Venus in House 4
Venus represents what you love, what gives you pleasure and the things you value. House 4 is the house of your roots: home, family, what you inherit and your parents (in the old tradition, the father above all). It's your innermost foundation, and also where everything ends — the harbour you come back to.
In the fourth house — of home, of parents, of roots and of the end of life — Venus occupies an angle and draws its full accidental strength, at the bottom of the chart. It turns toward the house and the lineage: toward the father and the mother, toward the soil, the goods of root, the inheritance and the end of one’s days. It inclines to a pleasant and adorned home, to affection for the parents and for the native land, and to a taste for beautifying the dwelling and making of it a place of pleasure and concord. It gives a love of real estate, of gardens and of domestic seclusion, and tends to a mild end of life, surrounded by affections. The star of sweetness, set at the root of the heavens, perfumes the whole foundation of life with family harmony and attachment to the nest. Whether that root will give full blessing or troubled affection, the state in which the star is found in this depth declares.
