Known as the house of home and family, this house represents all things domestic (like your physical shelter, family life, and ancestry). In astrology, the moon represents what you need to feel comfortable and safe. The moon's influence over the Fourth House encourages you to find what makes you feel at peace in your domestic life. Cancer is an emotionally sensitive and intuitive sign. Its rule over the Fourth House calls you to recognize your own emotional needs.
