Jupiter in the 7th in Anuradha
This placement is not a generic Jupiter-in-the-7th. Anuradha forces Scorpio on the 7th and Taurus on the lagna.

The lagna is Taurus
Anuradha lies only in Scorpio. Jupiter in the 7th house in Anuradha means the 7th is Scorpio and the lagna is Taurus. For Taurus, Jupiter rules the 8th and the 11th. The planet in the marriage house is therefore the lord of longevity, breaks, and other people's resources, and also the lord of gains. Marriage is tied to 8th-house intensity and to 11th-house income, not to a simple blessing.
Mars rules Scorpio, and Mars is a friend of Jupiter, so Jupiter is in a friend's sign, not in debilitation. Debilitation would be Capricorn. The sign is workable. The lordship is the complication.
Saturn's nakshatra on a yogakaraka
Anuradha's lord is Saturn, and its deity is Mitra, the principle of alliance. For Taurus lagna, Saturn rules the 9th and the 10th and is yogakaraka. Jupiter in the marriage house therefore sits in the nakshatra of the best functional planet for this lagna. The wedding and the public fortune are linked through that star lord.
They activate in different periods. Jupiter mahadasha lasts 16 years and spends the 8th and 11th lords sitting in the 7th. Saturn mahadasha lasts 19 years and spends the yogakaraka, including the nakshatra hold Saturn has on this Jupiter. Mitra's theme is a bond that functions, often after a Saturnian delay.
Check Venus and the Navamsa
Taurus lagna's marriage lord is Mars, because the 7th sign is Scorpio, and Venus is the lagna lord. Jupiter occupying the 7th is not the 7th lord. Mars, as 7th lord, must be judged separately, including whether Mars itself is Manglik by house. Jupiter in the 7th aspects the lagna, because every planet aspects the 7th from its seat, so this Jupiter does look back at the Taurus body.
The Navamsa of this Jupiter shows whether the 8th-and-11th lord in the 7th stays dignified in marriage. Anuradha's padas split that answer. Do not collapse them into one luck story.
