What it means

Often the one who organises the school reunion, you find emotional security through belonging. This house covers friends, groups, networks, hopes, causes and the wider community. You feel safest among friends, in clubs, teams or communities where you know your place. Many people with this placement keep friends from school for decades and act as the one who organises the reunion and remembers everyone’s birthday.

Your hopes and dreams carry emotional weight, so you may care about a cause in a very personal way. The Moon changes, and so can your circle: friendship groups may shift as your life changes, and you may feel those changes keenly. As a succedent house, the 11th is about what you build and keep, so the friendships and networks you invest in can become one of your most valuable resources over time.

Love and relationships

You often fall for friends, and you want a partner who is also your best friend. Your partner needs to get on with your friends, because your social life is part of your emotional life. You may feel uneasy with a partner who wants you to themselves. Shared causes and group activities can be part of what holds you together.

Work and money

Work in community organisations, charities, social enterprises, membership groups, networks and team-based roles suits you. You do best when you feel part of a team and share its aims. Your network often brings opportunities, and friends may become colleagues or business partners. Being isolated at work tends to lower your mood.

Strengths

You build and keep friendships that last for decades.
You make groups feel welcome and cared for.
You put feeling into causes and inspire others to help.

Challenges

You may depend on friends’ approval to feel secure.
Changes in your circle can hit harder than you expect.
Group moods can sway your own opinions.
