Jupiter and Ketu in the 7th house at a glance
When Brihaspati + Ketu (Jupiter + Ketu) share a sign, a yuti, the chart fuses Jupiter’s wisdom, growth and good fortune and Ketu’s detachment, spirituality and liberation, and here all of it works through the 7th house (Yuvati / Kalatra), the house of marriage, the spouse, partnerships and one-to-one relationships (Kendra (angular), Maraka; natural sign Libra). This combination also forms the named Guru-Chandala Yoga (explained below).
Each graha in the 7th house
Brihaspati (Jupiter) in the 7th houseBenefic
A noble, wise and fortunate spouse and honest partnerships; it can over-idealize, but it is excellent for counsel and guidance.
Ketu (Ketu) in the 7th houseMalefic
A genuinely testing seat, said plainly: detachment in marriage, a risk of distance or separation and a spiritual or unusual spouse; relationships feel karmic and elusive.
Where each is strong or weak by sign:
| Graha | Nature | Own sign | Exalted (uchcha) | Debilitated (neecha) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brihaspati (Jupiter) | Benefic | Sagittarius, Pisces | Cancer | Capricorn |
| Ketu (Ketu) | Malefic | None (chhaya graha) | Scorpio | Taurus |
Jupiter and Ketu in the 7th house: the reading
