What does the 11th house represent in astrology?
Also known as: Labha Bhava, house of gains
The 11th house (Labha Bhava) governs gains, income, the fulfilment of desires, friends, networks and elder siblings.
Where the 2nd house is accumulated wealth, the 11th is inflow — salary rises, profits, rewards and the circles that bring them. Jupiter is its natural karaka.
It is the strongest Upachaya house: nearly any planet here tends to deliver material growth over time, which is why classical texts treat even malefics in the 11th as ultimately gainful.
