7th House Lord

The planet ruling the 7th house of your birth chart — classically the house of marriage, partnership, and spouse — whose own Dasha periods and transits are especially significant for marriage timing.

In practice

A Dasha or Antardasha period ruled by your 7th lord (or a transit connecting to it) is traditionally considered one of the strongest indicators of a likely marriage window.

How it's calculated

Determined by which zodiac sign falls in the 7th house from your Ascendant (whole-sign house system) and that sign's classical ruling planet.
