Mercury in House 7
Mercury represents the way you think, speak and learn. House 7 is the house of the other: marriage, partnerships and agreements — and your openly declared rivals too. It's the mirror in which you meet whoever stands before you.
The seventh house rules marriage, partnerships, and dealings with the other, and also declared enemies. Mercury, in an angle, expresses itself in full and gives this house of relation its tone of word and dealing. It inclines toward a clever, communicative, youthful, or younger spouse, toward a union made also of conversation and understanding, and toward partnerships and contracts in commerce, dealing, or letters; being also the house of adversaries, it points to shrewd enemies skilled with the tongue, and lawsuits over words or papers. Dignified in its sign, it gives an ingenious mate and profitable business partnerships; afflicted, it brings misunderstandings, deceptions, or entangled contracts, and disputes in which the other’s cunning weighs.
