5th House
5th house is the house of progeny and the future of the native. How shall the native fare in the world can be known from his 5th house. About the welfare of children also we have to judge the same house. So long as Jupiter is in good position there shall be peace and prosperity. This means that Jupiter should be benefic by his placement and position in the annual progressed charts. If houses 6 and/or 10 are afflicted the articles connected with the planet inimical to the planet in 5th house should be kept under ground in the house. If 8th house is also afflicted the article should be kept under ground in the ancestral house. In case 5th house is occupied by Rahu and Saturn, Venus in 11th house, Ketu in 8th and Jupiter in the 10th house there shall be illness initially to the partner and thereafter the son is likely to suffer. For this malady loaves of bread or flour of the weight of the son should be given to dogs for 25 to 48 days. If house 4 or 4 or 9 is afflicted the planet in house 5 shall give bad results. The planets in houses 6 or 10 will also give bad results without any regard whether they are friends or foes of the planet in 5th house. Rahu and Ketu will influence results according to their placement in the chart.

Sun is the lord of this house. Jupiter is the Karaka graha or the natural significator planet for the house.

6th House
6th house is known as 'the hidden world, treasure house of mercy and providential help'. 6th house is ruled by Mercury and hence the planet in 6th house is likely to afflict the results of house occupied by Mercury, Ketu or Venus. 6th house is aspected by the planets in 2nd house and the 8th house through 2nd house. In such a case if Mercury or Rahu happen to be posited in house 6 there would be no bad effects of the malefics on the house because it is the house of exaltation for both of them. Ketu is the natural significator of the affairs of the house.

It has been said above the houses 2, 6 and 8 are mutually inter-connected with each other. While attempting and modification in any of the houses including the 6th house we have to keep in view all the three houses. If 6th house is unoccupied there shall be no transfer of the afflictions of 8th and 2nd houses. There shall also be no aspect from 6th house to 12th house. The obvious result would be that the planets in 2nd and 12th houses will get extra strength. To avail of this opportunity if houses 2 and 3 are occupied by benefics it would always be helpful to awaken house No. 6. This is possible by serving the maternal uncles (helping them) or serving the daughters of the daughter. Except Sun, Jupiter and Moon all the other planets in 6th house would be offering their own results. Mercury and Ketu will not offer good results till the age of the planet in house 6 or 8. The question of the ages of planets will be dealt with at its proper place.

Although the planets in 6th house are aspected by the planets in 2nd house, but the position would be reversed in the case of Saturn who will aspect 2nd house from 6th house.
