Seventh House

What does the 7th house mean in astrology? Also called the Descendant, the seventh house sits directly opposite the Ascendant and covers all one-on-one partnerships: marriage, business deals, and binding contracts. It reveals the qualities you look for in a partner and often the traits you project onto others. Open enemies, lawsuits, and negotiations belong here too. Understanding your 7th house clarifies your relationship patterns and what you need to feel balanced with another person.
