INSIDE: The Seventh House in Astrology is one of the four angular houses that represent the base of every natal chart. Read on to discover how the 7th house affects your natal placements, which influence your one-on-one connections and your love life.
Attraction is greatly impacted by conscious and subconscious beliefs, needs, and urges, as well as learned behaviors and conditioning. According to Psychology Today, everyone has a relationship pattern that makes them choose similar types of partners.
We all have a “type” of people we are most attracted to. Astrology can show us what those patterns are, illuminate conscious and unconscious patterns, and offer us guidance for finding the right partners. It can help us better understand our blockages to find long-lasting love, and most importantly, better understand ourselves and our needs.
Here’s what you need to know about the Seventh House in Astrology…
The Meaning & Symbolism of the 7th House in Astrology
While the first astrological house represents ourselves, its opposing house, the Seventh, represents other people. While the Ascendant sign or ASC represents how we show up in the world, the DC, or Descendant, which is found in the 7th house, represents how others approach us and what we attract.
It is most known as the house of marriage and partnerships, and it is the first place to look at when answering questions about love and relationships. While the fifth house represents our lovers and flirting, the seventh house is much more serious than that. It is about real commitment and official relationships.
Being one of the angular houses, the seventh house plays a huge role in how we navigate life. It governs everyone we interact with, one-on-one. This includes not only romantic partnerships and legal marriages, but also business partnerships, and our biggest allies.
Analyzing this house can give us a deep insight into what types of relationships we tend to find ourselves in and reveal details about marriage partners, and the type of people we usually perceive as relationship material. It can reveal important details about common relationship patterns and the role that other people have in our lives.
However, being the house that opposes the house of ourselves and our identity, it also governs our enemies and foes. As such, it is also closely associated with legal matters, signing papers, and important contracts.
