Lord of the 7th in the 5th
Close partnerships run on shared enjoyment, not shared duty. Pick one project both sides actually want and start there; stop propping up a bond on obligation.
In detail
With the seventh house lord in the fifth, the configuration is present from birth and stays put. The seventh supplies the subject matter, marriage, partnership and open contest, while the house that holds its ruler supplies the setting; the fifth is children, pleasure and creative work. Unions here are formed by shared amusement, by making something together, or through children, rather than by calculation of advantage, and they lose grip once the enjoyment stops.
FAQ
- Why does duty weaken this kind of partnership?
- Because the bond was formed around shared enjoyment in the first place. Once being together turns into a task list, the thing holding it up is gone, and finding one activity both sides want repairs more than argument does.
