Jupiter in the 6th house of the solar return

Jupiter in the 6th house of the solar return makes the year a working and demanding one: many duties, but also a chance to resolve difficult questions wisely.

The sixth house of the annual chart describes work, service, debts, rivals and health. Jupiter here helps one to serve, heal, teach and settle disputes. Things go well in medicine, law, the social sphere and teaching those who need help. Conflicts at work are resolved through negotiation and mediation rather than confrontation; rivals may become allies.

The placement is considered less favourable for Jupiter: debts out of generosity and overwork are possible. It is worth practising moderation.

What the result depends on

A strong Jupiter in the solar return helps settle disputes; an afflicted one calls for attention to financial obligations. The solar return is cast for the moment the Sun returns to its natal sidereal degree and acts for a year, so the house Jupiter occupies in the birth chart matters: the annual placement only awakens what was laid down at birth (see the overview of the varshaphala).

The natal side of the topic is covered in the article Jupiter in the 6th house, the general meanings of the house in the 6th house of the horoscope. You can cast your own chart on the home page of the site.
