7th house in Capricorn
Avessalom Podvodny. Houses in the Signs of the Zodiac
A soldier who cannot march is no better than a general without epaulettes. This person’s enemies are serious: practical, methodical, not prone to haste, yet never missing an opportune moment to strike with their hostile action. All these (and other) positive qualities should be studied by the individual, who must overcome their natural vulnerability and emotional sensitivity (1st house in Cancer). Their shortcomings in combat will include a lack of imagination, excessive asceticism, and pragmatism (one must remember things like morale and the fighting spirit of an army—or one’s own, at the very least—and sometimes make seemingly unnecessary expenditures for this purpose). Their perception of the opponent may be too grounded. In defeat, Capricorn and the 7th house may breed a deep fear of the enemy and, possibly, repressed confidence in their own invincibility, ultimately securing a complete and merciless victory over the individual. This fosters hidden cowardice, which may become apparent in battle, much to the surprise of an enemy prepared for a long and exhausting war until one side is completely drained of strength. Harmonious aspects to the 7th house bestow a fine strategist with good tactical abilities, though they may sometimes be too lazy to apply them. With partners, this person will be dry and reserved, but their restraint and practicality will serve them well—provided their stinginess does not starve their companions. They will not insist on their own way for long, preferring to yield to direct pressure, though this does not mean they have accepted their partner’s views; they simply resign themselves to them temporarily. They will choose a potential partner, especially a spouse (or husband), slowly and cautiously, testing them in practical matters and often overlooking the spiritual qualities revealed in a person. Their goals run deeper and are more profound than either their partner or even themselves may realize at first glance.
Houses in the Signs. Alexander Kostovich
Prone to caution. Unsociable and shy in public. Crowds exhaust, irritate, and drain him, so he cannot remain in them for long. (He is vulnerable to vampires.) Cautious in marriage, often marrying late in life once he has achieved a stable position in society. A marriage of convenience or for prestige is likely. His wife often deceives him; they quarrel, separate, reconcile, and find meaning in this cycle that outsiders cannot comprehend. Frequently unhappy in marriage. In public, he appears gentle, but few suspect the intensity of energy within him. Highly ambitious, he works tirelessly on himself while others sleep. He takes his partner seriously and strives to adapt to them. With partners, he is dry, reserved, and practical. When it comes to business, he immediately suppresses his emotional reactions, becoming dry and businesslike. He judges others by his own standards, which often do not fit. He develops slowly and earns respect gradually. He dislikes standing out in a crowd, preferring to remain unnoticed; his sensitivity can be grating. He does not like to make the first move, favoring a wait-and-see strategy, yet he cannot tolerate being oppressed. Rarely does he elicit sympathy or understanding from others. Modest and aloof, he seeks patronage from others. He loves antiques and dislikes discarding old things. His enemies are serious, practical, methodical, not prone to haste, yet never missing an opportunity to strike. In battle, he may suddenly panic.
Pavel Globa. Houses in the Signs
Capricorn — a serious attitude toward marriage. The choice of a partner is long and meticulous. A late marriage or marriage to an older partner is possible. An attraction to patient and experienced partners. Relationships in marriage are restrained, cool, but stable. Yet beneath the outward restraint, passionate feelings may hide. A symbol of constancy and fidelity in marriage or single life. At a low level — treachery, deceit, constant hostility, or obstacles to marriage.
