7th House (Descendant) and the Signs

The descendant sign, located in the 7th House, is the sign that defines our most intimate interactions and significant partnerships throughout life. Thus, while the ascendant sign reveals who we are and how we express ourselves to the world, the descendant shows us how we relate to others, the types of people we attract and the dynamics present in these relationships.

Through the descendant sign we can uncover the nuances of the relationships we seek and the qualities we admire in others, projecting our ideals of companionship onto the astral chart, ranging from romantic relationships to professional partnerships. In other words, it will be this sign that will highlight the recurring patterns in our partners and help us understand the lessons that these connections bring us.

In addition, the Descendant reveals how we deal with conflicts and disagreements with others, especially when we feel cornered or upset, teaching us what we can do to avoid falling into the traps of direct confrontation.

From this complex analysis of the fabric of human relationships, the descending sign shows us how much each interaction has to teach us about ourselves and the world around us, providing us with the opportunity to grow, evolve and become more complete and conscious beings.

Descendant in Aries

People with Aries as their descendant have a fiery and determined energy, where courage and a strong personality define their interpersonal relationships, making them seek energetic and proactive partners, capable of challenging them and instigating them to live life with passion and courage. 

Attracted by the initiative and determination of others, they are people who yearn for intense relationships, where emotion and impetus are constant, which can end in frustration, especially if they are in a relationship with people who have more roots than wings, making the partnership more challenging. 

In addition, the partner may find it difficult to deal with the impatience and stubbornness typical of the Aries sign, as well as to overcome the feeling of emotional absence of the Aries, since their independent nature in the eyes of the other can be interpreted as disinterest, generating some conflicts in the relationship. 

To overcome these obstacles, it is essential to develop a balance between the need for space and attention and care for the other, recognizing that time dedicated to the partner not only brings unforgettable moments, but also drives personal growth.

Descendant in Taurus

People with Taurus as their descendant always seek stability and security in relationships, valuing loyalty above all else, which makes them want a loving partner who offers not only emotional stability, but also material security, allowing them to feel comfortable on a well-built foundation.

Other crucial aspects that determine the ideal relationship for people with this descendant are sensuality and sensory pleasures, needing to constantly receive small gestures of affection from their partner. This not only strengthens the foundation that is so necessary for this descendant but also makes them feel important to the other person.

However, as not everything is rosy, challenges can also appear, especially when the partner is faced with Taurus’ great inflexibility and resistance to change, which can harm the evolution of the relationship, and their emotional dependence, which can place a heavy burden on the partner.

Recognizing and dealing with these negative aspects in a healthy way is essential for the growth and success of any relationship, and it is important to be open to possibilities, respect the partner’s vision and cultivate emotional independence.

Descendant in Gemini

People with a Gemini descendant have an energy of lightness and freedom that fosters dynamic and humorous partnerships. Because they value communication, they seek relationships that stimulate them intellectually, that is, that involve an intellectual exchange with lively and relaxed conversations.

Because they are extremely sociable and enjoy interacting with others, people with this descendant yearn for new experiences and knowledge, which makes them prioritize relationships that are versatile and that provide them with intense social situations.

However, this versatility can also translate into a certain emotional inconsistency, causing them to be seen by their partner as someone superficial or emotionally unstable. This occurs because, by constantly seeking new stimuli, they may end up having some difficulty in creating a deeper emotional connection with their partner, which may be perceived as neglect on their part.

Therefore, it is essential for people with this descendant to recognize that, in addition to their social life, they need to nurture their intimate life, seeking a balance between new experiences and allowing themselves to put down roots alongside those they love. Only then will they be able to establish more satisfying and enriching relationships.

Descendant in Cancer

People with Cancer as their descendants bring with them a unique combination of care and commitment, attracting partners into their lives who value mutual care and open expression of feelings, with every relationship being based on dedication, empathy and the pursuit of joint growth.

However, there are challenges to be faced by those born with this descendant, and the main one is the emotional dependence typical of Cancer.

This occurs because, in any type of relationship, they tend to place all their feelings, such as affection and gratitude, on the other and expect to be reciprocated with the same intensity, which creates difficulties when the other has a different view of expressing emotions.

It is important for people with this descendant to work on self-knowledge and self-confidence, recognizing their own value and taking care of their self-esteem, thus seeking ways to direct all this need for protection and excessive care towards themselves. This will give space to the partner and will foster mutual growth in the relationship.

Descendant in Leo

People with Leo as their descendant are an intriguing mix of passion and rationality, tending to listen more to their hearts in any type of partnership, which makes them attract self-confident people who radiate security and have a strong presence. 

Self-esteem is valued as a crucial factor in relationships for Leo descendants, whether personal or professional, always seeking connections with partners who inspire them, and who, like them, are charismatic and passionate, capable of expressing creativity and leadership. 

However, the need for constant validation and attention typical of the Leo sign can reveal insecurities and emotional deficiencies in people with this descendant, leading to an excessive dependence on external recognition, presenting some difficulty in dealing with criticism, which can create obstacles in communication and mutual understanding. 

To overcome these challenges, it is essential that these people work on their ego and seek a healthy balance between emotional expression and self-knowledge. Learning about your own needs and how to verbalize them appropriately to your partner is the first step to building deeper, more meaningful relationships.

Descendant in Virgo

People with the Virgo descendant highly value planning, intelligence and order, which makes them inclined to seek partnerships with practical, systematic and dedicated people, capable of offering them security and stability.

The attraction to people who focus on daily tasks and value routine is very common, especially when we talk about the work environment, where they seek team partners who are dedicated, pragmatic and reliable.

