What It Means

The 7th house rules marriage, partnership, contracts and open rivals, and Pluto rules power, passion, transformation and depth. Together they make relationships intense and fateful. You're drawn to strong, powerful, mysterious people, and the bond can feel almost destined. Relationships go through crises after which they either deepen or end. Control often becomes a theme: who leads, who decides, who depends on whom. You may project your own strength onto a partner and feel weaker beside them, or strive to dominate instead. In business partnerships you're a serious ally and a formidable rival. Through relationships you learn more about yourself than through anything else. The challenge is jealousy, power struggles, dependence on a partner and fear of betrayal. At its best, this placement gives a deep bond between two strong people who help each other grow.

Love and Relationships

In love you seek depth, passion and total devotion. A relationship with you changes both people. Work on jealousy and fear of loss, agree on equality and choose a partner beside whom you feel strong rather than dependent.

Work and Money

Consulting, law, negotiation, couples therapy, crisis management, partnership businesses and mergers and acquisitions suit you. You're strong wherever power and complex alliances are involved.

Generational or Personal?

Pluto's sign describes a generation, while the house tells your personal story. In the 7th house, especially near the Descendant, Pluto is experienced through your partners. Aspects to Venus and Mars make themes of passion and power especially vivid.

Strengths

  • Deep relationships
  • Strength in partnership
  • Transformation through relationships

Challenges

  • Power struggles in a couple
  • Jealousy
  • Dependence on a partner

Advice

Choose partners you can talk with as equals. Work on jealousy and fears with a therapist. And remember that a partnership's strength lies in trust, not control.
