Vertex in the 7th house

The Vertex is a mathematical point in the chart of the native, always located at the right-hand side of his chart. It is the intersection of the ecliptic and the prime vertical, and astrologers tend to argue whether it is very important or not at all. The exact opposite point is called anti-vertex, but most astrology researchers tend to not pay attention to it.

As an astrological point, it is connected with karma and fate, and it functions when triggered by planet transits. The transiting aspect that is mostly to be observed is the conjunction, and slow moving planets are the ones that will mainly influence the native’s life. The Vertex is also widely used in synastry charts, as it is responsible for major changes, especially in relationships, births, and deaths of people – while also in important business partnership beginnings or endings. This can be easily explained by the fact that the Vertex is always located somewhere between the 5th and the 8th house, which are responsible for such kind of issues.

With a Vertex in the 7th house, an important transit can bring a karmic marriage, business partnership, or both. A karmic union is very probable to come if the Vertex conjuncts the significant other’s Ascendant or Sun, and planets like Jupiter, Uranus or even Pluto aspect the spot by transit. Of course for positive events, the responsible aspects are trines and sextiles, while the squares and oppositions tend to bring difficulties. Conjunctions strongly depend on the planet that transits and can manifest either positively or negatively. In addition, they are the most responsible ones for radical changes in 7th house matters.

The nature of events triggered also depends on existing aspects of the Vertex to other natal planets. Naturally, a well-aspected Vertex will act beneficially when in conjunction with a transiting planet, while an ill-aspected one will bring turbulence. Also, keep in mind that a Vertex that is natally in conjunction with any planet is far more potent than an unaspected one. In case your Vertex was not powerfully aspected at the time of your birth, it might not even pose an important role in your chart. Only transiting conjunctions of slow moving planets, especially Uranus and Pluto will then trigger some events.

In any case, the Vertex is connected with people that become very personal to us; on the other hand, it does not guarantee the blissfulness of the relation. When a Moon’s Node is also present in some way, the relationship can be considered extremely karmic, and generally, there is no easy way of escaping from the people that Vertex is allowing to enter in the native’s life. What the Vertex brings is rather uncontrolled, and has to happen so that both parts learn their lessons and progress. So, be careful what you wish for.

People with their Vertex in the 7th house will observe that many times, they simply cannot exist without being in a deep relationship. They crave for union and despise being on their own. Marriage can be their ultimate life goal and they will feel rather insecure without a partner. The same applies in their career; they will always prefer to share their path with a stable business partner. That is why Vertex in the 7th house can influence them to try to establish a business together with their significant other. Moreover, if they already have a business relationship with someone, they will probably upgrade their relations to an intimate level.

In case that natal Jupiter or Venus is in conjunction with the Vertex, marriage can bring tremendous happiness and it is an indicator of great luck in partnerships. Even if the planet is just in the same house without any aspect to the point, this life area is strongly empowered. On the contrary, Saturn, Mars or Pluto can be of a destructive nature concerning marriage. Saturn in conjunction with the Vertex can generate a strong thirst of finding the right person for unifying, without being able to find him for many years (if ever). Thus, solitude can become a real issue. Mars and Pluto can bring difficult bonding towards ill-tempered people, and marital life can involve quite a lot of suffering. Of course, many more parameters have to be taken into consideration, such as the condition of those planets and aspects.

Vertex can fulfill wishes – but who guarantees that what we wish is what we indeed need? It should not be taken lightly, as it can bring you something permanently that was either not clearly wished, or that you have since changed your mind about. The difficult thing actually is to let go the Vertex person that arrives, his weird presence can persist in a paradoxical way – for months years or more. There are definitely issues to be resolved between you, and the best thing is to establish a good communication, think out of the box and understand what are your real needs, who is your real You, and whether your wishes brought you what you want. The opposite is not to be afraid of. In any case, be open towards whatever the Vertex brings – after all, the most likely to happen is that you won’t manage to resist it!
