(this might also be extremely significant for people who have planets on the IC or MC natally, especially if those happen to be personal planets and or planets ruling relationship houses)

Anyway did you read this?

Whenever the IC is involved in synastry, it IS a very potent tie, given the privacy and instinctual nature of it. Deeply personal.

I tend to draw men with their MOON and ASC here. Not shocking. Rather fitting, my MOON is seated on my husband's, too.

Very sweet. I've said before, time slowed down around him.

Scorpio Saturn conjunct IC (me)

Painful. Sexy. The realization and restriction of dreams. This is also a Saturn Moon opposition aspect...

My Guardian's ASC is on mine, and my MOON is on my ex-Twin's (along with his MOON on mine, albeit widely).

Do you mean this here?

You could picture the chart with the houses-wheel as an image of the day with the Sun making his circle.

When the Sun is rising, it will be on the ASC (actually this means that if we have planets in the 1st house, they are still in the dark, because they are BEFORE The rising of the sun, as the sun moves from ASC to MC to DC to IC; it also explains why planets in the 1st house are not always very conscious, but very instinctual).

However, if the Sun is high up in the sky, it will be at the MC.

Now, when the Sun has reached the IC it is midnight.
Midnight. What does this word, that time of day trigger inside you? What characteristic does this time have?
It is dark outside, everyone is asleep, hopefully you, too, so then this is the time where the unconsciousness reigns, the deeper layers of your soul through your dreams.

Or you may be awake, but chances are high, you are the only one. You are alone with yourself, without any distractions of the day. You come face to face with yourself, the naked you. And this time of the day feels "strange"; even bio-chemical something changes. The parasympathetic nervous system takes over from the sympatheic nervous system of the day.
It makes you calm down and "draws you inside yourself" so to speak.

If you`re not alone at that time, chances are also good, that you might have amazing sex or deep profound conversations that take a very private intimate turn.
Often you don´t want to know about that anymore in the next morning, because you have been so naked at that time (emotionally and physically maybe).

However, deep in the night,w hen the Sun is on the IC (and not seen!), you will only let those people in, who are real close to you. You won`t get a visit by the postman or the neighbour at that time of night.
No superficial contacts

You can see it like this, The Sun has disappeared, and the Moon reigns. Moon as the ruling planet of the 4th house, which begins with the IC!
And Moon represents emotions, feelings, not like the romantic ones, which are often a "Venus-thing", a DC-thing (about 7 p.m, when you start meeting your friends and potential lovers).
No, I`m talking of emotions in the sense of really touching you inside your soul.
In that respect Moon and IC are pretty much the same.

Also Robert Blashke stated that the closest soulmates will always ALWAYS without exception have either conjunctions or solstice-conjunctions to their IC.

As the lowest point in your chart (on the invisible side of the earth, representing midnight actually) the IC also represents your deepest core, your soul. Your naked (and most vulnerable) essence.

From there it is only a little step to arrive at the conclusion that it represents to home; as home is being thought to be the place where you can be yourself (of course we all know that not all "homes" will allow that). But as a toddler you couldn´t do anything else but expressing your instinctive needs and your "naked soul". That is the 4th house.
And at the end of your life you return to that "nakedness", as the upcoming moment of death is approaching and this awareness of your mortality will bring you very close to who you really are. Your most primal fears and emotions.
the 8th house is also about these primal experiences, but in regard to other people, how you relate to them, how your own emotional needs merge with theirs.

In the 4th house you are basically "alone" with your emotional core. But if you let someone in there, there can be a feeling of total merging on a soullevel.
Or you might dislike the other person, as they get "under your skin" and you might not want them there.

The IC is the core of your soul, your very essence. There`s nothing deeper in yours oul than the IC. And that is probably the reason it`s often hidden; it`s such a vulnerable point, that people tend to not show it too easily; sometimes they don´t even look there themselves! If you let someone come in there and he violates that sensitive core of you, this could have very destructive consequences for you. On the other hand someone who touches your IC and loves you for that, for your core, can make you feel like you finally have come home.
Blashke sais that in soulmate relationships there are ALWAYS conjunctions or solstice -conjunctions of one`s planets to the IC of the partner. PErsonally I have noticed he is right, and even more so, in most cases the IC or ruler of IC connects to the ruler of the other angles, like DC-ruler conjunct IC for example.
Hmm, let`s put it this way, at the IC you`re naked, completely stripped bare (your soul is at least), defenceless (this is actually the place in your soul you try to protect by building walls and high defenses), it`s the most receptive point, and from own experience I can say you will never forget the man that touches you so deep inside.
