Determining
Solstice Points (Antiscia) for Synastry Work
(Techniques for Determining Compatibility)
How to Find the
Solstice Point (Antiscia) of a Planet or Point
To find the Antiscion Point or
Solstice Point of the Sun in your chart, for example, you would
subtract the degrees in longitude of the Sun from 30 degrees and
finding the corresponding sign from this list:
Gemini-Cancer
Leo-Taurus
Virgo-Aries
Libra-Pisces
Scorpio-Aquarius
Sagittarius-Capricorn
My Sun's position is 25 degrees
Virgo 21 minutes. I find the Antiscia of my Sun by subtracting 25
degrees 21 minutes from 30 degrees (or 29 degrees 60 minutes) to
arrive at 4 degrees 39 minutes. From the list above, we find that
the Antiscia of the sign Virgo is always Aries. Therefore my
Solstice Sun is 4 degrees Aries 39 minutes.
My Moon's natal position is 28
Pisces 25. To find the Antiscion point, I subtract this degree from
30 degrees, to arrive at 1 degree 35. The Antiscia of the sign
Pisces is always Libra, so I arrive at the degree of my Solstice
Moon: 1 Libra 35.
