Overview

The Seventh House sits directly opposite the First House across the chart's horizon, creating the fundamental axis of self versus other. This is the house of committed partnerships — marriage, business partners, and any relationship that involves a formal bond or contract. It also traditionally rules open enemies and legal opponents, because the Seventh House ultimately governs how you relate to the 'other' in all its forms. The sign on your Seventh House cusp describes what you seek in a partner, what you project onto others, and the qualities you must integrate to become whole.
