The birth chart is a blueprint of the sky at the moment of your birth. Sounds extraordinary?
Well, it rather is!
Each of the nine planets in Vedic astrology exists within a House (Bhava) in your birth chart (Kundli). Apart from providing invaluable insights about your personality, the placement of the planets illustrates how you are connected and how you coexist with the world around you. Moreover, the 12 Houses in your Kundli are a roadmap of your past, present and future. As the planets in the sky move across these houses, all sorts of events are triggered in your life — both tangible and emotional.
Every house in the horoscope carries a unique meaning and represents a specific area of life.Indeed, the twelve houses are truly what makes astrology so spectacular. How these houses work is fairly complex, but we will make it easy for you to understand what the 7th house in
Kundli is all about.
The 7th House is considered the House of Partnerships, marriage being the most important of them all. It is also called the House of Marriage. All the previous houses (1 st to 6 th ) were focused on self and individual. But now the focus shifts from ‘self’ to ‘others’,which involves partnerships. Everything related to marriage is ruled by this house.
The position of planets in the 7th House in Kundli governs attraction for the opposite sex,desire to have a partner, sexual fantasies, commitment, passion and possessiveness. This house reveals why you indulge in a relationship -- is it for love, money, practical reasons,social pressure or to fill a void in your life? It also indicates your progeny.
The 7th House (also House of Descendant) is the exact opposite of 1st House (also House of Ascendant). Together they complement each other. The 7th House represents what you are looking for.
The House of Descendant (7th House) sits directly across the House of Ascendant (1st House). While the 1st house indicates longevity, the 7th house opposes and poses a threat to longevity.
