The eleventh house is friends, alliances, groups, and the future being worked toward. Jupiter there produces a wide and beneficial circle. Opportunities in this life arrive through people rather than through applications: a friend mentions the native's name in a room the native has never entered. Such people know everyone, are welcome in unrelated worlds, and take genuine pleasure in the fact that their acquaintances have nothing in common.
Hopes are held on a large scale and, unusually, are frequently realised, because the native states them aloud to a great many people and one of them turns out to be able to help. Membership matters — clubs, societies, congregations, professional bodies — and the native is on the committee within a year of joining. Benefit is mutual: this native is the connector, and dozens of people can date a change in their lives to an introduction made casually over a drink.
The cost is a circle too wide to maintain. The native is fond of two hundred people and intimate with none, and cannot always recall which of them was told what. Promises are made freely to friends and honoured selectively, which is forgiven for a long time and then, quite suddenly, is not. And hopes pitched this high leave the present looking shabby, so the native is perpetually about to begin the larger life.
