the morning not immediately upon your wakening Besides you must consider the former life of the Patient to wit whether he you are to blood have used great quantity of meats or drinks principally of such as give great nourishment for if so one may blood them boldly but if on the contrary not so much notwithstanding to those who are too full of exces and are drunkards voluptuous or Gourmandizers never put your hand for truly one doth not help them much by taking blood from them because by their intemperance they immediately heap up abundance of humors Also one ought not neg igently to let slip the Custom of bleeding for those who have 〈◊〉 themselves to it do undergo it better then those who have not so that by very good r●●son one may blood those who have lost the benefit of evacuation of excrements by having forborn accustomed exercise But enough hath been spoken concerning the inferior Root let us speak now concerning the superior for as Galen saith in Libro de Criticis diebus and also as Philosophy saith The infer●or World is governed by the superior so that it is necessary for Chirurgions to consider the Influences of the seven Planets also of the Signes and other heavenly bodies to the end that having the knowledge thereof he may take heed of blooding in the part which is possessed by one of these Signes which Planets and Signes we will put in order according to the parts of the Body which they possess Upon what maladies the Planets rule In the first place Saturn cold and dry hath respect unto the melancholique humour and upon the maladies composed of melancholy and by consequence rules over the Spleep Jupiter hot and moyst hath respect to the blood and upon the maladies caused by blood and from that reason governs the Liver Mars hot and dry hath respect to the Choller and upon Chollerique Diseases and by this meanes governs the Cystis felix Sol hot and dry governs the Heart Venus cold and moyst extends her power upon the Vessels appropriate to generation Mercury of a temperate Complexion is indifferent to all the humours Luna cold and moyst hath power principally upon the Phlegme and Phlegmatique maladies she rules in the brain but her power is extended much further in that which concerns her property for elective blooding for she being delivered from her hindrance and in Conjunction with Jupiter Venus and Mercury in the sixth third and fourth opposition in her own sign it is excellent for blooding The Aspects of the Stars ought to be observed in blooding On the contrary it is not good to let blood the Moon being in Leo or in 12 degrees before or after the Dragon and principally you must take heed that Saturn be neither in opposition to nor conjunction with her or Gemini with Mars for such Aspects are very dangerous but the Moon being in conjunction with the three Planets above mentioned which is Jupiter Venus and Mercury it is very good Pisces and Sagitarius for the Phlegmatiques the first part of Libra for the Melancholique for the Chollerique Cancer and Pisces and their contraries which are Leo the second part of Libra and the first of Scorpio the others are indifferent and mean for Phlebotomie notwithstanding we will speak more particularly thereof hereafter Division of the times of the Moon But here it is worthy of observation that the Moon the Mother of humours is divided into four parts The first is from the Conjunction or new Moon unto the first quarter signified by Gemini which continues seven dayes wherein it is good to blood young Children The second is from Gemini until the Opposition which is the full Moon 7. dayes more wherein it is good to blood the young and active about the age of 20. or 30. years The third is from the opposition to the last part of Gemini when you may blood the strong and ancient from 30. to 60. years The fourth part of the Moon is the last 7. dayes of her last Gemini wherein you must blood the decaying who are above 50. years old only in cases of necessity but in whatsoever Aspect the Moon be you must not make incision on any member nor touch it with any Instrument or Cauterizer either actual or potential if the Moon be in the Signe ruling that member You must take notice that the third quarter is best for Phlebot Besides the first quarter is hot and moyst the second hot and dry the third cold and moyst and the fourth cold and dry 'T is true that at all times the Moon is effectively cold and moyst but in her several quarters she doth acquire several Complexions according to the several Aspects of the Sun so that we say Every one ought to be blooded in that quarter wherewith he hath most agreement or likeness and the first quarter begins after the Conjunction of the Moon with the Sun But you must here take notice that by Conjunction we mean when the Sun and Moon are in the same Signe And by opposition or full Moon we mean when the Moon is in one Signe and the Sun is in an opposite Sign in the half of the Zodiac But the Aspects of the Moon are Conjunction Opposition Quadrate Trine and Sextile marked by the Astrologers after this manner Conjunction in this manner ☌ Opposition thus ♂ Quadrate □ Trine △ Sextile ⚹ The propriety of the twelve Signes upon the humane bodies Besides we consider in the eighth Sphere which is the Starry Heaven and which is called the Zodiac twelve Signs whereof three are of the nature of fire which are Aries Leo and Sagittarius proper for Phlegmatique persons except in the burning parts above mentioned Signes which passe by eight Degrees unto the thirteenth degree of Sagittarius and doth strengthen the attractive faculty The other three are of the nature of water to wit Cancer Scorpio and Pisces very proper for cholerick persons good to comfort the expulsive faculty and to administer Laxative Physick The other three of the nature of Earth which are Taurus Virgo and Capricorn very good to sanguine persons and good to comfort the retentive faculty The other three participate of the Ayr to wit Gemini Libra and Aquarius these are very propet for melancholy persons and good to cherish the digestive faculty But for the knowing upon what parts of our Bodies the said Signes do rule we will set it down in order to the end that the Chirurgion commit no error therein for the day and hour wherein they concur you must have recourse to some good Almanack Ephemeris or rather to the Ephemerides of Origan which will continue yet untill the year 1660. You must take notice here that I send you to the Ephemeris to know in what day hour degree and minute the Sign will rule for it is out of my design to teach it you here or to know their Ascendant Conjunction or Oppositions good or bad although in my Book