Another striking point of this descendant is the constant search for perfection in everything they do, always trying to achieve accuracy. This search makes them extremely critical, both of themselves and of others, and they can be seen as rigid and inflexible people, distancing them from some social circles that are important for their growth.

For these Virgo descendants, it is important to develop a certain degree of flexibility and tolerance in order to be able to form partnerships that will add positive things to their lives, in addition to learning to balance objectivity and intuition, being open to new experiences and different perspectives.

Descendant in Libra

People with Libra as their descendants are attracted to balanced, harmonious and aesthetically pleasing partnerships, and are known for their ability to create and maintain smooth and diplomatic social relationships that revolve around aesthetics and refinement.

Because they value peace and tranquility so much, these descendants tend to make concessions to maintain balance, even giving up their convictions, just to avoid the stress of coming into conflict with the other person, which leaves them prone to one-sided and unbalanced relationships.

In addition, people with Libra as their descendant are very indecisive, not only in relationships, but in all aspects of their lives, constantly weighing the pros and cons before making a decision, which ends up fueling this tendency to give in for the other person.

Therefore, they need to learn to trust their instincts more and act more independently, taking better care of their own interests. Not only will this allow you to live a more authentic and fulfilling life, it will help you build rich and harmonious partnerships.

Descendant in Scorpio

People with Scorpio as their descendant tend to seek loyalty, intensity and depth in all their relationships, whether personal or professional, and they yearn for partners who are willing to share deep and true ideas.

This is because one of the most striking characteristics of these descendants is their ability to delve into the depths of emotions, being extremely intuitive, which gives them a natural ability to understand the feelings and motivations of those around them, helping to build intense and meaningful relationships.

In addition, people with Scorpio as their descendant are known for their determination and willpower, so when they commit to something, they show themselves to be dedicated and obstinate in achieving their goals, not being afraid to face challenges and adversities.

However, this emotional intensity can also lead to possessive and jealous behavior patterns, especially when we talk about romantic relationships, which can end up leading to unfounded arguments.

People with this descendant need to learn to maintain a balance of feelings towards others, avoiding creating fantasies in their heads that could fuel distrust about something that does not exist.

Descendant in Sagittarius

People with the Sagittarius descendant value good humor and optimism in all their relationships, viewing relationships with enthusiasm, confidence and an opportunity to venture into unknown lands that allow them to expand their horizons. 

This happens because they are people who have a thirst for knowledge and experience, needing constant sensory stimulation, which ends up making them connect with partners who give them greater opportunities to learn. 

In addition, they are known for their sincerity and frankness, tending to express their opinions bluntly, which can be refreshing for some, but can also cause conflicts with others if it is not well measured. 

Another important characteristic is their independence and need for freedom. Because they value their own space and autonomy, people with this descendant may have difficulty in fully committing, especially in the professional area. 

This occurs because they are people who easily feel bored with routines, and it is important for them to find a balance between independence and responsibilities in order to be able to build meaningful relationships that allow them to evolve.

Descendant in Capricorn

People with Capricorn as their descendant approach relationships with seriousness, responsibility and a desire for stability and security, committing to their partners on a deep level.

One of their most striking characteristics is their ability to set realistic goals and dedicate themselves body and soul to achieving them, which makes them connect with people who share their goals and are willing to work together to achieve them.

In addition, people with Capricorn as their descendant are known for their loyalty and fidelity, taking all commitments made within the relationship seriously, even though they can be quite reserved in letting their thoughts about the other person show.

Another characteristic is the way they approach life, being practical and pragmatic, which can lead them to be cautious when starting new relationships, as they prefer to build a solid foundation before committing themselves completely.

This can lead them to a certain rigidity, especially in relation to changes, having difficulty adapting to new situations or dealing with uncertainties, creating great challenges, especially in the professional area.

Descendant in Aquarius

People with Aquarius as their descendant approach relationships in a unique and progressive way, valuing freedom, originality and equality. Being open-minded, they are always interested in meeting people with different backgrounds, perspectives and ideas, which results in dynamic and enriching relationships.

This way of seeing the world and their friendly and sociable nature tend to make them have a wide network of friends and acquaintances who share their interests and ideals, but with innovative views, which provides them with contacts that are favorable for their growth, especially in the professional area.

Despite this ease in socializing, people with this descendant are also known for their independence and individuality, resulting in difficulty in fully committing to relationships that make them feel limited or restricted.

However, once they find a partner who respects their autonomy and encourages them to be authentic, they can become committed and loyal. That’s why it’s important for these people to connect with areas and partners that stimulate them intellectually, so they can build lasting and meaningful partnerships.

Descendant in Pisces

People with the Pisces descendant sign have strong sensitivity and compassion, and an increased ability to create emotional connections with others, often being seen as empathetic listeners and caring advisors, which can result in deep and meaningful bonds with their partners.

In addition, they are known for their romantic and idealistic nature, tending to dream of true and meaningful relationships, in which they seek a spiritual connection and a deep mutual understanding, valuing partnerships with dedicated and caring people.

Another important characteristic is their creativity and imagination. Owners of a rich inner life, they often express their emotions in artistic and poetic ways, sharing with their partners their appreciation for the beauty of simplicity in order to involve them in their fantasy.

Although this sensitivity makes it easier to build connections, it can also make them vulnerable to malicious advances, especially if they fail to establish healthy boundaries in their relationships. It is important for Pisces descendants to learn how to protect themselves from dubious advances, especially in the professional area, by cultivating balanced and nourishing relationships.
