We see a lot of 戊. I very much recommend Kanji Portraits' lessons on the 戊 family.
I am not, however, finding all of those so derived -- most, but not all -- so I'll put the stragglers here and in subsequent posts.
戊 is halberd.
咸, 表外漢字, means "all" or "unity." Henshall thinks of that as trimming with a sharp weapon to make things neat and correct, plus 口 so what's neat is harmonizing: maybe it's all of us speaking in harmony.
感 is (intense) feeling: With all my heart.
憾, remorse: With two hearts, it's a doubly intense feeling. It'll stay with you, like remorse.
減, decrease: Water eventually wears away/decreases all things.
憾感減
