♀ Venus in House VII - Marriage & Relationship
Bhrigu Sutras
Venus in the Seventh House
Sutras 37-44-If Venus is in the seventh house, the native will be fond of kissing on the mouth and will be highly sexed. He will be wealthy and will take interest in women other than his wife. He will possess conveyances, will be efficient in his work, will play foul with women and will have a family consisting of brothers and wife etc. If Venus is associated with a malefic or is in the house of a malefic or in his sign of debilitation (Virgo) there will be loss of his wife but he will marry again. If there are many malefics with Venus, the native will have to marry many times on account of successive loss of his wives. In this situation the native will have no children. If Venus is associated with a benefic or in his own or in his sign of exaltation (Pisces) the native will become very wealthy on account of gift of wealth by his in-laws. He will be very influential with the help of his wife and will be surrounded by women.
Comments-Venus is a planet of emotion, passion and love. These are the significations of the 7th house also. When Venus is in the 7th, the native becomes highly sexed and has therefore many love affairs. Venus aspects the ascendant from the 7th house. The native therefore will become very attractive for women. He will also be wealthy and will possess all comforts of life including conveyances. If Venus is afflicted he has to suffer loss of his wife and may have to marry more than once. A dignified Venus brings wealth for the native from his wife's parents. He becomes a favourite of women and is always surrounded by them. We, however, feel that if Venus is aspected by or associated with Jupiter both the native and his wife will be very chaste and will enjoy a very happy married life. In the seventh house Venus will be in Kendra to the ascendant. The disposition of Venus in his sign or in his sign of exaltation will give rise to Malavya yoga, the effects of which have already been described earlier in this chapter.

Note-In essence all the above authorities agree with Bhrigu Sutras about the effect of Venus in the seventh house. Saravali however does not consider that the native will have contact with many women, but Bhrigu Sutras have dealt with the matter in more detail taking into account the different dispositions of Venus in the seventh house.
