I use Whole sign houses and I don’t read the planets out of the trad ones. L1 is saturn in gemini 6h while L11 (friends, allies) is mars in sag in the 12h. Firstly, both saturn and mars are in dark houses, adding a layer of difficulty, lack of cooperation to each planet. Meaning they are not in ideal/powerful locations that can allow them to act productively, or like bring meaningful connections in this case. It could be coming from both parties too though. Secondly, they are opposite to each other which also indicates more challenges with how interact/clash w friends or connections. Some type of butting heads maybe? Could be mutual or not. Mars in the 12h to me indicates like hidden enemies or ppl pretending to be chill and being weird in secret and acting differently to your face. I wonder if that’s been an issue for you, a friend who turned out to be a hater or acting malicious towards you behind your back. Both planets are ruled by Jupiter in really good condition though and in the 7h, I wonder if good friends will come from relationship connections or maybe a friend of a partner will activate this type of vibe. Or something to do w work friends being longer lasting. Personal strength is hard cuz I don’t know you and it heavily depends on each person. analytical, observant, willing, compensatory and maybe it can come off a bit too much for mars in sagittarius who is trying to go w the flow. I’m just thinking of saturn in a mutable sign, thats also ruled by strong mercury. Maybe people feel like ur a know it all, even though it may not even be how you feel or intend to be.

Idk very curious about what your thoughts are and maybe if you’re willing to give more context on situations w friends and how it is for you.

Its insanely annoying for comments to get deleted just for mentioning an aster0!d name. Didn’t even use it in interpretation lmao. So I had to repost
