Transit Jupiter in the 11th House: Friends, Groups and Hopes

Transit Jupiter in the 11th house is a period of about one year in which friendships, groups and hopes for the future expand, and a person grows through the right people. In traditional astrology the 11th house is the house of joy for Jupiter; the planet is especially at ease here. Also known as the house of the Good Spirit, this area describes supporters and the social side of one's dreams.

Who comes into your life with transit Jupiter in the 11th house?

A new circle of friends, a professional association, a volunteer project, an online community or a team gathered around a shared goal are typical scenes of this year. The visibility gained in one's career the year before turns into a network here: work that comes through a friend's recommendation, support from a group, a mentor met at an event. The effect builds as Jupiter nears the cusp and becomes noticeable in the weeks it touches natal planets.

Hopes grow as well. A person dares to dream bigger about the next five or ten years, and some of those dreams take their first concrete step this year. Traditionally this house also describes the income that comes from one's career, so the rewards of effort may increase in this period.

The fatigue of being everyone's friend

The shadow is superficiality. Saying yes to too many invitations and too many groups can create ties that never deepen and social obligations that never end. Idealism can go too far as well: pouring time and money into a cause or community that gives nothing back. Treating every suggestion from friends as an opportunity is another typical mistake of this year.

Practical advice: among the people met this year, choose those who truly face the same direction and keep those bonds alive. When Jupiter enters the 12th house, the crowd gives way to a quieter year.
