The 4th House — Home, Roots, and Inner Security

The 4th house is your psychic basement: lineage, memory, family myths, and the feeling of "home" in your body. Whether bustling or quiet, its condition reveals how you nurture yourself and how your past informs your present.

Core Teaching

• Themes: home, ancestry, parent figures, privacy, foundations
• Angular house: a pillar of life direction; security shapes expression
• Growth: repair attachment, create rituals of safety, define "home"

Rulers & Sign on the Cusp

• Cancer/Moon resonance — but your actual cusp sign and its ruler tell your personal story
• Track: where the ruler lives by house — that's where home issues play out

Practice — Building Inner Home

• Create a small ritual corner with familiar textures and scents
• Establish a weekly "home hour" for tending space or calling family
• Reframe family stories: what truth stays, what harm ends with you
