Is your Seventh House really empty?

Having no planets at the cusp of your seventh house does not mean that you won’t have good partnerships or will have marriage issues. Libra, the original zodiac ruler of the seventh house is the zodiac of romance, love, and commitments. Also, it values all sorts of commitments, especially romantic ones. Also, it is all about beauty, stability, values, culture, grace, ethnicity, and harmony. As Libra prioritizes harmony, it tends to avoid conflicts and problems in relationships and partnerships. Having conflicts tends to disrupt the stability of Libra, who is always in search of stability. Hence, if you have Libra at the cusp of your seventh house, you need to worry not.

However, if the guest planet is malefic, it would bring out negative effects on your seventh house of marriage and partnerships. There is no remedy to eradicate the effects of the malefic planet.
