☿ Mercury in House XI - Gains & Elder Brother
Bhrigu Sutras
Mercury in the Eleventh House
Sutras 71-75-If Mercury is in the eleventh house, the native will perform many auspicious ceremonies. He will acquire wealthy through many sources. After the age of 21 he will be blessed with children and will be wealthy and kind-hearted. If Mercury is in the house of a malefic or is associated with malefics, the native will suffer loss of wealth on account of sinful deeds. If Mercury is in his own sign or in his sign of exaltation, the native will become wealthy by performing virtuous deeds.
Comments-The above Sutras have attributed very benefic results to Mercury in the eleventh house if he is not under any malefic influence. For Leo Ascendant if Mercury is in the 11th house he will be there as lord of the 2nd and 11th houses in the 11th. This will be a very good disposition for making the native very wealthy. For Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces ascendants also Mercury in the 11th will be very beneficial.
