it rain then the corn withereth S. James day before noon betokneth the winter time before Christmas and after noon it betokeneth the time after Christmas If it be so that the Sun do shine on S Iames day it is a token of cold weather but if vain thereon it is a token of warm and moist weather But if it be betwéene both that is a token of neither too warme nor yet too cold 8 How the Winter should be the twelve Moneths If a man desire to know what faire weather shal be in every moneth or what rain then must he mark in what hour the new Moone is in and under what signe and what planet ruleth the same hour so sual the same moneth be hot and dry cold and moist after the judgment and manner of the foure times of the yéere Item when the Moon is new changeâ— what weather shall be that moneth shâ—lbe found out after this manner If the Moon shine this and cleare and so followeth wind 〈◊〉 the Moone pale so shall it raine If it 〈◊〉 in the next moneth after a new Moone 〈◊〉 shall it raine forth the whole moneth 9 The saying of Sylinus and Petrus If the Sun have in the morning under him trouble some clouds then shall ye have â—aine and much tempest of weather if the Clouds be troubled in the morning early and blacke then shall there blow a strong North wind If the Sun and Element be red in the morning it betokeneth rainy weather If it be â—â—d in the Evening it is a token the next day shall be faire weather 10 The Circles about the Sun Moone and other Stars GUido Bonarus speaketh on this wise wée shall mark the circles which be somtime about the Sun and about the Moone whether they be one or more if there be but one they being cléer and not long enduring and quickly vanish'd it betokeneth a faire and cléere weather following and a good and cléere ayre and when there be many circles it betokeneth wind if they be of colour red cléere in many parts then it betokeneth trouble in the ayre And if they be grey dark and of earthy colour then it betokeneth trouble in the ayre through cold and wind and it bringeth in the winter time snow and in summer time raine When they be blacke it betokeneth in the winter wind and snow and in summer raine and when they be many then doe the same the more increase 11 The colours and lights of the other Stars When the Stars give great light it betokeneth wind from the same parts where those lights be séene When the stars be misty dark as though they shined through a myst and that all the same time there be no Clouds in the element it is a token of trouble in the Ayre and much raine or snow after the time of the yeare And when they be cleare and red they judge it to be windy Likewise if thou séest the common Stars thicke darke and of course sight it betokeneth alwayes change of weather If thou in cleare weather séest the Starres shoot and fall downe to the earth that is a token that there shall be shortly after wind from those parts where the starres doe shoot and the more they shoot the stronger shall be the wind For when you sée such things present it betokeneth inordinate wind and when you sée such like in every part of the element that is a token of great trouble in the Ayre in all parts with thunder and lightning 12 How to know the Weather by the rising and going down of the Sun When the Sun ariseth cleare and faire it is a token of a faire day When the Sun ariseth and hath about him red Clouds it is a token that it will rain that day When there be Clouds in the Orient so that the Sun cannot shine through them at his arising it is then a token of raine When the kuglin is in the rising of the Sun it betokeneth a sharpe wind and in the going downe of the sunne faire weather When there be Clouds about the sun when he riseth the lesse that the Sun doth shine the more redder be the Clouds When at the rising of the sun there procéedeth a long shining it betokeneth raine When afore the rising of the Sun-shine doth appeare it betokeneth water and wind When the sun in the rising is dark either hid under a Cloud it betokeneth raine When the sun is cleare and that it giveth light from the middle part against the rising about midnight that betokeneth rain wind When long shining beames goe before the sunne it betokeneth a dead and strong wind from those parts that the beames doe shine When by the accident at Night there is a shining circle it betokeneth that night a boistrous and unruly weather and if there be a myst the stronger shall the wind be if the myst fall from the sunne it betokeneth wind in the Region beyond where it falleth When the sun ariseth black or with clouds under it or that he hath on both parts clouds the which some men call the Sun or sun-beames which procéed from the sunne whether they be black of colour or no it betokeneth a winter ayre or raine When the circle that is round about the Sun in the rising or going down thereof is in many sundry colours or else as red as fire or else that the light of the Sun doth fall or that the colour be setled or that the Clouds stand thereby or that the Sun-beams be very long it signifieth a strong wind to come from those parts When in the rising or going downe of the Sun the light or shining thereof goeth before and evening the Element is red it betokeneth the next day faire weather And when the shining thereof in the rising or going down be not right it betokeneth rain 13 Albertus of the Lightning If the colour of lightning be red and cléere the flames white red or the colour of snow that betokeneth all things fruitfull the other helpeth to the beinging forth and doth neither hurt nor hinder except it be too far withered The third goeth through and setteth forth 14 Of the Rain-bow from whence he is and what it signifieth When the Rain-bow is cléere and appeareth bright in clear weather then shall it not be long cleare after which betokeneth a winter ayre or raine Item When thou séest in the morning a Rain-bow it betokeneth rain the same day and there shal be a great boystrous storme Item when the Rain-bow doth appear about thrée or foure of the clock in the afternoon it betokeneth fair weather and there shall be against in a strong dew Item When there doth a Rainbow appear about noon it betokeneth much water Item When the Rain-bow doth appear about the going down of the Sun then doth it for the most part thunder and rain Item When it appeareth in the Orient then followeth fair weather Item when the Rain-bow appeareth in boisterous weather in the
