When deciphering a birth chart, we need to consider
any planet located within a 2 degree orb of approaching the IC (Imum Coelias
which is Latin for the bottom of the sky). We also have to consider a planet within a 3
degree orb separating from the IC as both of these circumstances will be
significant. The closer the planet is to
the exact degree of the IC, the more powerful and significant its influence is
in our lives.
The IC’s energy is associated with our early
upbringing and our early life experiences, whether this is on a conscious or unconscious
level. It also associated with our
Mother (or most nurturing parent), our home and our roots. The energies are also associated with with
our family and end of life conditions.
A planet on the IC assists us in accessing our
unconscious needs and wants, as well as our access to early childhood
experiences that have played a significant role in our early development. Since the natural ruler of the IC or fourth
house cusp is Cancer, this house is also identifies our nurturing response to
our environment and reflects our comfort level in our home environment and with
family. The planet closely tied to the
IC assists us or challenges us (depending on the aspects it receives from other
natal planets) in fulfilling our own personal emotional needs and comfort zone
within our close personal surroundings. In early childhood, this is often depicted
from our close personal relationship with our peers, our parents and close
family members.
Since the fourth house or IC speaks in terms of our
roots and root behaviours, a planet in conjunction with this degree in our
chart has an important influence and works in such a way that we either feel
comfortable in our own skin or feel as though there is something missing. The planet and its identity has a great
influence on how we nourish and protect ourselves as well as connect and
generate psychic energies which nurtures us on a deep instinctual level.
If, for example, you have Saturn conjunct this
position and poorly aspected in your chart, there would have been some
struggles with authority or the father figure in early life. Life may have felt like a testing ground and,
although it may have been met with obstructions and difficulties in many cases,
as life progresses, it also builds character and solidifies the core of who we
are.
If, for example, you have Venus on this cusp and it is
well aspected, the potential for finding love and affection in your early
environment is highly likely and you would have felt protected which in turn
provide you with concrete beliefs that you are likely to be protected and loved
throughout this life.
As you can see, much depends on the planet involved,
its instinctive energies, how it is aspected in the chart and above all else,
what you choose to do with these energies as life progresses. Even under the harshest of conditions, the
potential to rearrange your life and mold it into something positive is always
available. It may take some time and
diligent work on your part but life can always be altered to suit your best
interests, much depends on your current frame of mind and what you believe is
your true potential.
