To have the Moon in the fourth house is a strong placement. It shows that you will place much importance on domestic matters.
You will be happy as long as things go well in your family. But if the situation there is inharmonious, you will not have peace of mind. You may suffer so much that you may not be truly functional at work or in other areas of your life.
The mother is likely to be the most important person in your life. You probably had a very strong bond with her, or to whomever else was the most caring when you were growing up. It’s likely that the attachment will remain for the rest of your life.
MOON IN THE FOURTH HOUSE: LOVING DOMESTIC ACTIVITIES
Cleaning and cooking could be something that you love. You may be interested in other domestic subjects, and therefore careers to do with home design, making food, or housekeeping are suitable for you. You will benefit from living near water, and it could be that in childhood you did live near a body of water.
However, with the afflicted Moon, family disharmony will be present. You might have frequently moved houses or you may experience other frequent changes when you were growing up. What you experienced during childhood deeply impacted you, and moulded who you are today.
RESPECT FOR THE HISTORY AND ROOTS
With the Moon in the fourth house, you should like talking about domestic matters and your family. You may like to remember your childhood and you may like focusing on your memories in general. Old items which you inherited from your ancestors could be in your home.
You may possess a collection of very old pictures of your family members, grandparents, and relatives. Even some highly valued antiques could be in your home, which you plan to pass on to your own children.
MEN CHOOSE WOMEN LIKE THEIR MOTHERS
With the Moon in the fourth house, men may choose for wives those women who are similar to their own mothers. Often with such a placement, a man will want to get into a long-lasting relationship. He would not waste time on others. But the rest of the chart needs looking at to be really sure of that.
If the Moon has afflictions here, it means that your family life was not happy. So to make up for it, you may try to quickly have the children of your own, to provide them that which you lacked.
However, this is risky. Because unless you are very aware, you will repeat the mistakes of your own parents. Therefore there should be no rush in having children. Instead, proceed with self-improvement. Eliminate any negative traits inherited from your parents, and only then carefully consider having a family.
