Well done VERY GOOD description of moon in 11th house . If i were to grade it i would grade it an A grade .
It describes me very well all my life my closest friends have been females male friends i couldnt vibe with em
Isolation for prologoned periods of time was enough to cause a detoriation in my mental state especially in my childhood years my rising sign in cancer makes it worse.
The part of your Article that says Mother being A beneficial influence in my life that is true .
I have grown up with her being the breadwinner she still is to this day.
Very good I have an eleventh house moon in Aries ,so me
I would say this is accurate- it’s interesting because my mom was emotionally unavailable so I received most of my nurturing from my female elementary school counselor during my most formative years (5-9)- she gave me clothes, food, free-access to her office throughout the day, love and compassion… and I fully believe my 11th house moon is representative of her as the nurturing mother in my chart<3… even tho it is in opposition to my north node in cancer in the 6th house, which is far more reflective of my real mom. iykyk. great article, thank you for your knowledge!!
Thanks so much for sharing!
My moon is in the 11th house (virgo) i would say i am an extremely open minded person and i am very much a humanitarian believing all people should be treated equally and fairly. i help others and feel when i help others the universe blesses me back and i feel personally validated knowing i was able to help someone in need. I also grew up with a really tough mother who expected perfectionism out of me. and while in my youth i resented her due to her mental health issues as well as her harsh abusive nature she has been a huge financial gain for me. she does financially help me with a lot throughout my entire life. As for a children i have always thought i’d end up a step mom or adopt a kid i even joke about wanting to. so thats really funny to see. i find this extremely accurate for me personally.
Nailed it! I’m a Cancer moon in the 11th, although with Pluto in the 1st, people are usually very slow to see that I am such an open-minded softy!!! Love your site! Thanks!
Full Moon placed in the 11th with Jupiter, however, it’s 29:30 degrees and Moon owns the 12th. Some say the end degrees make it strong, others say it makes it weak. Mercury owns the house where the Moon is placed and Mercury is in the 6th. I’m told that 6th house is the house of enemies and what may seem like a friend will act like an enemy. Mother provided me with everything!
