Your Sun in Gemini makes you generous with your time, friendship, and possessions.

Sun in the 4th House
With the Sun in the 4th House, the Sun’s placement suggests that your sense of being is introverted and protected. You are likely to feel some need to be sheltered from the harshness and danger of the world. Nurturing and bonding with family often become more important in your self-development than exploring the world or expressing yourself in it. You generally will look for a sense of security so that your being can rest safely.
As an individual with your Sun in the 4th House, your task is to prepare a secure place for yourself and, in the process, often for others as well. You are likely to first look for that sense of security within your home and through your family. Often, the more you can draw your family around you, the more real and alive you feel. Thus, the focus of your energy is often on family matters or the home – the place where the family is brought together and finds security.
Having your Sun in the 4th House, emotional security is also likely to be important to you, particularly emotional security that is derived from nurturing, family support, a sense of heritage and community, and the maintenance of close bonds. However, you may be driven to realize a self-referenced emotional security that is based on confidence in your own inner foundation and rootedness. Your sense of being is often ultimately grounded within your own subconscious.

You lack confidence beyond the small realm within which you have chosen to confine yourself.
Having your Sun in the 4th House, your life and identity is dependent on your receiving emotional reward from family members and you may obsessively or neurotically “care” for them in order to “earn” these rewards. You may constantly worry, partly as a means to justify your existence to yourself and partly in fear that something may happen to your support system. You are afraid to leave your close, comfortable world to explore either your outer or inner world and you try to bind others to your own limitations.
Focus of Your Self-Identity
As an individual with your Sun in the 4th House, you tend to derive your identity from your domestic environment and from your close and family relationships.
