In astrology, the Fourth House is associated with home, family, roots, ancestry, privacy, emotional foundations, and the inner base of life. It is closely associated with the Imum Coeli (IC), one of the chart’s four principal angles. Within a natal chart, the Fourth House can help describe themes of belonging, security, continuity, family background, and the private foundations from which a person develops. Its interpretation is shaped by the signs, planets, aspects, and other chart factors connected with it.
