The Fourth House is
the house of home and
happiness. It shows
our house and
environment both
outwardly and inwardly
(the mind). It relates
to the mother and to
the domestic
situation. As such, it
shows our basic
emotional nature, our
heart or feelings, and
is thereby important
for determining our
joy or aesthetic sense
in life, our
appreciation of love
and beauty, and our
capacity for art.
Upbringing, education,
and refinement in life
are sometimes seen
through it.
The Fourth House shows
land and property, and
our ability to acquire
them. As the house of
property in general,
it shows the vehicles
we may possess, like
automobiles. Quality
of residence, Village,
assets, landed and
ancestral properties,
Orchards etc. are also
signified by this
house.
It indicates the
masses and thereby our
popularity,
particularly on a
public level.
On the psychological
level, it shows how
happy we are at home
or in our emotional
nature, and may
indicate deep
subconscious drives.
It also relates to our
capacity for rest and
relaxation. It is the
psychological house,
per se, and
afflictions to it show
emotional and mental
disorders and lack of
peace. It is probably
the most sensitive
house, and afflictions
to it can be hard to
overcome.
Spiritually, it is
indicative of our
faith and, often, of
our family religious
background, and
thereby shows our
capacity for devotion
and contemplation. It
indicates the nadir,
the lowest point in
the chart, and hence
what is internal,
hidden, and personal.
Benefic planets here
can be good for
meditation. |
