The Eleventh House: Friends and Future Goals
The eleventh house covers communities, networks, friends and the hopes you work toward with other people. Where the fifth house is solitary creativity, the eleventh is shared effort: teams, movements, groups you belong to on purpose.
Reading Yours
The sign on the eleventh house describes the kind of friendships you seek. A fire sign looks for adventurous friends; an earth sign, loyal ones; an air sign, stimulating ones; a water sign, emotionally close ones. The house is also connected to long-term aspirations, which is why it is sometimes called the house of hopes and wishes.
Friends, Groups and Goals
The eleventh house makes a neat prompt for a social audit. Who are your people? Which groups do you belong to by choice? What are you working toward that depends on other people? Many people discover that their eleventh-house theme (for example a love of online communities or a habit of organizing events) is a larger part of their life than their career.
Hopes and Wishes
Traditional astrologers called this the house of hopes and wishes, because long-term aspirations usually depend on allies. Planets here are read as influences on the kind of friendships you form and on what you hope to see in the future, at least for people you care about.
