DAY 6 | Health, Body & Vitality
ASTROLOGY + TAROT
Together, these tools support the deeper work of yoga: becoming aware of conditioning so it can soften, release, and transform.
SPOTLIGHT ON: THE 6TH HOUSE
The 6th House is the place of health, daily care, and embodied wellbeing. In astrology, it reflects how we tend to the body through routine, rhythm, and practical choices, as well as how work, service, and responsibility impact our vitality. The 6th House speaks to health not as an ideal state to achieve, but as an ongoing practice shaped by attention, consistency, and care.
The 6th House is closely connected to the conditions and patterns that shape our relationship to effort, duty, and maintenance. It reflects early experiences around being useful, helping, or having to manage stress or responsibility, and how these experiences influence the nervous system and body over time. These imprints quietly inform how we respond to pressure, rest, illness, and the balance between giving and replenishing energy.
Everyone has a unique astrological natal chart, and within it a 6th House that describes how health, work, and daily life are experienced. It can point to habits that support or deplete vitality, the kinds of routines the body responds best to, and where care needs to be more intentional. You can use your 6th House placement or Sun sign for the reflections below.
Aries relates to the body through action, movement, and momentum. Vitality grows when energy has somewhere to go, but burnout comes when rest is ignored. The karmic lesson is learning that strength is sustained through pacing, not constant push. Health improves when courage includes listening to the body’s limits.
ARIES
Taurus experiences health through the senses and the physical world. The body thrives on consistency, nourishment, and comfort. The karmic lesson lies in recognising when holding on becomes stagnation. Vitality grows when pleasure and care are balanced with gentle change.
Taurus
Gemini’s health is closely tied to the nervous system and mental stimulation. The body responds quickly to stress, information, and environment. The karmic lesson is learning to slow the mind so the body can settle. Vitality increases when breath, rhythm, and simplicity are prioritised.
Gemini
Cancer’s body is deeply influenced by emotional states and sense of safety. Health fluctuates when feelings are held in rather than expressed. The karmic lesson is learning to tend emotional needs without overprotecting or withdrawing. Vitality grows when care is mutual, not one directional.
Cancer
Leo experiences vitality through joy, creativity, and self expression. The body thrives when life feels meaningful and heart led. The karmic lesson is recognising when performance replaces genuine nourishment. Health strengthens when rest and play are given equal value.
Leo
Virgo has a strong connection to health, routine, and bodily awareness. The body responds well to structure, cleanliness, and mindful care. The karmic lesson is releasing perfection as a requirement for wellbeing. Vitality grows when compassion is included in daily practice.

Libra’s health is shaped by balance and relational harmony. The body often mirrors emotional equilibrium or imbalance in relationships. The karmic lesson is learning not to sacrifice personal wellbeing to keep peace. Vitality strengthens when needs are honoured alongside others.
Libra
Scorpio relates to the body through intensity, depth, and transformation. Health can be affected by suppressed emotions or prolonged stress. The karmic lesson is allowing release rather than holding everything internally. Vitality returns when the body is given space to purge, rest, and regenerate.
Scorpio
Sagittarius experiences health through movement, freedom, and expansion. The body thrives with variety, travel, and inspiration. The karmic lesson is recognising when excess leads to depletion. Vitality grows when freedom is grounded in sustainable rhythms.
Sagittarius
Capricorn’s body carries responsibility, endurance, and long term effort. Health issues may arise when pressure is internalised for too long. The karmic lesson is learning that rest is productive, not indulgent. Vitality strengthens when structure includes softness and care.
Capricorn
Aquarius relates to health through the nervous system and collective influence. The body is sensitive to overstimulation and disconnection from rhythm. The karmic lesson is grounding ideas into physical reality. Vitality grows when the body is included in vision, not bypassed.
Aquarius
Pisces experiences health through sensitivity and energetic permeability. The body easily absorbs emotional and environmental influences. The karmic lesson is learning to create boundaries that protect vitality. Health improves when rest, solitude, and gentle practices are honoured consistently.

TAROT
3 CARD SPREAD
Use this card spread as inspiration for reflection on 2026. If you don’t have a tarot deck you can use oracle cards or any other kind of deck.
You could also use the themes simply for reflection or journaling.
Rather than thinking of the cards as being a prediction of what’s to come- or a definitive outcome, bring a softer energy in. Bring the intention of the cards showing lessons to uncover, inspiration for change or conditioning you can work at moving through.
SIAN’S PULL FOR THE COLLECTIVE
The Star - The Marseille Deck
Another deeply feminine card pull from Sian for this year- the woman in the star is naked, her glorious body without anything to hide or feel shame in. She is full, fertile, connected to the earth, like the breast-feeding mother. She is also attuned to the cosmos, kneeling in honouring to both the waters below & the mysteries above. She knows exactly how to nourish and she symbolizes generous action.
