Moon in Pisces: the seventh house for Virgo rising

With this ascendant Pisces occupies the 7th, which governs marriage, partners and contracts and is an angle (kendra) and a maraka house. Pisces adds compassion, imagination and a pull toward the transcendent. Venus signifies this house by nature, so its condition adds to the picture. The same lord, Jupiter, owns the 4th too, tying the two houses together.
