The 7th Lord in Each of the Twelve Houses

Houses here are whole signs: the ascendant’s sign is the 1st house, the next sign the 2nd, and so on round the zodiac. The 7th lord is the graha that rules the sign falling in the 7th, so it changes with the ascendant — Venus for Aries, Mars for Taurus, Jupiter for Gemini, Saturn for Cancer, Saturn for Leo, Jupiter for Virgo, Mars for Libra, Venus for Scorpio, Mercury for Sagittarius, Moon for Capricorn, Sun for Aquarius and Mercury for Pisces. In the Parashari method a bhava lord carries the matters of its house to wherever it sits; for the 7th those matters are spouse or partner, marriage, business partnerships and public relations.

Each page below takes one placement and works it out for all twelve ascendants: which graha, which sign it lands in, and its dignity there. None of them is a forecast. A placement is one factor; the graha’s aspects, its dispositor and the running dasha decide what it comes to in a chart.

The 7th house itself, with the grahas that occupy it, is on the 7th house page; every lord in every house is on the lordship index, and the method on the 12 houses guide.
