Lilith in the seventh house
Lilith in the seventh house puts the ungovernable part directly into partnership. There is something this person will not surrender to be kept, however reasonable the request looks, and any relationship that expects total assimilation will find the limit. Partners are often the ones who carry the disowned material, which makes for vivid and combustible pairings.

Which sign holds it
Under whole-sign houses the rising sign settles every other house at once. If you know your Ascendant, this is the sign your seventh house holds and the planet that rules it.
| Aries rising | Libra · ruled by Venus |
|---|---|
| Taurus rising | Scorpio · ruled by Mars |
| Gemini rising | Sagittarius · ruled by Jupiter |
| Cancer rising | Capricorn · ruled by Saturn |
| Leo rising | Aquarius · ruled by Saturn |
| Virgo rising | Pisces · ruled by Jupiter |
| Libra rising | Aries · ruled by Mars |
| Scorpio rising | Taurus · ruled by Venus |
| Sagittarius rising | Gemini · ruled by Mercury |
| Capricorn rising | Cancer · ruled by Moon |
| Aquarius rising | Leo · ruled by Sun |
| Pisces rising | Virgo · ruled by Mercury |
Quadrant systems such as Placidus cut the houses by the angles instead, so a planet near a cusp can land in a different house from the whole-sign answer. The chart page shows both.
Reading it in context
A keynote is a starting point, not a verdict. What Lilith actually does in your seventh house depends on its sign, its aspects, its dignity, and whether it is in sect. Two people with the same placement and different charts around it live it differently.
