Sun, Moon and Mercury in the 11th house: the reading
All three grahas are comfortable or better in the 11th house, so the trio works with the native here. Inside the trio, Sun and Moon do best here: The 11th is an upachaya where the Sun excels: the new Moon pair here gives gains through authority and personal effort, an influential network of elders and officials, ambitions fulfilled by will, and an elder sibling who matters. Moon and Mercury are the pair to watch: The Moon and Mercury in the 11th house give gains through trade, communication and a wide popular network, many friends and ambitions realised through people.
When it works
