Part of Fortune in the 7th house

The greatest joy of a person with this Parsa of Fortune placement comes from others. This is one of the most spiritual and unique positions of the Part of Fortune, as the Part of the Impartial Consciousness falls in the 1st house of self-identity. A person’s individuality becomes personal only in the presence of others. He constantly strives for union – through marriage, friendship or companionship. These and other forms of relationships bring him closer to knowledge of the personal individuality of the other. He always sees more joy in others than he is able to see in himself. As a result, he tends to encourage others to become more aware of their personal happiness.

In many ways this man is a minister because he expresses God through all of himself. His individuality is truly impersonal, since everything he wants is directed at others. He is able to sense people’s needs and encourage them to express themselves more fully. Their growth brings him joy.

Since his own individuality is not on a purely personal level, he has the ability to look at the world objectively. He studies action and reaction, cause and effect, and is deeply concerned with how people treat each other. One day he will learn how to combine the factors that God intended for man to experience perfect union. A person will sacrifice a lot of himself to achieve this union, and, having achieved it, he will know that the love he receives is much richer and deeper than what most people experience.

On a subconscious level, he cares about others more than they care about themselves. He tries to fill the gaps in other people’s lives, often trying to smooth over and soften their problems and traumas. However, it is difficult for him to understand what he really wants for himself. The course on which he ultimately steers his ship will be shown to him by other people.

In his youth, this person is too easily influenced by external forces to really understand where he is being led. Once he can find, understand and acknowledge his impartial Self, a union will be formed at the inner level that will become the most important and satisfying factor in his life, bringing the greatest joy.

Since happiness and good fortune will always come into a person’s life through other people, he is one of those few people who are truly happy when everything they do and think is dedicated to pleasing the person they love. This is a sincere yearning of the soul, and it surpasses all other yearnings that the card may indicate.

The lack of a personal union with another person causes disharmony and a feeling of lack of purpose, direction and meaning in life. By giving, one receives the greatest joy; in an effort to receive, he becomes increasingly aware of his imperfection. This comes from identification with the personal “I”.
