astrological houses

7th house

the 7th house sits across from the 1st, so it's about the other. it holds marriage, serious relationships, business partners and even open rivals. it shows what you look for in someone and what you tend to project onto them. planets here tend to come up through the people you choose.

what the houses are

the houses split your sky into 12 areas of life — body, money, home, love, work and so on. they're set by the exact time and place you were born, so two people born on the same day can have very different houses. a planet in a house shows where that energy tends to show up most.
