Sun in Aquarius in the Seventh House

Having your Sun in Aquarius, intellectual independence is your most marked characteristic. In the sign of Aquarius, the combination of a fixed quality (representing persistence) and an air element (representing intellect and communication) under the influence of the planet of change, Uranus, creates a personality that is liberal, progressive, yet fixed in opinion. Your inflexibility shows up when others least expect it (in keeping with your penchant for unconventionality). It may be in defense of an idea you have, a trip you’ve decided on, a habit of yours that you refuse to give up—whatever the cause, someone will suddenly come in conflict with your Aquarian obstinacy. With your Sun in Aquarius, you refuse to compromise or give an inch. You’re a strange mix of an avant-garde thinker whose opinions are written in stone. You cheerfully ignore what others think and strike off on new paths, unbound by precedent, because there are so many more exciting things for you to discover that way.

With your Sun in Aquarius, your character is a system of paradoxes. You enjoy being with people but are content to be alone. You like to travel but love relaxing at home. You are friendly and outgoing but also detached and reserved. You have both a scientific and an artistic turn of mind. In career you often are involved in two distinct areas of work.

As an individual with your Sun in Aquarius, you can be objective in judgment, for you don’t let emotion get in the way. This appears to give you the ability to stand outside yourself, to rise above ordinary human frailty. Your built-in distrust of emotion compels you to struggle against its chains, and this may become a source of inner conflict.

For the Sun in Aquarius, because independence is your way of life, you will sacrifice even a close personal relationship in order to maintain it. Trying to fence you in or tie you down won’t work. If you feel trapped, you try to break free at any cost. Your sign of Aquarius also represents future hopes and yearnings, and for you, what’s over is done with.

With your Sun in Aquarius, your great weakness is a tendency to inflate your own importance, to pose as an expert on any subject. You are so determined not to be like anyone else that you are sometimes contrary just to be different. You have the least regard for convention of any zodiacal sign, which often gives you a reputation for being eccentric. Just as you are broad-minded about the faults of others, you take for granted that your shortcomings will be overlooked. Sometimes you will be argumentative not because you feel deeply, but simply because you enjoy the intellectual exercise. You are quickly bored and take delight in verbally provoking anyone you consider stodgy and dull.

Nevertheless, individuals with their Sun in Aquarius are among the kindest people in the world. Easygoing, reasonable, slow to take offense, never mean-hearted, you believe in live-and-let-live. Honest, helpful, altruistic, and best of all never boring, you can change anyone’s life for the better just by becoming part of it.

The Inner You with your Sun in Aquarius

With your Sun in Aquarius, the most frequent question you ask is “Why?” You want to understand what makes other people tick. Their lives fascinate you because you hope they will offer you insights into your own. You have plenty of love to give, and you want nothing more than to have lots of interesting friends, a wonderful love relationship, fulfilling work, and for the world to be a better place and everyone to be happy. Not much to ask, is it? One of your best-kept secrets is how shy and insecure you are. You wonder if the people you care about feel the same way about you—this is why you work so hard to make others like you. You want to share yourself, but are afraid of losing who you are or becoming what other people think you should be. Yet somehow your feelings of insecurity manage to coexist with a belief that you are someone special.

The sign position of the Sun indicates how we seek to express ourselves, develop ourselves, fulfill ourselves, and assert our will and power to shape our environment. The house position indicates the area of life in which we choose to focus the energy of our Sun sign and fulfill the purpose which it represents.

Sun in the 7th House

A Sun in the 7th House position suggests duality and opposition, since the Sun (self) is primarily concerned with the other in this house placement. This is not a strong placement for expressing your personality individually, however, your personality can shine when engaging in one-on-one relationships. Potentially, having your Sun in the 7th House, you can feel conflicted about yourself or you may take your self-worth and self-identity too much from other people. The issue you have to face, therefore, is to develop a strong sense of being, independent from others.

As an individual with your Sun in the 7th House, in order to be real in a meaningful relationship, you must be present to yourself. If you develop this strong sense of self, then you can more fully develop that self by engaging in relationships. Whether from a position of strength or a position of dependency, you are likely to spend much energy and attention on relationships with others. Prime relationships (marriage or business partnerships) will be very important in your life but you will tend to see all spheres of life as opportunities to meet and get to know other people.

Having your Sun in the 7th House, you will tend to be concerned with issues involving balance, fairness, and harmony – all important in the conduct of healthy relationships. You may be especially concerned with keeping the proper balance between the needs of yourself and the demands of others. The existence and the quality of your relationships are generally quite important to you. They often become a vehicle through which you can feel alive in your own being.

Insecurities

With your Sun in the 7th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will likely feel that you have no identity outside of a relationship. You, therefore, place undo importance on this area of your life. You are prone to developing low self-esteem and to seeing your identity merely as a reflection of your partner. Taking your identity from your relationships, you have a tendency to form dependencies on others. This further debilitates your self-esteem, especially if the relationship is not a positive one.

Focus of Your Self-Identity

Having your Sun in the 7th House, you tend to identify yourself in terms of the interpersonal relationships in which you are involved. Your constant involvement with other people generally marks you as a “people person.” It may be difficult for you to see yourself apart from your relationships with others. Without people to relate to, you may feel cast adrift, without a reference point or even worthless. The great danger with having your Sun in the 7th House, is that, rather than identifying yourself as a person who has relationships, you identify yourself merely as the partner in a relationship, becoming an appendage or reflection of your partner.  You may have to strive to create and maintain your own separate identity.  Nevertheless, being in a relationship is generally important in order for you to be able to define yourself and in order for you to feel yourself as who you are. You are likely to feel most like yourself when engaged in interpersonal, one-on-one relationships. Thus, you put much energy into the development of relationships.
