This area of the chart begins with an important point called the Descendant, which is the sign on the cusp of the 7th house. It is the sign that, like the sunset, was setting in the west at the time of birth. It is found at 3 o'clock on the zodiac wheel.
The First House is about Identity, and across the wheel, whereas the 5th house governs romance and love affairs, the seventh house is about the deep commitment of love. It also shows what you need in a relationship and partner. It is an angular house. Its natural sign ruler is Libra and its natural planetary ruler is Venus.
The seventh house denotes marriage, wife or husband, trade or business, buying and selling, partnership, short journey, sexual act, bladder, lost property etc.
The 7th house is where you meet your mate. The Descendant is always opposite your Ascendant and while the Ascendant indicates your personality projection, the Descendant represents the part of your psyche that you most comfortably project onto your partner.
Consequently, the Descendant indicates qualities in a partner you’ll be most attracted to for any committed love and sexual relationship. You can easily find out what sign is on your 7th house cusp once you know your Ascendant since it will always be the sign opposite your Ascendant. Read on to discover what the sign on your 7th house cusp will tell you about your ultimate relationship potential.
Do you find it easy to pair up, or are you more of a singleton? Is your love life a tragic one, or are you lucky in love? Will you marry many times, or just once? Will it be a happy marriage, or a tumultuous one, or both? Like the Love Line on your palm, this house has clues to what lessons you'll encounter.
The seventh house is where you'll find insight on relationships. It's traditionally called the house of marriage. But it defines how you pair up, whether it's in love, friendship or business partnerships.
Serious committed relationships are found in the seventh house. Your spouse, Companionship, the alter ego, partnerships, marriage, the first marriage, the "significant other", competitors, our "shadow self", lawyers, mediators, counselors, contracts, contractual partnerships, one-on-one relationships, business partnerships including verbal commitments, rivals, justice, law, opponents (adversaries) are included in this house.
The house is associated with intimate relationships, dealings with the public, cooperation, equality, awareness of our own identity, agreements and a desire to share close one-on-one interactions.
With this house, we see a shift away from the self toward another -- a partner. By cooperating with and relating to another we unite for the purpose of achieving something. Purpose is important to the Seventh House -- the act of accomplishing something great or small for the self, the partnership and even society as a whole. In uniting with another, we also become a more valuable member of our world: we make a contribution, one small cog in the wheel of life. We have purpose. Cooperation and partnership help to expedite our purpose in life.
Through a partnership, we fill out our essential being. Suddenly, we see ourselves in context. Through a partnership in which we work, play, love and/or create, we are fully formed and completed. The other half helps to make us whole. Ultimately, how we relate to others will help to define the success we have as a human being and as a member of humankind.
The Seventh House shows us that partnerships can take many forms: marriage, business relationships, contracts, legalities, negotiations and agreements. We will cooperate to a greater or lesser extent in these varied partnerships. The quality of that cooperation, in essence how we relate to the other, is key to the Seventh House. Why do we choose this partnership? Is it for love or money? Practical reasons? Social considerations? There are many reasons for uniting with another. We may choose to fill voids we see in ourselves. We may simply want the company and companionship of another. The partnerships we form say a great deal about ourselves and also serve to teach us much. This house wants us to know that the quality of our partnerships will enhance our lives, make them fuller, more special and better for everyone.
The seventh house holds clues to all important one-on-one ties, and that includes enemies and arch rivals. The many hues of relating, from harmony to life-or-death power struggles are expressed in the seventh house.
It has a particularly strong emphasis on our social side, focusing on putting the energies we put into the first house back into ourselves. The seventh house aims to bring about greater self awareness of our personal identity, seeing us seek projected parts of ourselves in our most intimate relationships.
It is through this that we are challenged to develop deep, committed relationships with others – with Libra most strongly influencing this. Planets located in this house determine our dealings with other people, influencing how we relate to others, what we value in relationships and what we expect from others.
If the 7th bhava and its lord is associated with or aspected by a benefic planet the wife or the husband as the case may be will be beautiful to look at, their physical structure may be charming and the native's relation with his (or her) father-in-law may be cordial and domestic environment may be peaceful. All the rules of judging a horoscope are applicable also in case of this bhava.
In case of a male Sukra, and in case of a female native both Sukra and Mangal signify the 7th bhava i.e. husband or wife. Therefore in judging the 7th bhava disposition of Sukra (in case of a male) or Sukra and Mangal (in case of a female) and the 7th house from these planets and their lords are to be taken into consideration.
If they are well-disposed, acquires favorable Vargas or conjoined with or aspected by benefic planets the native's conjugal life will be happy. The husband's and wife's natal houses are thus interrelated and have to be judged in conjunction with each other. The status, family, health, wealth, education etc. of the husband and the wife are mirrored in the first and the seventh. If any of them is governed or aspected by an evil planet the disparities and afflictions should follow. Favorably governed and favorably aspected the results would be happy.
Tensions within a partnership also serve to teach us lessons. For this reason, the Seventh House also focuses on the darker side of our unions. Divorce, lawsuits and treaties all fall within this house. At its worst, a partnership may create enemies -- and on a more global scale, these rifts can deteriorate into war. It is our reaction to this adversity which will shape the partnerships yet to come.
The seventh house shows whether you're apt to partner up in business, or go it alone. An energized seventh house (Sun or Mars) makes it likely that working as a duo gets you farther faster. Jupiter in the house of partnerships is auspicious for tandem ventures, and ups the chances for financial rewards.
Difficult aspects to, or karmic lessons (Pluto, Saturn) in the seventh turns relationships into a crucible....where what's gained is deeply transformative in the end. If love hurts, see if you don't deserve extra points for high degree of difficulty. Those with major seventh house lessons emerge knowing that love's shadows are also expressions of the soul, and part of true intimacy.
