Hence, this combination indicates that these natives are able to take advantage of their opponents or competitors in order to gain profits. In other words, they can relentlessly step on their competitors in order to prosper themselves further, and without any sense of guilt.

The 5th house as being a natural home of the fiery zodiac sign Leo, carries the significance of fame, authority, and reputation.

Besides that, the 5th belongs to the triangle of righteousness which reflects their ability to be virtuous. For this effect, the 6th ruler should be in good dignity in the 11th house.

It also indicates that natives with this combination become celebrated (11th significance) and well known in their field of activity mostly because of their intelligence, righteousness, and discipline.

On the contrary, if the combination is negatively formed, that is, the 6th ruler is weak and in bad dignity, it indicates a lack of purity in the soul, which causes a lack of righteousness and virtuous character traits. This also means that the native is selfishly cunning and able to take immoral or even illegal measures in order to benefit themselves.

This, of course, damages their reputation, name, and fame to a great extent as well. Eventually, it causes losses because of the increasing amount of enemies due to their false character.

Alternatively, this can also indicate that the native is involved in criminal activities with the members of the bad community through which the native gains, and then loses eventually.

With that being said, while most of the time they are disrespected by jealous friends, they never let these comments of degradation distract them. That makes them mentally very strong and durable. This makes them perfectly suitable for service that includes a hard and challenging environment where a lot of resistance to panic and pressure is required.
