Mars in the 7th house
Mars in the 7th house brings fire to partnership. Drawn to strong, lively people and good at a fair fight, you find your drive through others and need a partner who can match you.
The people you have loved most were the ones you argued with best.
Your seventh house is the house of partners, marriage, contracts and open rivals, and your Mars, the planet of drive and fight, was in it when you were born. Your drive comes alive beside another person.
Strong partners
You are drawn to people with fire, confidence and edges: bold, ambitious, a little difficult. A gentle partner bores you within a month. You want a partner who pushes back, and your best relationships have a spark of competition in them.
The negotiator who fights
In business you are a tough, fair negotiator and a loyal ally. Rivals bring out your best work. You know how to stand up for yourself in a deal, and how to stand up for a partner.
Fighting the mirror
The risk is that partnership becomes a battlefield. You can provoke the fight you say you hate, or choose partners whose anger carries your own.
When an argument starts, say what you want before you say what they did wrong.
Worth the sparks
Your partners say you made them braver, and the ones who stayed say it was worth every argument.
Were you born with Mars in the 7th house?
The houses are drawn from the horizon at the minute and the place you were born, and the whole wheel of them turns once a day, so the house a planet stands in depends on your birth time. Two people born on the same day can have Mars in different houses.
Your chart, below, places Mars in its house and every other planet in theirs.
