Unpredictable, unstable relationships are in order when Uranus is in the 7th, because the people you attract are usually unpredictable and unstable (i.e. Uranian). I find that the guys I meet are usually going through some sort of Uranus transit when they meet me, since Uranus is so strong in my chart.
One man was was having transiting Uranus sextile his natal Venus, and another had transiting Uranus conjunct his natal Venus at the time of our meetings. I was going through a Uranus sextile Venus transit when I met an Aquarian man, and Uranus square my seventh house ruler when I met yet another Aquarian man.
The nature of the planet affecting the love sector reflects the kind of relationship/partner you’ll have during that time. The person doesn’t necessarily have to be a Scorpio (for a Pluto transit), an Aquarius (for an Uranus transit), etc., but the synastry chart or composite chart will usually have the flavor of that planet, or the other person will be going through a similar transit.
Uranus crossing the DC (cusp of the 7th house) sometimes manifests by meeting someone new, out of the blue, or suddenly breaking up with your partner/your partner suddenly leaving you. Does it always mean the end of your relationship? No, definitely not. This transit can also indicate you and your partner will go through many sudden and unexpected changes as a couple during this period. It does not necessarily mean a breakup at all.
If you are single, you will likely meet someone new, but the longevity of the relationship depends on many factors (progressions, synastry, composite). Uranian relationships are often “out of the norm”; you partner with people you wouldn’t have considered before the transit began. Uranian relationships can include long-distance arrangements, too; anything non-traditional, really.
The 7th house is not only about love relationships. It also rules all types of one-on-one relationships, such as business partnerships, customers/clients, and even close friendships, all of which may become very unpredictable and exciting during this period.
How the person handles this transit depends on the nature of the person. Individuals with heavy water or earth influences would have a more difficult time with a transit like this, as security, stability, and co-dependency are the kinds of relationships they usually seek. Fire and Air signs are generally more free-spirited and non-committal, which would make Uranus transits much easier on them. A friend of mine had a very hard time with this transit, as she is a Taurus Venus.
She would meet a man (out of the blue- in true Uranus fashion), fall really hard for him, then they’d break up because he could not commit. She’d be devastated, but then she’d meet someone new in a flash, and the same thing would happen all over again. And my friend with Venus conjunct Uranus in her natal chart? She had the time of her life.
A friend of mine went through this transit a few years ago. When Uranus crossed her DC, she met a man whom she fell deeply in love with. He was not her regular type; she is a type A over-achiever, while he was a pot-smoking, guitar playing hippie-type. She was so obsessed with this guy for a while, until they broke up suddenly one day (he broke up with her). A year or two later, she met a new man who was also very different than her usual type, but fell deeply in love with him. They got married a few years ago, and their relationship has been going very well, from what I know. As a couple, they made the decision to move out of the country to be closer to his aging parents. The relationship is definitely Uranian, given the major impact it has had on both of their lives.
