Acrab
Imum Coeli Conjunct Acrab
At the Imum Coeli the fixed star Acrab, the Scorpion's claw with its depth and malefic edge, settles into your roots and ancestry. Home and family may carry secrets, intensity, or old wounds that run deep beneath the surface of your private base. Acrab colors but does not dictate, so weigh its probing, dangerous quality against the rest of the chart before you read the foundation as poisoned.
