Ketu in the 11th house of the solar return

Ketu in the 11th house of the solar return is usually not bad: income may arrive unexpectedly, the circle of friends narrows to the closest ones, and wishes become simpler and therefore more attainable.

The eleventh house of the annual chart is gains, friends, communities and the fulfilment of goals. Malefic planets traditionally give results here, and Ketu makes them quiet. Rahu on the axis stands in the 5th house and strengthens interest in creativity, study and games of chance.

What the year brings

• Unexpected income, often from old acquaintances or long-standing projects.
• Less social life, more trust in a few friends.
• Cooling towards collective goals if they do not coincide with one's own.

The weak side is disappointment in some friends and communities; sometimes distance from elder brothers or sisters.

What changes the picture

A strong dispositor of Ketu makes gains stable and support reliable. A weak or afflicted one reduces income and adds uncertainty. The natal background is Ketu in the 11th house; the area of life — the 11th house of the horoscope.

Comparing the annual and natal charts is easiest when you have an accurate birth chart calculation at hand.
