Seventh House (The Descendant)

The Seventh House begins at the Descendant — the point directly opposite the Ascendant — and governs one-on-one partnerships, marriage, committed relationships, contracts, open enemies, and the "other" in your life. It describes what you seek in a partner, how you relate in committed bonds, and the qualities you project onto others. The sign on the Seventh House cusp and any planets within it reveal your partnership style and the type of people you attract. The Seventh House is associated with Libra and Venus in the natural zodiac. A prominent Seventh House suggests a life defined by significant relationships and the lessons they bring. Transits to the Seventh House often coincide with marriages, business partnerships, legal matters, and confrontations with others who mirror your own qualities.
