The lord of the 7th house in the 6th house of the horoscope

The lord of the 7th in the 6th house. Marital discord, divorce, a sickly spouse, unsuccessful partnership relations.. (James Braha)


The lord of the 7th in the 6th house. A person born with such a yoga is likely to have periods when he languishes with love; the possession of a sickly marriage partner is likely; susceptibility to sexual diseases. (Tom Hopke)


The lord of the 7th house in the 6th house: poor health, irascibility, he spends too much on pleasures, the favour of fortune after the wedding, a sickly and hostilely disposed wife, the likelihood of divorce, a joyless life. (Shri Govind Swarup Agarwal)


  • This is the worst placement, an indication of sins from the past life. The person gave little of himself in personal relationships, thought more about himself, or he had some hostile relations with his partner, or he did not want to look after a sick partner.
  • In most cases — divorce. The 6th is a dusthana, and also the house of illnesses and enemies, and also the house of losses for the 7th — the 12th from the 7th.
  • Such couples either divorce, or serious crises occur. Or one of the partners is seriously ill, and the second is forced to look after him.
  • There may be debts connected with the partner.
  • The native needs to work very hard on his marital and partnership relations, and to rid himself of subconscious aggression and egoism.

Rami Bleckt, “How to Become a Seer”, p. 157-158


The 7th in the 6th: this is considered a not very favourable placement, because the 6th is connected with work, illnesses, cares, troubles and servants, so when the ruler of the 7th is in the 6th, especially if it is weak, then the partner will lack something: health, money or intelligence, for example. He constantly has some problems. There will constantly be some problematic situations where the participation of the owner of the horoscope will be required. Problematic, unhealthy, unhappy partners will come along.

In the very best variant, when the lord of the 7th in the 6th is well placed, it may give a hard-working partner.


Not a very good placement, even if the ruler is strongly placed in the 6th house.

If the ruler is strong and well placed:

  • The person will be excessively brave, likes to argue and to stand up for his point of view. And these qualities will not help him much.
  • The person is energetic and impulsive, but irritability may manifest.
  • He may earn well and is hard-working, but disagreements are possible and this indicates the possibility of several marriages.

If the ruler of the 7th is afflicted in the 6th house

  • It destroys family relations.
  • If there are aspects, this will indicate that it is difficult for the person to form lasting relationships.
  • Even if there is a relationship, then the native’s spouse may suffer because of his health and from the jealousy of the owner of the horoscope.
