With the Moon in the 6th house there’s an immense hunger for importance, for rewarding work and assistance.
There’s a good potential for hard work; however, unless other placements and aspects demonstrate it, these individuals aren’t frequently self-starters.

Unless other natal chart variables signify the opposite, they might lack the self-confidence to operate by themselves, setting their own criteria.

Therefore, they frequently end up working for non-profits, volunteering in charity associations, or perhaps entering religious orders.
