There are certainly some beautiful celebrities who are rather ageless and sexy at any age, BUT...

I posted this thread much more curious about people's real-life relationships and experiences having Capricorn Rising and/or Saturn in the 7th house.

As MVM said, the characterization of Saturn in the 7th isn't that we necessarily like chronologically older partners, just that we like more "serious" or "mature" partners--and I thought it was interesting because I like wild, youthful partners.

At age 18, liking guys much younger would be pretty gross!

For me, Saturn is one of 4 planets in that house. Mercury is just as telling. I have to hear something I like more than I need to see it. Saturn is Conjunct Mercury on my chart making this influence very strong.

Someone incredibly hot and much younger than me would be passable as long as they are capable of saying something intelligent or at least sensible. Or I will get bored. I am a Gemini after all, and there you go, the Sun is in the 7th, too.

The problem with the 7th, and I think this was pointed out earlier, is the emphasis in interpretation being unduly placed on what you want in relationships. This house for me represents more how I connect with other people, in all aspects of life.

blue moon, I've read that people with a big 7th house influence in their chart are especially concerned with relationships/partnerships. For me that's definitely true (Moon, Saturn, Venus) in 7th, at least in that I'm most fragile/invested in that area of my life, while other areas I'm much more laid back about. (My chart is a pitcher pouring into my Pisces 2nd house, which has Retro Jupiter in it...and with 2nd house issues, I'm just so relaxed and happy. I don't worry much about them and kind of expect them to take care of themselves...god if I only had that feeling about my love life.

You are right that 7th house isn't only about your attractions...with your nice stellium in the 7th, you'll share a lot of interests with Libras--not just concern about partnerships of all kinds, but an interest in equality, beauty, and justice.

Here is Anne Ortelee's list of what's emphasized in the 7th house:

quote:

---

Seventh House: Libra - Air Cardinal Cooperation Face to Face Relationships
Business and marital partners, marriage, divorce, contracts, lawsuits, bargains, agreements, dealings with the public, public's response to you, open enemies, cooperation with others, lack of cooperation, what you most lack in your self, attitudes towards marriage, your mate, kind and quality of your marriages, how many marriages, grandparents, people who act as your agent or on your behalf, public relations, unions, kidneys, ovaries, lower half of back, participation, interaction, oppositions, sharing, competition, compromise, fairness, others return what they feel you deserve, reconciliation, equality, alternatives, obstruction, blockages, withdrawal, behavior, manners, etiquette, social skills, how others help you or fight you, peace, harmony, tolerating differences, virtues, bitchiness, law suit

"The house placements of my two biggest stellia (7th house and 8th house) correspond to my perpetual attraction to Libra/Scorpio combos. Not sure what accounts for the Gemini attraction".

Hey, we could be soul mates, I have venus,saturn,pluto in 7th and Sun,Uranus,Neptune,Jupiter in 8th lol

It's not that i consciously look for older partners, it's just that only men who are years my senior have the "criteria", if you will, of what i'm searching for.

I'm a serial monogamist, so i don't just jump into a relationship with anyone. He has to be serious, mature, loyal, and ready to commit to me- among other things. So right off the bat, if i don't sense that he's the type of guy who is interested in those things i'm immediately turned off.

i agree with MVM that as we grow into our 7th we own those qualities and seek them less in others. the 7th is what we project and once you start to realize that your projections are yourself, the whole picture changes...or did for me.

as for older men or whatever the "cliches" are, i liked older men when i was 14, but between 18 and 40 every man i was attracted to turned out to be 19 - at least when i met him! of course my husband got older, but he was a good deal younger than i...chronologically at least. he had a cappy saturn in the 2nd so it was a very big player in his outlook. it opposed my mars and i felt i would suffocate in there!

i married for legal residence reasons at 28 and for "real" reasons at 32...
