Answer 2

In astrology, the Imum Coeli (Latin for "bottom of the sky"), IC, is the point in space where the ecliptic crosses the meridian in the north, exactly opposite the Midheaven. It marks the fourth house cusp in most house systems (this is reversed in the southern hemisphere).

The Imum Coeli is said to refer to our roots and also to the least conscious part of ourselves. It symbolizes foundations, beginnings in life, what may have been experienced through parental inheritance and homeland influences, need for security and relationships with the home and family life. It also may describe the circumstances that we will encounter at the end of our lives. Because this house was the most distant point possible from the visible part of the horoscope, Hellenistic astrologers considered the IC to be the home of the underworld, or Hades.

In many cases the IC refers to a parent — traditionally, the father. Modern astrologers may use the IC as a significator for the mother, or for both parents. There is no consensus in modern usage for which parent is best represented by the IC. The point is moot for Hellenistic astrologers who considered the fourth house the house of the father, but did not use the Imum Coeli as the cusp of the fourth house.

Using the natural houses system (see cadent houses) and modern quadrant house systems in which the IC is the cusp of the fourth house, some modern astrologers see a correspondence between the fourth house and the astrological sign Cancer. However, traditional astrologers, using whole-sign houses, never made this connection.

In whole-sign house systems the signs and houses have the same boundaries; hence the Imum Coeli can actually appear in the third house, the fourth house or fifth house; in cases of extreme terrestrial latitude, it may even fall in the second or sixth houses.

Answer 3

I think that when one has Leo on the IC, or also called the nadir, there will be much energy within the home, which is the IC (the cusp of the 4th House which is a very strong Angular House along with the 1st, 4th, 7th, 10th Houses). Leo is like a bright star wherever it is placed because Leo is ruled by Our Sun and without Our Sun we would die. So Leo IC inclines me to believe that there would be much focus on home and family. If there are any planets in the 4th House then this will strengthen the Leo Energy in your chart. The IC is the "roots" of a chart while the Midheaven (MC) is the public persona of a chart. If your 4th House is unoccupied look to your Sun for more information about your home and family, which is really what the 4th House represents. I would be inclined to think that the home might be the "Fun House" as nobody likes to have fun more than Leo. Possibly some type of entertainment (ruled by Leo) is shared in the family home. The Sun greatly brightens the IC as Cancer which is ruled by the Moon is the natural ruler of the 4th House. Hope this is helpful. For some reason the IC often is "neglected" as the Midheaven gets all of the attention. But when you think about it makes sense. When we look at a tree we always see the tall branches and leaves (10th House) but we don't actually "see" the root system (4th House). Nobody looks at a tree and says, "Man check out the root system on that tree!" But to have a beautiful tree there must be a beautiful root system as that is the true foundation of a tree. Good luck and bless you. I wish you well.
