What if 7th lord is in 8th house? (Vedic Astrology)

Several astrological predictions can be made with the 7th lord in the 8th house and here are some of them.

1) Aries Ascendant: For Aries ascendant Venus rules the 7th house and it will fall in the sign of Scorpio in the 8th house when the 7th lord is placed in the 8th house. Venus is a planet of relationships and Scorpio is a sign of sex and so it simply means a lot of sexual relationships and if Venus is afflicted in the chart, it could even give sexual diseases to the native such as piles and hernia. I don’t teach afflictions in the free articles here and you need to join my paid tutorials for that as mentioned on the > contact me page < above.

If Mars and Saturn are placed in the 7th house (considering Venus still being placed in the 8th house) and if they are afflicted then it could also give fertility problems to the native. If this is the chart of a girl or woman, a uterus (mother’s womb) problem could also occur. This placement is not much good when it comes to health. If Venus is Gnatikarka (GK) then diseases are more likely as GK carries the energy of the 6th house of diseases. Click here for more > Venus in 8th house for Aries ascendant.

Saturn is a dark planet. If Sun is light then Saturn is darkness and that is the reason both are opposite to each other. Now when Jupiter is placed in the sign of Saturn, Capricorn, in the 8th house the native could be interested in knowledge and information (as Jupiter is knowledge and information) of the dark world such as tantra, mantra, occult science (such as astrology, tarot card reading, numerology, etc), paranormal, magic, spirit possession, ghost possession, death & rebirth, cosmology, astronomy, etc. This is because all the hidden and secret knowledge of the Universe (such as the solar system and its planets) is represented by the 8th house.

4) Cancer Ascendant: For a Cancer ascendant Saturn rules the 7th house and it will fall in the sign of Aquarius in the 8th house when the 7th lord is placed in the 8th house.

If you are running a website or youtube channel or even a business, the network of your customers or users will keep growing during Saturn Mahadasha. Saturn grows the network in its own sign of Aquarius.

This is a great placement to make a lot of money in life, especially during Saturn Mahadasha or even Saturn anterdasha. This placement is also good for engineering and IT (information technology). Getting married will also be very easy with this placement unless Saturn is afflicted in the chart. This is because the 8th house is the gain of the 7th house. Any given house is always the gain of its previous house.

5) Leo ascendant: The 8th house is always the gain of the 7th house as the 8th house is 2nd from the 7th house and anything 2nd is gain. Now, if the 7th house is the house of relationship, then it becomes the gain of relationship when the 7th lord Saturn is placed in the 8th house.

So, this placement is good for getting married or getting into a relationship, and getting married will not be an issue for you unless Saturn is afflicted in the chart. If the 8th lord Jupiter is placed in the 5th house of love and romance then something like love marriage is also possible. If the 8th lord Jupiter is afflicted in the chart (in the 5th house) your love and romance could also fail.

The 7th house is not just the house of relationships but it is also the house of making deals. For example, when you sell or buy a stock using the stock trading software then you are making a deal and when the 7th lord Saturn is placed in the 8th house then such deals become possible. In other words, this placement is also good for making deals related to stocks, commodities (such as gold and silver), currencies (such as euro/USD), or anything else.
