subject: The Significance Of The 7th Ruler On The 12 House Of Zodiacs [print this page] The 7th ruler of the house is the major indicator of the choice of partners and the way your relationships evolve. It is also known as the Descendant wherein it is the point directly opposite or 180 degrees away from the ascendant. It is refers to partners or relationships. It is ruled by the 7th sign of the zodiac Libra and its ruler planet, Venus. As most astrologers believe, this is the sign or horoscopes of the people you are the most attracted by, you easily get along with and you are most likely to start a love relationship with through the help by other zodiacal aspects.
According to astrology, every zodiac sign is ruled by a planet or a Light (the Sun and the Moon). It is understandable that the planet or Light that rules the zodiac sign also rules the house cusp falls in a certain zodiac sign. So if Capricorn is on the 2nd house cusp, Saturn rules the 2nd house merely because it also rules Capricorn.
Nowadays, most of us are convinced that the modern rulers do work but we also found the co-rulers to work also in some instances. There may be a difference between day and night births as far as our research stands and it is not yet conclusive though.
To help you understand astrology more, a day birth is seen from the birth chart when the Sun lives in the house above the horizon (7 to 12) while a night birth is visible for the birth chart when the lives in a house below the horizon (1 to 6). In our point of view, astrological research should take this difference into account.
The 7th ruler on the 12 zodiac signs modifies the way you approach relationships. The keywords can be mixed up to come up with a composite that describe the characteristics or traits you seek for in a relationship. The Descendant sign and any planets close to it, describe not only our future partners but also how we act in our relationships and what we need to be happy in a relationship.
You will also need to include the signs the follow the Descendant sign in the 7th house and so with the other planets that lie in the 7th house in your interpretation. It is recommended to start with sign on the Descendant first to weigh each of the factors carefully. Get a good feel for its meaning and gradually mix with the other factors after. It is said to be ideal for your mate to have personal planets such Sun, Mercury, Venus, Moon, Mars or Ascendant in your Rising or Setting sign. It is significant if the other persons planet or Ascendant is close to your exact Ascendant/Descendant degree.
To see a marriage or close relationship is rarely seen for a significant period of time without at least seeing these contacts. It is of course understood that you want your future mate to embody least some of the qualities symbolized by Descendants and Ascendants in your chart.
