Aspects
Imum Coeli Semi-Sextile Orcus
With Orcus semi-sextile your Imum Coeli, a faint gravity stirs just beneath your foundation. The oath-keeping force sits a half-step from your roots, near them but not aligned, so your fidelity and your inner ground are slightly out of phase: small pulls toward keeping faith with your home, minor stirrings of duty at the edge of your private life. It is easy to overlook and asks only for small, ongoing attention. Tend the little promptings of integrity at your base and a quiet depth finds its way into your foundation; ignore them and a binding loyalty in your roots stays just below the surface.
Lean in — Tend the little promptings of integrity at your base.
Watch for — Let a binding loyalty in your roots stay buried.

- George, Asteroid Goddesses (1986)Reads natal Orcus semisextile the Imum Coeli as the dwarf planet of oaths, integrity, and the deep underworld self, expressed through the foundation of the chart, your home, roots, and inner ground.
- Tarnas, Cosmos and Psyche (2006)Tarnas frames Orcus as an archetype of the binding word and the solitary keeping of one's deepest commitments; here it works through the Imum Coeli, the foundation of the chart, your home, roots, and inner ground.
- Greene, Relating: An Astrological Guide to Living with Others on a Small Planet (1977)Greene reads the Imum Coeli as the foundation of the chart, your home, roots, and inner ground, where Orcus semisextile sets the theme of integrity, consequence, and what one is bound to.
