In episode 468 astrologers Chris Brennan and Nick Dagan Best discuss what it means when the ruler of the 4th house is placed in each of the 12 houses in a birth chart. This is the second episode in a two-part series on the meaning of the fourth house in astrology. In the previous episode we talked about the significations of the 4th house, and looked at examples of the ruler of the Ascendant in the 4th. In this episode we continue that research by going systematically through each of the 12 houses and looking at examples to understand what it means when the ruler of the 4th house is in different houses in the chart. When the ruler of the 4th house is located in different houses it will connect the 4th house with other areas of the person's life. The 4th house is primarily associated with home, family, parents, private life, and end of life, and these are the main topics that we focus on in this episode. In this episode we experimented with incorporating some listener submissions into the episode, to complement the celebrity examples.
