary career indicator- was in conjunction with Mercury in Pisces at the 6th degree. Therefore, his career -Sun- was connected to communicating with the masses and writing. Through his songs, he could communicate with the world.
Also, his Venus in the 2nd house gave him such a beautiful voice.
Venus at 6th degree
Planet of love, beauty, relationships, and finances. And 6th degree carries the qualities of Virgo, such as criticism, budgeting, analyzing, and measuring. In other words, superficiality meets criticism.

On a side note, many supermodels have Virgo Venus, such as Cara Delevingne, Barbara Palvin, Kim Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner. Probably they are criticized for their look, even though they have a picture-perfect look and make a fortune with that.
According to the Whole Sign House System, Bella Hadid has Venus in Virgo at the 6th degree in the first house.
For Bella Hadid, Venus is her 2nd house ruler in the 1st house. In other words, the 2nd house shows what you spend money on, and the 1st house is the body. Probably she spends money on her looks, beautifying herself, but hey, she is an A-list supermodel so she makes a fortune with that.
About the 6th degree. She works- 6th degree– in a Venus-ruled industry, in the fashion industry. As it is connected to Virgo, most probably, she is being criticized for her look or she does it to herself.
