In simple words
A birth chart is split into 12 houses, and each house is an area of life. The 4th house is about: home, family, roots, privacy.
Planets sitting in this house in your chart bring their energy to this area of life. An empty house is normal; it still matters. Houses need your exact birth time.
What the 4th house covers
It describes the place where you recharge, your relationship with family and ancestry, and the inner foundations you build your life on. Planets here make home and belonging central themes. It also speaks of what you return to later in life.
