| The 11th House | |
|
This is the area of life that encompasses friendships, income received from a profession, groups that one belongs to which are tied to the 10th house, humanitarian pursuits, love received from others, and situations which one has no control over. In addition it covers what one wants most out of life and step/foster/adopted children. |
| Moving through life people gain and lose friendships along the way. The types of friends one might have is seen through the sign of the house as well as the planets residing in the house. Pisces may indicate friendships that are nebulous; Scorpio may show friendships that have deep bonds; Gemini can have two different sets of friends while Capricorn can limit the number of friends one wants in their life. Venus can indicate friends who are artistic while Uranus can show ones who are counter-culture. Saturn represents things that are old so friendships may be older individuals or ones that last a long time. Mercury represents things that are young and can show younger friends which are fleeting. How one handles or makes friends is seen in the aspects between the house ruler and planets in the house to other planets in the chart. | |
| At some point an individual experiences joining a group. This group will be tied to the 10th house in some capacity. It may be a group from work; it may be one that will further one's achievements or one that brings status; it could even be a group that a parent belongs to as well. The signs in the house and planets within the house show the types of groups that may interest one. Aries could indicate an association of EMT's (emergency medical technicians) or hairdressers. Mars may be the NRA. Taurus may be banking or cosmetician groups while Venus may indicate bakers. Gemini or Sagittarius can indicate travel clubs. Cancer might be a group that is for women only while Leo may show children groups or sporting associations. | |
| Part of life is also seeking the most one wants from it as well as setting goals. The signs and planets provide the clues to knowing what one identifies for themselves. Libra may show one who wishes a balanced and cooperative life but may be too busy having a good time to work on goals. Leo may indicate pursuing a successful life that will provide ample time for entertainment. Sagittarius may seek to discover and travel the world while Pisces quest is for spiritual integration. Neptune can show difficulty determining goals; Mercury changing goals, and Pluto secret goals. | |
| Where the 5th house shows love given, the 11th house demonstrates one's capacity for receiving love. Capricorn can show reluctance to accept love. Aquarius may indicate an eccentric attitude in acceptance. Virgo may analyze it or only accept perfection. The Sun can indicate reveling in love received while Jupiter shows an over abundance. | |
