I found this aspect in Parker's Astrology -

Negative aspect -
These will have the same restrictive effect, if not an even greater one, than the conjunction. However, if drive and emotional energy are shown in other areas of the chart the subject will have sufficient strength of will to overcome this problem. Should the Sun or Moon make a positive aspect to Pluto, or Pluto make one to the Ascendant, the overcoming of inhibition through therapy will be worth encouraging.

Conjunction -
This is a focal point as far as the individual's attitude to personal relationships is concerned, and as a result the affections will be cooled. There can often be shyness and inhibition, so that being forthcoming and responsive in a naturally relaxed way will not be easy. Often there is above-average disappointment in the love life.
To counter these lowering traits it will help if the subject is certain of his or her ground before commitment, since emotional security is essential. Sometimes there is an attraction to an older partner. A powerful sense of duty can prevent the formation of permanent relationship, for instance with the subject devoting love, time and energy to looking after an elderly parent instead. The real reason, however, may be a deep-rooted inhibition.

Because, the semi-sextile is a weak-negative, the above interpretations should be background or supporting factors and not to be overinterpreted.
