Article 327

When working positively, retrograde Venus placed in the seventh house of a horoscope can bless the native with a wide variety of benefits, comforts and pleasures related to the spheres of his marriage, profession, health, finances and many other spheres of his life. Accordingly different natives benefitting from this positive influence may experience good results related to different spheres of their lives which may vary in type and quantum, depending on the type and strength of this influence as well as depending on the overall tone of the horoscopes of these natives. Since seventh house of a horoscope primarily deals with marriage and married life of the native, the presence of such benefic influence in the seventh house of a horoscope can especially bless the native with a good and gainful marriage due to which different natives benefitting from this positive influence may witness different types of gains through their marriages depending on their overall horoscopes.

Some natives under the effect of this benefic influence may get married to someone belonging to a foreign country which has a higher or much higher standard of living than their own country and they may settle in that foreign country on the basis of that marriage, thereby seeing very good rise in their overall living standard as well as in their profession. For example, the presence of benefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of a horoscope in the sign of Libra can bless the native with a beautiful and caring wife who may belong to a foreign country of higher living standard, though this placement alone may not promise a wife from a foreign country. However if benefic Rahu is placed in the seventh house of the same horoscope in the sign of Libra along with benefic Venus, and benefic Mars is placed in the twelfth house of this horoscope in the sign of Pisces, the native may certainly get married to a beautiful wife hailing from a foreign country with a higher standard of living.

The combined effect of these three benefic planets in the seventh and twelfth house of the horoscope of this native can not only bless him with a beautiful wife from a foreign country, but the same benefic effect can also get the native settled in that foreign country. Such native may earn good amount of money in that foreign country and he may also enjoy a far better quality of life by virtue of his settlement in that foreign country due to his marriage. If benefic Saturn is placed in the tenth house of this horoscope in the sign of Capricorn, the native under the combined effect of such benefic retrograde Venus, Rahu, Mars and Saturn may get married to a woman who is elder to him in age or who has already been divorced once, but who at the same time is beautiful, caring and richer or much richer than native.

The fortune of this native may change overnight by virtue of this marriage, as he may not only get a beautiful wife and settle in a foreign country with a higher standard of living, but he may also become rich by virtue of his marriage to such woman. If benefic Moon is placed in the second house of this horoscope in the sign of Taurus, the native under the combined influence of such benefic retrograde Venus and other benefic planets mentioned in this example may profit even more. The wife of such native may either make him a partner in her already well established business or she may give him a big amount of money to start some business of his own due to which, the native may become professionally well established soon after his marriage to such female.

Looking at these two possibilities, if benefic Sun is placed in the fourth house of this horoscope in the sign of Cancer or if benefic Sun is placed in the eighth house of this horoscope in the sign of Scorpio, the native is more likely to get a partnership in the already established business of her wife. On the other hand, if benefic Sun is placed in the sign of Leo in the fifth house of this horoscope when benefic retrograde Venus and benefic Rahu are placed in the seventh house, benefic Mars is placed in the twelfth house and benefic Moon is placed in the second house of the same horoscope, the native under the combined effect of these benefic planets is more likely to get a big financial support from her wife and start his own business. However, in both the cases, the native may profit a lot in the sphere of his profession and overall finances, by virtue of such marriage to a beautiful women belonging to a foreign country.

Some other natives profiting from this benefic influence may get married to rich and well established people and some of them may get married to a person belonging to a family which holds some type of power and authority due to which, these native may witness rise in their social status as well as in their authority, depending on their overall horoscopes. For example, the presence of benefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of a horoscope in the sign of Taurus can bless the native with a beautiful and well mannered wife in case of male natives, whereas the same benefic placement in case of female natives can bless them with a well established, rich or a powerful husband.

Following the case of female natives this time, if benefic retrograde Venus is placed in the seventh house of a horoscope in the sign of Taurus and a combination of benefic Jupiter and benefic Rahu is placed in the eleventh house of the same horoscope in the sign of Gemini, the female native under the combined influence of these benefic planets may get married to a rich or a very rich person and she may enjoy a fair share of his money and resources after her marriage. If benefic Sun or benefic Mars is placed in the eighth house of the same horoscope, let’s say benefic Sun is present in the eighth house of the same horoscope in the sign of Gemini, the native under the combined effect of these four benefic planets may get a husband who is not only rich but who also belongs to a family that holds some political or other type of power and authority. Hence the female native in this case may witness a very good rise not only in her financial equation and quality of living, but she may also witness a very good rise in her social status and authority also.

