Their Venus in your 7th house

Partnership feels lovely and mutual

In synastry, you place one person's planets into the other person's houses. When someone's Venus, how you love, falls in your 7th house, Bonds, that part of them shows up in the part of your life about relationships, partners, marriage.

What it's like

Both of you giving, both of you receiving, a rare bit of balance. This person is one of those people who makes commitment seem natural and kind.
