It is a term that confuses what is happening in declination with zodiacal points. It skews declination phenomenon it as if all planets move exactly along the ecliptic, yet they don't. http://www.astro.com/astrowiki/en/Antiscion If you want to understand what is actually going on, look at the actual declination position of planet and whether they are in parallel aspect. Sun at 25° Gemini = 23N20 declination, just like Sun at 5° Cancer = 23N20 declination, but planets, and especially the Moon, do not follow the Sun's path exactly. So it is not important to know points of scion or anti-scion, but the actual declination of each planet.
This inadequate descriptor 'antiscia' transfers that back to zodiacal (longitude) terms when what we're talking about is not a longitude (east-west) relationship, but a north-south one (declination). Therefore it is only reliable for determining if Sun is in same declination as another point reliably following the Sun's path (like Asc or MC).
Scion = misrepresentation of parallel (same declination).
Contra- or anti-scion = misrepresentation of contra-parallel (opposite declination).
This sign-based misrepresentation of the sky's north-south dimension has been going on a long, long time.
