The fourth hourse represents your domestic or home life, and in a deeper sense the way you feel secure and your fundamental perception of yourself -- as well as the circumstances at the end of your life. The fourth house also represents the parent who primarily provided (or denied) nurturing and security during childhood; the parent who was less of an authority figure. Planets in this house will have an emotional, sensitive, creative Cancer tinge in addition to the traits of the sign they're in, and their drives may be bound up with issues of emotional security and/or directed toward the domestic realm.
