The eleventh house is where we find our identity within a group; it symbolizes one-to-many relationships as distinct from Seventh house one-to-one relationships. It rules friends, groups, our social circle, membership in societies and organizations, ideals and aspirations shared by the groups to which we belong, and in general, situations in which we have to change our behavior to get along with more than one other person at the same time. Planets in the eleventh house show the kind of friends we attract to us, or the kinds of energy we experience in relation to groups. Many planets in this house indicate that we live a large part of our lives in connection with our friends or groups, and often need group support to accept or value what we are doing.

Astronomically speaking, the eleventh house is that one-twelfth sector of the local sky midway between the Midheaven and the eastern horizon (see above picture) occupied by planets two to four hours after they rise.

With Mars (your energy) in your eleventh house, you put a lot of energy into your friends, groups, goals and objectives. And you know how to use your friends and their positions to further your goals, so make sure this doesn't become an abuse. The wrong kinds of friends can cause a great deal of trouble with this position, so be discriminating in your choices and know how to say "No." You're very inventive and idealize a lot, and if you have little or no earth (no personal planets in Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn) in your chart, may need to be more practical in achieving your goals. You have real community spirit, a strong social life, and love to work with groups.

Jupiter and Saturn are the first two planets beyond the personal planets: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars. They are less personal by sign position in that they stay 1 and 3 years respectively in a sign. They are equally personal by house position, however, since all 12 planets move into the next house every two hours due to the earth's rotation on its axis. In common they act somewhat as volume controls for the planets they contact and the houses they occupy: Jupiter expands and increases the energy of a planet it aspects, whereas Saturn contracts, limits or diminishes the energy of a planet it aspects.

With Jupiter in your eleventh house you love your social life and attract many benefits through it and friends. Your friends often help you achieve your goals and objectives. If your Jupiter is afflicted (hard aspects from Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto; or, to a lesser extent, Jupiter in Gemini, Virgo or Capricorn), overindulgence in social life, extravagance, and the wrong choice of friends can dissipate your energy and lead to your undoing. If Jupiter is not afflicted, however, you have good intuition and judgment, a lot of help from your friends, and potential benefits through travel.
