Saturn in seventh house

Saturn in seventh house at the time of birth can be one of the most restrictive or even most liberating configuration. Placement of Saturn in seventh house is very clear indicator for some strong lessons that need to be learned, it clearly shows that your present life will have enormous experiences where you will be required to come out of your comfort zone and adjust attitude to coexist. Seventh house is our indulgence apart from our self, with society, how we express our energies, how our interaction is with people around us. If first house defines who we are then seventh house indicates perhaps a mirror, the mirror of relationships through which we try to find ourselves by searching for our reflection in behavioral pattern of those connected to us.

Saturn is restrictive and directing force and its position in this house is critical and implies numerous meanings, which have to be seen in context of sign, ascendant and its relationship with other planets in chart. Still we can discuss the generic traits of this placement in somewhat details.

Saturn placed here in healthy state denotes authtorative and strong will and desire to lead. Such individuals are leaders and often spend lives for a purpose .If other supporting yogas are present then this placement can give sharp desire to live and die for a cause. Strong Saturn here shows independent nature and bold views, which at times will be rigid and not open to changes. Coming to one of the important areas of seventh house, Saturn here gives stern and differentiated views about others. There will be differentiation in mind and feeling of being separated, as being different from others. One can hold strong views and opinions and coexisting with others can be an issue. There could be friction in accepting what others feel and want to say and often Saturn here makes one live in world of own. Saturn’s nature is to restrict and block the free flow and main function of seventh house is to be playground for one’s energies, so placement of this Spiritual teacher hints at lessons that you need to learn in this life (through interaction with others using your mental/physical energies).

Not just the married life and sex, seventh house denotes something bigger, which is exchange of our energies with others. Saturn gives resistance in freely mixing with others and these individuals will feel reluctant in opening up. Not exactly shy or introverts, these people will feel the need to be at ease with thought process of others before they can start to share their views. Owing to upbringing or experiences encountered, their mind gets convinced of the fact that they are different from others and a certain time frame will be required before someone can intrude their personal zones. Hesitation in expressing their real views and emotions is often seen with this placement .In matters of marriage and personal relationships ,these people tend to become idealist and their expectation can be huge ,idealistic/very unconventional (depending on state of Saturn) and even can be termed as unrealistic in some cases. Saturn here often brings a difference between partners. Difference could be in terms of biological/psychological age, difference in outlooks leading to confrontation, difference in upbringing or even difference of nationality is possible. This difference and restrictive tendency of Saturn is what instills fear in mind when someone with this placement approaches marriage age.This placement need not to be feared, rather the one having Saturn here needs to be more allowing and open with respect to his or her partner,which will make sure that lesson of Saturn are really learnt.

In Spiritual sense this can be liberating placement, but not directly.This placement is indication of that you are needed to cultivate teachings given by Saturn on immediate basis, as here Saturn really doesn’t seem to be in causal state, rather it’s a position which shows that a Soul needs to learn something strong in less time. Saturn here can give intense detachment but experiences leading to final glory can be quite dramatic and strong, but needless to say Master Saturn is more concerned with the final outcome which ultimately is harmonious and make one forget torments bared on the way. This is the placement for a Soul to become very mature and ripened.
