Imum Coeli

In the astrological tradition, the Imum Coeli sits at the very bottom of the chart, opposite the Midheaven — the deepest, most private point. Astrologers read it as your roots: family, origins, the inner ground you stand on when no one is watching. It's the home you carry rather than the address you list, the base you retreat to and rebuild from. What's tended here quietly steadies everything the Midheaven reaches for above. The place you came from taught you what to call safety, and part of the growth here is noticing where that meaning still serves the person you're becoming and where it no longer does.
