Antiscion
Also called: antiscia, contra-antiscion
A point's mirror image across the solstice axis: reflect it through 0° Cancer and 0° Capricorn and wherever it lands is its antiscion. Two bodies at equal distance from that line are held to be connected, acting together much as a conjunction does, though it is a reflection rather than an angle so nothing on the chart wheel shows it. The mirror across the EQUINOX axis instead is the contra-antiscion, read much as an opposition.
