The lord of the 11th house in the 3rd house of the horoscope

The lord of the 11th house in the 3rd house links gains with personal initiative, communication and skills: income grows through bold steps, texts, media, trade and short journeys. Both houses are upachayas, so the results of the placement usually improve with age and experience.

The 3rd house is effort, courage, younger brothers and sisters, communication, manual skills. The 11th house is the fruit of these efforts. At the same time the 11th house is the 9th from the 3rd, that is, it shows the luck of younger brothers and sisters, so the theme of siblings as a whole becomes prominent. Both houses belong to the trishadaya (3, 6, 11) — the group of houses of desire and struggle, so the energy of the placement is active and sometimes restless.

How it manifests

• earnings through texts, communications, sales, advertising, blogs, logistics and brokerage;
• brothers, sisters, neighbours and colleagues help the person reach profitable projects;
• enterprise and readiness to take risks for the sake of results;
• several small sources of income instead of one large one;
• friends are people of action, with whom it is easy to start joint ventures.

Strong and weak lord

A strong 11th lord in the 3rd house gives confidence, fortunate contacts and income from skills the person has developed himself. A weak lord makes the road to profit more winding. Thus, with Cancer lagna Venus, ruler of the 11th, ends up in the 3rd house in Virgo, the sign of its debilitation: creative and communication projects bring income after some reworking, and diplomacy is useful with brothers and sisters. With Virgo lagna the Moon, the 11th lord, falls in the 3rd house into Scorpio, also a sign of debilitation — emotional decisions in business should be double-checked. Aspects of benefics and a strong Mars, the natural significator of the 3rd house, noticeably soften the picture.
