No, you are not wrong in your supposition about the approach taken in that chart (IGJ, p.108). It's a very clear example, so the ref was useful to me - thanks for that. Its not the approach I would take myself though, bearing in mind the comment from Lilly I quoted above, and that makes it hard for me to see the chart in the same way that you would.

Your conclusions abt 7th house for this missing youth can only be confirmed when you describe how this young guy is related to you. 7th house is the house of marriage, business partnerships and open enemies . The meaning is very vast and your relation with missing guy should be within any of these criteria if you insist on 7th house.

Open for suggestions.
Pg. 108 gives such a reference?
Much thanks to you for your time and corrections

There were so many splendid comments. Thank you all.

In Sue Ward?s Horary Course, she said that the 1st house for a complete stranger, that was someone you had never met, nor were likely to meet, whilst, the people of the 7th house represented who you would contact with but did not belong to any other house.

This was reflected in CA page 151 and page 147 and it would like to be quote here:

?If a Question be demanded of one absent in a general way, and the querent has no relation to the party; then the first house, the Lord of that House and the Moon shall signify the absent party.?

?The Ascendant and his Lord are for the Querent, the seventh house and his Lord from him you would speak with, this is understood, if you go to speak with one you familiarly deal with ,or are much conversant with, and is not allied to you,but if you would go speak with the Father, you must take the Lord of the fourth, if with the Mother,the Lord of the tenth,if the Father would speak with his Child, the Lord of the fifth, and so in the rest; vary your rule and it serves for all.?
