Saturn is one of the most important planets in Vedic Astrology. It rules over hard work, discipline, and stability. When placed in the 7th House for Cancer Ascendant, Saturn can have a significant impact on their life and relationships.
As mentioned earlier, in Cancer Ascendant, Saturn becomes a benefic planet as it is placed in a friend sign state. This means that the effects of Saturn would be more supportive towards the native than any negative influences.
Since Saturn is also the Lord of the 7th House (which governs relationships) and the 8th House (which governs transformation), its placement in the 7th house could bring about significant transformations to one's relationships. However, this transformation may not be sudden or easy but could take time as Saturn rules over slow and steady progress.
The placement of Saturn in Cancer Ascendant also shows that it takes care of its own houses (7th and 8th) which could result in some positive changes around finances and partnerships, although this might take time to manifest.
Saturn is also considered to be the natural karaka for house numbers 8,10 and 12 i.e., longevity, success/ career, and spirituality respectively. Therefore when placed in the seventh house for Cancer ascendant people it will influence these areas too.
The aspecting function of Saturn is vital to consider when interpreting such placements; here are some examples:
1. The Ninth House: The ninth house represents education, travel & spirituality. The aspect of Saturn indicates that Native needs to study well abroad or get an opportunity through foreign contacts etc. As Saturn aspects spiritualism too so there are chances that your partner would be spiritually inclined or from different religion/culture background.
2. First House: Since first house represents self-identity it shows that natives who have this placement might experience feeling upset with oneself due to apparent dissatisfaction regarding marriage or relationships as they strive for perfection. This could lead to depression or anxiety, but it's advised to focus on self-improvement instead of obsessing over what is missing in a relationship.
3. Fourth House: The fourth house represents the home, comfort and mother. Saturn's aspect here shows that the native may face difficulties in settling down which may affect personal life and family happiness. There may be issues with the mother; require more care, attention, or emotional support as they go through trials and tribulations.
Overall, Saturn's placement can have both positive & negative influences depending upon how strong its position is in this chart. One thing that cannot be denied is that the influence of Saturn makes natives devoted to practical achievements & long-term goals. It also leads them towards fulfilling social responsibilities which creates an improved outer image/relationships after going through various transformations throughout their lives.
