Eros in the 4th House
With Eros in the fourth house, the erotic life-force concentrates in home, family, and the private depths, so desire needs emotional safety and flourishes in intimacy behind closed doors. The gift is a tender, deep, home-rooted passion. The shadow is desire dampened by old family patterns, or passion that hides. The growth is bringing your full erotic self into your private life. At your best your passion gives your home a deep, intimate warmth.
Lean in — Bring your full erotic self into your private, intimate life.
Watch for — Let old family patterns dampen your passion at home.
