Arethusa in the 4th House
Arethusa in your 4th house brings refuge and the protected source to home and roots, a deeply natural placement. Your home is a true sanctuary, the deep spring of your nature. The gift is a profoundly protected, restoring hearth; the work is to let others into the sanctuary rather than retreating so far inward that home becomes a hiding place.
Lean in — Make home a true, restoring, protected sanctuary.
Watch for — Retreat so far inward that home becomes only a hiding place.