Moving on, if benefic Mars is placed in the tenth house of this horoscope in the sign of Leo, the female native under the combined effect of such benefic retrograde Venus, Jupiter, Rahu, Sun and Mars in various houses of her horoscope may not only get married to a man belonging to a very well established political family or even to a man belonging to a royal family, but she may also enjoy a very good amount of personal authority by virtue of such marriage. It means that such native may herself get elevated to a post of power and authority by virtue of her marriage to such man or she may deal with a large number of people on daily basis by virtue of being a member of this family and she may make a good name for herself through the process.

At the same time, if benefic Saturn is placed in the fourth house of this horoscope in the sign of Capricorn, benefic Moon is placed in the seventh house of this horoscope in the sign of Taurus along with benefic retrograde Venus and benefic Mercury is placed in the ninth house of this horoscope in the sign of Cancer, the female native under the combined influence of all these benefic planets may come across some of the most wonderful results that a female can ever experience through her marriage. The female native under the combined effect of all these benefic planets in various houses of her horoscope may get married to a man who belongs to the one of the richest, one of the politically most established or one of the most royal families of his country. Hence this female native may witness a great rise not only in her standard of living, but in her overall status, authority, fame, recognition and respect that she gains through common people, in a short period of time after her marriage.

The same combination of all these benefic planets in the horoscope of this female native including benefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of her horoscope is not only capable of blessing her with all the above mentioned results through her marriage but it is capable of blessing her with even more. If the other factors in her horoscope are favorable, such female native may become the queen or head of state of an entire country by virtue of her marriage in one such royal or political family. It should be noted that though the placement of all the planets in the horoscope of this female has been mentioned, I have still used the term ‘if her horoscope is favorable’.  This is due to the fact that though planetary placements in various houses, signs and in various combinations is one of the most important aspects in a horoscope, it is not everything and more is required, particularly when extreme types of results whether good or bad are considered.

Explaining this example in more details, if the combination of benefic retrograde Venus and benefic Moon is placed in the seventh house of this horoscope in the sign of Taurus as well as in the nakshatra of Rohini, benefic Jupiter is placed in the eleventh house of this horoscope in the sign of Virgo as well as in the nakshatra of UttraPhalguni, benefic Mercury is placed in the ninth house of this horoscope in the sign of Cancer as well as in the nakshatra of Pushya or in the nakshatra of Ashlesha, benefic Mars is placed in the tenth house of this horoscope in the sign of Leo as well as in the nakshtra of Magha or UttraPhalguni and the ascendant is rising in the sign of Scorpio as well as in the nakshatra of Jyeshtha, the female native under the combined influence of these combinations has much better chances of becoming a queen or head of the state of a country.

However, if some of these combinations change like the ascendant rises in the nakshatra of Anuradha, benefic Moon and benefic retrograde Venus are placed in the nakshatra of Mrigshira and benefic Mars is placed in the nakshatra of PurvaPhalguni, the results may change. Accordingly this female native may not be able to become the queen of a country or head of state of a country though she may get very close to this title, once or more than once in her life. Looking at some other factors, if all the planetary combinations are favorable in terms of houses, signs as well as in terms of nakshatras as already described, and a planetary main period of Moon, Mars or Venus hits this female native at a relevant age which is between any age above the age of 35 or 42, she may achieve one of these titles.

On the other hand, if a planetary period of Rahu or Saturn is in effect when such an opportunity presents itself, the same female native may not be able to achieve one of these titles, though she may definitely get something else which is of somewhat less value than one of these things. For example, she may be offered the post of party president of the ruling party in a country and she may also be offered a number of other financial as well as other benefits instead of being offered the post of the head of that country. Similarly she may get a special post of honor which comes with a number of benefits as well as with great respect and authority, instead of becoming the ruling queen of a country. Astrology is full of possibilities as there are billions of possible combinations in a horoscope and accordingly, there are billions of possible good or bad things that can happen to a native under the influence of such different combinations.

