When Maya returned to her childhood home after years away, she noticed how the old creaking floor and the scent of her mother’s cooking instantly brought back a sense of safety she hadn’t felt in years. It wasn’t just nostalgia. It was a reminder: our roots shape us, silently anchoring our journey no matter where we go.

That’s the essence of the House of Home.

Why You Should Read This

This house, traditionally the Fourth House, is the foundation of your chart — the unseen soil beneath your life.

Reading this helps you:
✨ Understand your deepest emotional needs.
✨ Explore your relationship with family, ancestry, and origin.
✨ Discover how your “inner home” creates security in the outer world.

The Energy of the Fourth House

The House of Home represents belonging, roots, and emotional safety.

It covers:
• Family & Childhood — your upbringing, parents, and ancestral imprint.
• Home & Shelter — where you retreat for comfort and safety.
• Inner Security — the sense of being safe within yourself.

In balance, this house fosters emotional stability and strong family bonds. Out of balance, it can bring clinginess, unresolved family patterns, or feeling “unrooted.”

A Gentle Invitation

Pause and reflect:
• “What does home truly mean to me?”
• “Am I nurturing my inner sense of safety, or chasing it outside?”
• “Which family patterns am I ready to honor — and which to heal?”

Try this tonight:
Light a candle or place a comforting object nearby. Close your eyes and say: “I am safe, I am home, I belong.” Feel the warmth settle in your chest as you call your roots back to you.

Why It Matters

The Fourth House reminds us that no matter how far we travel, we are always carrying our foundation within. Healing our roots and creating inner safety allows us to build everything else in life with confidence and trust.

When you honor your roots, you don’t just find home — you become it.
