Many people, even those who don't believe in zodiac signs, in what the stars have to show us, or in astrology as a whole, have shown interest in their own personal horoscope. In this case we're not talking about the horoscopes that come out in the media every day but about the true personal horoscope that's made for you and you alone.
Computer programs can make one for you quickly and easily, as long as you know your exact data. This means that you have to not only know where and when you were born but also the exact time of your birth. This is extremely important when making your personal horoscope because it requires calculating the precise location of the planets at the moment of your birth.
After you've made a personal horoscope you'll encounter problems trying to read it, especially when you come across terms such as ASC, DSC, MC and IC. These stand for Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven and Imum Coeli respectively. In other words, ASC is the easternmost point where the planets begin to ascend, DSC is the westernmost point of their descent, MC is the northernmost point marking the moment when they were at their highest in the sky and finally, IC, the southernmost point when the planets stop their descent and begin to ascend once more. The IC is the one we will be looking at now.
The Imum Coeli point, or IC, symbolizes the 4th House in your horoscope. When analyzing your natal chart you'll notice that it's divided into 12 Houses and 12 zodiac signs. Each House shows different aspects of your life, providing you information about your likeness and so on.
The Imum Coeli point, symbolizing the 4th House, represents your relationships in the home. It is looked at once you have already gotten an idea about the first 3 Houses. It shows the roots of the person, their attitude toward their parents, birthplace and traditions.
It is determined by the Midheaven and provides exceptionally valuable information which you can make use of and get to know yourself better. Because by learning more about your roots you'll also find out a lot about your personality. This is why the Imum Coeli angle needs to be examined thoroughly in every individual horoscope.