Apart from this, benefic retrograde Venus placed in the seventh house of a horoscope can not only bless the native with many other types of good results through his marriage, but it can also bless him with good results related to his profession, finances, health, reputation and many other spheres of his life, depending on his overall horoscope. On the other hand, retrograde Venus placed in the seventh house of a horoscope can trouble the native with a wide variety of problems related to his marriage, profession, financial equation, health, reputation and many other spheres of his life, if it turns negative in a horoscope. Accordingly many natives suffering from this malefic influence may have to witness bad results related to many spheres of their lives where such bad results can be different in type and in quantum for different natives, depending on the type and strength of this malefic placement, as well as depending on the overall tone of the horoscopes of these natives.

As seventh house of a horoscope primarily deals with marriage aspect of the native, such malefic influence can cause many problems and troubles in the marriage and married life of the native, depending on the overall tone of the horoscope of the native in question. For example, the presence of malefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of a horoscope in the sign of Aries can not only cause delay in the marriage of the native under its influence, but it can also cause disturbances in the marriage of such native. Accordingly the native under the effect of this malefic influence may have to wait till late or very late in order to get married, depending on his overall horoscope. Once married, the native under the effect of this malefic influence may have to face issues related to lack of trust, lack of compatibility and lack of understanding with his life partner and these issues can intensify if there are other negative planets in the horoscope of this native which support such disturbances.

For instance, the presence of malefic Mars in the second house of the same horoscope in the sign of Scorpio can add more negativity to this equation, particularly if Mars placed in the second house of this horoscope forms Manglik Dosh in the horoscope. Accordingly the native under the combined effect of such malefic retrograde Venus and Manglik Dosh may have to face serious problems in his marriage. The wife of such native may give him very hard time as she may be very aggressive and doubting by nature and hence she may keep arguing and fighting with the native on account of one thing or the other. If malefic Rahu or malefic Ketu is placed in the seventh house of the same horoscope in the sign of Aries or if one of them is present in the second house of the same horoscope in the sign of Scorpio, the equation may become even more negative. Accordingly the native under the combined effect of all these malefic influences may have to face one or more than one broken marriage and even the divorces may finalize after much drama and trouble.

Some other natives under the effect of this malefic influence may have to face delay in their marriage and they may be able to get married late or very late in their lives depending on their overall horoscopes. For example, the presence of malefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of a horoscope in the sign of Aquarius can delay the marriage and accordingly the native may have to wait till late in his life in order to get married. Such malefic placement can also trouble the native on account of some marriage proposals which may come closer to being finalized but which may not materialize in the end. If malefic Ketu is placed in the second house of the same horoscope in the sign of Virgo or if malefic Saturn is placed in the twelfth house of the same horoscope in the sign of Cancer, the native under the combined effect of these malefic influences may not be able to get married till 35 years of his age or even till 41 years of his age, if there is no other planetary combination present in the horoscope of this native, which promotes a timely marriage.

Considering one more possibility in the same example, if malefic retrograde Venus is placed in the seventh house of a horoscope in the sign of Aquarius, a combination of malefic Ketu and malefic Saturn is present in the second house of this horoscope in the sign of Virgo and malefic Jupiter is placed in the sixth house of the same horoscope in the sign of Capricorn, the native under the combined effect of all these malefic planets may not get married at all, and he may have to remain single throughout his life. Even if there is some other planetary combination present in the horoscope of this native, which is benefic and which promotes marriage, such marriage may not last long and the native may have to remain single for his life, after the divorce is finalized in such marriage.

Apart from this, malefic retrograde Venus placed in the seventh house of a horoscope can trouble the native in many other ways through his marriage and accordingly many natives suffering from this malefic influence may have to face many other types of problems and troubles through their marriages, depending on their overall horoscopes. Malefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of a horoscope can also trouble the native with problems related to his profession, overall finances, reputation, health and many other things. Such malefic placement can especially prove very bad for the health and longevity of the native and accordingly some natives under the effect of this malefic influence may have to suffer from serious diseases. In an extreme case of this type, the native under the combined effect of such malefic retrograde Venus in the seventh house of his horoscope and some other negative planets in his horoscope may get afflicted by a life threatening disease which may claim his life at a relatively young or very young age.
