PRAEDICTIO Astrologica The great and vvonderfull Prognostication for the yeare of our Lord 1598. Written by Rodulphus Grapheus Doctor of Phisick in the Towne of Deuenter Translated out of Dutch into English by W. P LONDON Imprinted by Iohn Wolfe with the assent of Rychard Watkins 1598. Chap. 1. Of the enterance of the Sunne in the first point of Aries and of the Planets that are Lordes of the yeare WE read in the holy scriptures that great kingdomes and princely Cities for their sinnes haue beene altered and brought vnder the gouernement of strange nations and that many townes for their wickednesse haue béene punished and brought in subiection and Christ sayth that we neuer know him but when wee are visited with some affliction I find by right calculation that this yeare of our Lorde 1598. according to the meridian of the towne of Deuentre and other places lying vnder 52. degrées and 40. minutes and after the olde stile beginneth vpon the 10. of March and according to the new stile vpon the 20. of March in the afternoone a little after 12. of the clocke when the sunne entreth into Aries at which time it standeth in the middle of the element and then night and day through all the worlde are all of one length and as Ouid saith noua temporisaetas then the Sunne by his heat openeth the earth and reuiueth it which by the cold of the Winter season was deade and withered making grasse trées and all thinges else so fayre and gréene that it maketh all creatures liuing to reioyce and therevpon all learned men are of opinion that this time of the year the world heauen and earth and all the creatures therein were created and many wonderfull workes of God performed therein as the deliuery of the children of Israel out of Aegipt the conception of the Virgin Mary and after that his passion death and resurrection vpon the same day I find Saturne ascendent Eastwarde in the 24. degrée of Sagittarius in the second house Iupiter in the 2. degrée of Cancer in the 8. house Mars in the 4. degrée of Taurus the 6. house the Sunne in the first degrée of Aries and the 4. house Venus in the thirde degrée of Aries and the 4. house hard by the Sunne Mercury in Pisces the Moone in the 11. degrée of Pisces and the 4. house the Dragous heade in the first degrée of Gemini in the seuenth house and so beginneth this year 1598. whereby we plainely sée that the Moone and Mercury are Lords of the yeare and Mars assistant and are both founde in a watery signe The rest of the planets for the most parte are weake and badly plac'st wherevpon we must grounde our iudgement and procéede accordingly making the situation and coniunction of euery Planet whereby it is found that this shall bee none of the best yeares for that the effects of the yeares 95.96 and 97. do yet continue whereby I iudge that this yeare many craftie and secreat enterprises will bee wrought both by water and by land and that there is a speciall matter pretended which will be to the ouerthrow and aduancement of diuers persons whereby certayne prouinces shall bee brought into extreame misery and desolation specially such countries as lie vnder Cancer and her quadrangle as Brabant Flanders Fraunce and the prouinces bordering vppon it Ciprianus Leouitius saith touching the reuolution of this yeare that it threatneth vs with much rayne great sicknesse and bloudy and cruell warres as also that certaine Princes and great men both spirituall and temporall shal be ouerthrowne and cast in prison whereby much misery and grieuous alterations shall happen among the common people for that in this reuolution of the world the effect of two eclipses one of the Sunne the other of the Moone shall happen Wherefore I counsell all good Christians to be watchfull that these thinges come not sodainly vppon them and so I will ende this Chapter with the wordes of Dauid Ni Deus aedificet frustrà domus illa paratur Quam volet humanus constituisse labor Psal 1●6 Ni Deus inuigilet frustra custode tuentur Chap. 2. Of good and euil fortune strife contention betweene men and women being young and louely like Venus dearlinges vpon whom all the world doth cast their eyes FOr that mans nature is addicted to hear and sée strange thinges I haue here set downe the signification of the heauenly influences of this yeare 1598. which I write to giue cause of watchfulnesse to carelesse men I find by the right calculation of the prouincial figure that louely Venus coupeled with Iupiter and Mercurie signifieth good fortune to Venus children women yong maides and all swéete Venus dearlinges which gladly take all that is giuen them they shall haue good fortune by gifts presentes Iewelles apparell and other toyes which if they haue not it will be great griefe vnto them I finde the Planet Venus well placed in Aquarius which signifieth great fauour to all women in generall as well spiritual as temporal women shall by nature flourish and be loftie they shall be much beloued and diuers that are of meane parentage and degrée shall by mariage rise and be preferred to high estate but some of them must take care that when they are at the highest that they kéep themselues at that stay such proude lordly women that often stumble at a straw and are soone troden vpon the toes which alway sing the vnpleasant song they shall cause great sorrow and grief vnto their husbands by chiding and contention for that a woman which chideth without reason doth often driue her husbande out of dores whereby shall arise strife hartes griefe mourning and other misfortunes I finde Mars and Venus in coniunction Dabit incestas libidines fornicationes adulteria coniunctiones virorum ac mulierum horrendas abominandas In the last part of the yeare I find there will bée great deceit and vntruth among men whom women and maides shall féede with fayre wordes and pay them with the like standing much vpon their credites and reputations also I find the Planet Venus to bee retrograde which signifieth great quarrels and contentions with such as men haue made of their secreat counsels where vpon shall follow griefe sorrow and diuers diseases You shall likewise heare of great strife betwéene men and their wiues whereby controuersie will arise so that many weddinges shall be holden where there wil be no musicke and where the Lorde or rulers of the land shall be betrayed I find also in the prouinciall figure that Iupiter is eleuated aboue Venus which signifieth that womens nature is alwayes desirous of pleasure for they are the mother of our generation They shall also bee fortunate in childbearing and are worthy of honour in all places The quadrangle of Mars and Venus bringeth no good tydinges to olde men and others that vse many women for they shall bée bitten and not hurt euery man looke to himselfe and
