astrological houses

4th house

the 4th house sits at the bottom of the chart, at the root. it's about home, family, the past and the place you go back to when the world gets too loud. it shows what you carry from childhood and the kind of nest you try to build. planets here tend to speak about belonging.

what the houses are

the houses split your sky into 12 areas of life — body, money, home, love, work and so on. they're set by the exact time and place you were born, so two people born on the same day can have very different houses. a planet in a house shows where that energy tends to show up most.
