What makes a House 'Dominant'? 

Dominant Houses are the houses in which the most planets or the most significant planetary configurations are located in our birth chart.  Essentially, the more going on in a house, the more 'power' that house gains in significance.

Understanding our Dominant Houses provides valuable insights into our strengths, weaknesses, desires, and motivations. They can show us and where we are likely to make the most impact in this life, and possibly the most financial gain.

7th House Dominant

Known as the "House of Partnerships," the 7th House in astrology governs all forms of partnerships including marriage, business relationships, contracts, legalities, negotiations and agreements. It also represents how we generally relate to others in face-to-face scenarios.

Apart from partnerships, the 7th House is about achieving a sense of balance and fairness. It drives our need for relationships, both personal and professional, and signifies how we compromise and negotiate with others.

If your 7th House is dominant, you likely possess a strong desire to form partnerships and may often find yourself acting as a mediator. You strive for fairness and balance, and are good at seeing both sides of a situation. This house's energy can make you diplomatic, co-operative and highly conscious of justice and equality.

Shadow Aspects

The 7th House, like any astrological house, has shadow aspects. Individuals with 7th House dominance may struggle with codependency, indecisiveness, or being overly concerned with justice and fairness. They may need to learn to balance their need for relationships with the need for personal autonomy.

Given its link to partnerships and negotiations, careers related to the 7th House could law, human resources, public relations, or any role that requires diplomatic or political savvy. Careers in counseling or mediation could also be a good fit.

 

Note: It's important to remember that a dominant 7th House doesn't diminish the importance of other areas of life, represented by the remaining houses and planetary influences. The overall birth chart and the interactions between different houses and planets provide a comprehensive understanding of an individual's life and personality.
