This idea may have come from an overprotective parent who tried to keep you from getting hurt or a family member who feared change. Sometimes there was a major loss in the family that impacted you that can’t be altered. Whatever the reason, you need to figure out the best way to handle tough situations.

Pluto In 4th House: Negative Traits
In astrology, Pluto in the 4th House’s instinct to hide from change or chaos never solves anything. It only puts more pressure on those around you to take care of it. There are times when you have to expose your true nature to move on in your life. This can be difficult, especially when you resist change of any kind. You cling to marriage and family traditions. You long to pass down certain events and customs to your family.
Because of this, you often look back more than you look forward, which can impede any progress toward spiritual enlightenment. The only way to grow mentally and emotionally is to face the present and prepare for the future. While it’s important to remember where you came from, you can’t stay hidden there no matter how safe you think it was.
