I'm a Venus seventh houser, I can honestly say that I change when I'm in a relationship, I become co-dependent, I let the partner rule me because I'm too much of a compromiser, I let them take charge at times and usually it's all well and good with the right person but with the wrong person it's like digging your own grave, with this you have to be very careful with who you get with as we are very co-dependent and make the partner your world, I've also got the moon there which is twice as bad in the negative sense!

Also this isn't a good thing if you want to get into selling product for businesses as we're too nice and we haven't got the drive and fire.

We're 'yes' people overall whenever in relationships and when you break up with anyone, s'like you've lost your entire world since you just based it all around them in the first place

Now I understand why I become a different person when am in a relationship..TBH I don't really like myself during those times,trying too hard to maintain peace,it comes down to attracting the wrong types that take things for granted.Or may be that's what a 7th house Venus brings to the table.At the same time I like to be on top of things,it's like Venus on one side and sun,saturn (and mercury?)on the other side may be? pulling at each end of the rope?I sure feel my 7th house placements very diffently.I KNOW I won't be happy in a relationship that requires me doing all the hard work.I expect the other person to meet me halfway.If I feel this is not the case,I will manipulate the person so that he leaves!

I have venus in the 7th with moon and mercury there too.
I have limited experience but still I'll just share what I think may apply to this placements.
I don't think I am a people pleaser. I do enjoy helping people (I am a 6th house sun so that might explain it too). But I easily notice when people take advantage of me and use me. And once I do, I cut them off.
I am not really sure venus in the 7th house is entirely responsible for being a people pleaser. It certainly plays a part but the rest of the chart has to be taken into account. It might make someone more diplomatic, more tolerant if someone you like acts badly.
To me, the downside of venus in the 7th is that I have a hard time feeling lovable if I'm not around people who I know truly appreciate me (but doesn't everybody feel that way?). There's this need to matter, which translates into a need for meaningful partnership. If that isn't the case then it is easy for me to think that there is just nothing about me that is attractive. I also have the moon there so it might influence this a lot though I think it translates more into a need to be needed.
Mercury in the 7th tends to make me over-analyse social relationship and people behavior. It conjuncts my moon, and I translate every thing people say or do into "what does that say about their feelings?". Or maybe that's just me being overly analytic for no reason at all, but I'm always reading between the lines, trying to understand the inner working of interactions.. Also I need someone to balance my idea out and debate.

Overall I think the downside of any 7th house placements is how important relationships become to the person. They're the kind of people who have a very hard time defining themselves out of it. There's a struggle between individuality and partnership. It's really easy for these people to lose track of themselves once they're with someone as they give utmost importance to the partner. If you have many 7th house planets but no first house planets it can be even more difficult to find a compromise between the two.

'' It might make someone more diplomatic, more tolerant if someone you like acts badly.''

Ya, definitely more tolerant. I agree.

''To me, the downside of venus in the 7th is that I have a hard time feeling lovable if I'm not around people who I know truly appreciate me (but doesn't everybody feel that way?).''

I imagine everyone lol. Who would want to be around people they know don't appreciate them.That being said I get what you are saying.It's really really very important for me to KNOW if the person I like REALLY REALLY likes me.I'm obsessed about if he likes me or not.

''There's this need to matter, which translates into a need for meaningful partnership. If that isn't the case then it is easy for me to think that there is just nothing about me that is attractive. I also have the moon there so it might influence this a lot though I think it translates more into a need to be needed.''

I feel like that too. My moon is in the 6th in the sign of Cancer.I need to feel that I matter to the person I like.

''Mercury in the 7th tends to make me over-analyse social relationship and people behavior.

I relate 100%. Mercury conjunct venus exact,saturn and sun. I analyze (I don't think I over analyze) people reactions,words,body language.It's very helpful to me in my everyday life at work.When it comes my personal relationship,YES, I do tend to over analyze the other person's reactions,moods,things he said, things he did like ages ago.Yeah I do tend to read in between the lines a lot, sometimes jumping to hasty conclusions if am too emotional.But I'm rarely wrong.If my mercury is telling me something is wrong then something is definitely wrong,it's the way that I communicate that can be a little too harsh or too blunt.

I have my Moon and Venus in Libra in the 7th house (as well as mercury) and I can relate to what you wrote. Am trying to learn to set better boundaries though.

I crave intimacy but at the same time I really fear it. When I start getting attached (which actually happens really rarely) I feel the need to get away because I know what happens when I do-I become much too compliant at times and I hate it.

You've got a pretty unlimited supply of attraction from others, because this placement is ideal for Venus (being at home) you've got a pretty good chance for having a wonderful partner relationship later in life.

Edit: I've got Mars in the 1st so it's an opposite house placement to Venus in the 7th. I've always battled between being too independent/aggressive to being too accommodating/peace seeking. It's a balancing act.


Although I don’t have a 7th House Venus, I have both Venus and Mars in the 1st House, and I can definitely relate to how you’ve experienced managing opposing energies.

Cancer Rising
2nd House Leo Sun
3rd House Leo Mercury
6th House Sagittarius Moon & Pluto
1st House Cancer Venus & Mars
9th House Pisces Jupiter conjunct MC.

Vedic says that a planet in its domicile tends to "double" the effects. So I guess too much of a good thing ain't that good?

Well my boo(yes I am finally seeing someone and will brag about it later ) both have Venus in 7th.

Venus is in its domicile in Libra. And has accidental domicile status in the 7th.

What I notice with us is strong sensitivity to each other's feelings. And with regards to our own feelings too.

We treat each other with kid gloves.There is a lot of "are u okay?" that goes back & forth.

Both of us have been single for a long time too. I don't know if that's a 7th house thing too. But I notice that there is a pattern.

It's either 7th house people tend to be so serious about relationships,they are either very picky. Or they simply remain single indefinitely.

Contrary to popular belief,even as 7th house Moon /Lib is into relationships etc. They tend to be cautious in the mating game.

They may tend to pick their partner apart to see if they are "suitable" or "best" for them etc.

Libra/7th house people are definitely also not the type to just jump into any coupling-as is often described.

Look at Shemar Moore. He has been single for as long as I can remember. He has Lib Asc/Moon with Ven in Taurus.
