The 4th House, also known as the Imum Coeli (IC), represents your home, family, and foundational roots. Imum Coeli, Latin for "bottom of the sky," signifies the most private and deepest part of your chart, reflecting your innermost self and emotional core. The sign on the cusp of your 4th House provides insights into your core emotional needs, how you nurture yourself and others, and the kind of home life that brings you comfort and stability.

Learning to find your own sense of identity and emerge from your family background as a unique individual brings a deep sense of emotional security. You might view your family or your early life with rose tinted spectacles and may need to set some gentle inner boundaries to keep you grounded in your current reality.

Sensitive to the environment and people around you, home can be a space for sanctuary and retreat. You may long for spiritual connection and feel a sense of stability when you’re able to connect with something greater than yourself.
