ANTISCIA 2019
/Reflections / Shadows / Symmetries = Antiscia
Planets in antiscia and contra-antiscia reflect each other across the cardinal axis. This axis is formed by the four seasonal turning points: the zero degree entry point of each cardinal sign (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn). The cardinal axis is essentially the node of the Sun and is a point we all share. It is the intersection of two Great Circles: the ecliptic (which is the sun's path, i.e., the tropical zodiac,) and the earth's equator. Planets connect in antiscia when they reflect or mirror one another across this axis. Like a planetary statement made by two planets in aspect or conjunction, planets in antiscia make a terrestrial (or mundane) statement: a statement for the world which is relevant to everyone. Therefore planets in antiscia can provide insight into the energy of the day, as well as help to enrich your natal and dynamic chart delineations. More on antiscia here...
EQUINOX 2019
Solstice 2019
To use the list of monthly antiscia below, simply blend the meanings of planets in combination.
All connections are within 30 minutes of arc or less.
Dates showing one planet indicate its ingress onto the cardinal axis (meaning it's at zero degrees cardinal and ought to feature prominently that day).
Those with *c indicate contra-antiscia: symmetrical arrangement around the Aries/Libra axis: the signs of equal rising.
All others are antiscia, meaning they are in positions of equal power (sharing equal light).
Ketu = south lunar node. Rahu = north lunar node
For delineating planetary pairs, you may want to utilize books I reference on this page, or use an online resource like this one by John Sandbach. Or simply apply basic astrological understanding of the planets. Think of the pairs and combinations as conjunctions; and remember you can consider their shared or reflected dignity and reception.
For 2019, note the long-standing Jupiter Saturn +Node antiscia from July into late September.
Jupiter + Saturn = Patience and Perseverance [Ebertin]
Jupiter/Saturn = Node: The desire to terminate an association. (Yes, please.)
