4th House in Synastry Chart Overlays...

The fourth house is about security
and comfort centered around the home and family.

The first of the water houses, the fourth house, is mysterious. Yet, amazingly still not as mysterious as the other two water houses, the eighth and twelfth houses. Because the water houses are about emotion and feelings, they can be complicated. Feelings are not easy to define and describe with words, yet they are the most powerful forces in our lives. The fourth house describes those feelings that begin in childhood with our family, and remain with us throughout our lives. The fourth house is ruled by Cancer and the moon. It is the most private house and its center is family and the home.

Therefore, these are the factors involved with planets landing your fourth house in synastry chart overlays. Home and family may or may not be considered romantic. It depends on your definition of romance. However, regardless of any romantic element, your partner's planets landing in your fourth house will make you feel connected, possibly deeply connected. If it feels romantic, great! But it probably isn't going to be a skyrocketing, fireworks romance. Instead it's more of a familiar, comforting and safe feeling, like you've known this person forever and you belong together.

They will 'fit in' with your sense of home and family, and there will be a natural sense of mutual caring. Your partner's moon falling in your fourth house will have the deepest impact in creating these feelings because the fourth house is ruled by the moon. The sun will have a powerful impact also, but will also lend an invigorating element to the mix. The sun may make you feel more alive and inspired when you and your partner are together and involved in family activities. Mercury gives its usual boost in conversation and activity level perhaps causing conversations to be centered around family topics. Venus will add comfort, ease and beauty to the fourth house and could show itself as a desire to build a beautiful home and live a sensual lifestyle together. You will feel that your relationship is easy and it will be peaceful. The proper tool to stand up for your rights in the home and family setting will be found in your partner's Mars falling in your fourth house. You may even find that with your partner around, you suddenly have the power to stand up to your mother's demands or your sister's nagging. It will add a powerful feeling here. Finding your partner's Jupiter here may lead you to shop for a bigger house together or move to a place where there are wide open spaces. Jupiter always wants to expand. It may even cause dreams for a big family with many children. It will lend an easy-going attitude to matters of home and family and will likely create a fun atmosphere.

Saturn, of course, can go a number of ways in lending it's serious, restricted nature to this house. It could put a sour note on home and family, making this area seem like a burden from which you yearn to escape. It may seem like your partner takes home and family far too seriously. Of course, Saturn could also simply lend a formality and structure to home and family that could serve in keeping the family bonded together more tightly.
