The 11th Lord in Each of the Twelve Houses
Houses here are whole signs: the ascendant’s sign is the 1st house, the next sign the 2nd, and so on round the zodiac. The 11th lord is the graha that rules the sign falling in the 11th, so it changes with the ascendant — Saturn for Aries, Jupiter for Taurus, Mars for Gemini, Venus for Cancer, Mercury for Leo, Moon for Virgo, Sun for Libra, Mercury for Scorpio, Venus for Sagittarius, Mars for Capricorn, Jupiter for Aquarius and Saturn for Pisces. In the Parashari method a bhava lord carries the matters of its house to wherever it sits; for the 11th those matters are income and gains, friends and networks, aspirations, and elder siblings.
Each page below takes one placement and works it out for all twelve ascendants: which graha, which sign it lands in, and its dignity there. None of them is a forecast. A placement is one factor; the graha’s aspects, its dispositor and the running dasha decide what it comes to in a chart.