North it betokeneth fair weather and clear And contrariwise when he appeareth and is séen with a clear Summer whether in the West or at noon it followeth rain Haily saith when the Rain-bow appeareth in fair and clear weather it betokeneth increase of raw weather and in the Winter it betokeneth lesse 15. Of Thunder and Lightening When in the time of winter the Sun is in Capricornus Aquarius especially from Lucy untill the tenth of Ianuary if the thunder be heard then shall it be from the begin-of the Lightning throughout the whole year more windy than any other yéer is When in Summer it thundreth more then it lightneth it is a sing of wind that shal come from the same place whence the thunder cometh but if there be séen more Lightning then is heard of thunder then shall the wind come from the place where the Lightning is séen If it thunder less then Lighten that is a token of rain with fair clear weather shall both thunder and lighten or else thunder and lighten out of all foure quarters but mark if it come onely from the East part there shal be next day rain from the North and wind When it thundreth early it betokeneth both â—ind and rain to come from the day 16. To know the weather by the four quarters of the yeare as sheweth Leichtenberger What weather there shall bee on the day that the Sun enters into Aries and in the text day after their operation shall be for the most part in the Harvest in September October and November Item Aries worketh the one day when the Sun goeth in Leo the next day before and after and so shall be the winter especially December January February for the winter giveth him wholly and leaveth on the North that is to say from the mid-night which is the Orient East and that time shall be dry then shall be great frost and cold But if it come in South Austro which is of the mid-day either west Occident then that time shall be moist and but little Ice If the weather be dry after the moistnes so shall the winter be unstable On that day that the Sun goeth into Libâ—â— marke the weather the next day afore it and the next day after it And when the weather is given to lightning more in March Aprill May theu mark that also For as the weather is in those dayes that come next after and afore when the Sun entreth into Aquarius so shall it be in the most part of the summer Iune Iuly and August In them many wise men doe conclude how the weather shall be all the time that the Sun is from Libra to Scorpio even to the 20 degrée that is that from the 14 day of September unto Alballowes day and commonly it shall be likewise in the yeare following And this time is reckoned among the twelve moneths so that foure dayes are reckoned for a moueth and every day betokeneth a quarter of a Moon which is seven dayes and November is reckoned for the first moneth 27 How to know the weather out of the new and full Moones On the third day before the new and full Moon mark well the Moon when there goeth or procéedeth from her a cleare light shining it betokeneth faire weather and also windy and if the Moon be black or darke it is a token of fold ayre and rainy When there is a fair and clear circle by the Moon and that being sharpe and bright it betokeneth a fair and clear ayre and if there be two or thrée rings about the Moon it betokeneth a cold winter ayre When there is a darknesse about it it is a token of winterly ayr which cometh through strong winds And if there be black about it then â—is a token of sueh like weather also When the Moon ariseth and shineth fair it betokeneth fair weather red wind black rain Likewise as the weather is on the third day after the new and full Moon so shall the weather be ten days after most commonly A sudden and hasty rain cometh alwayes from the wind that went before The greatest winds be commonly in harvest the sudden coming of cold and heat cometh of the wind and of the rain There goeth commonly afore Thunder great winds When the wind goeth from the â—ccident then it is commonly rainy weather From the East is faâ—re weather From mid-night it is cold and hard weather From noone hurtfull and unhealthfull weather If it doe haile in the midst of Summer it is a token of great cold in the higher Region of the ayre When the lower part is hot that causeth Haile to come from above 18 Of the Eclipse of the Moone the cause thereof how and when they happen YOu are to note that an Eclipse of the Moone is nothing else but the interposition of the earth betwéene the bodies of the Sun and Moone they being Diametrically opposite as if a line drawne from the center of the Sun to the center of the Moone should passe directly through the center of the earth which only happeneth at the time of the Opposition or full Moone and not at every full Moone neither but onely when they méet in the head or tail of the Dragon which is only the intersection of two Circles viz. the Celiptique and the Different which is the Circle that carrieth the Moon about and you are likewise to note that an Eclipse of â—he Moon appeareth to all those above whose Horison the Moon is at the time of the Opposition though it be otherwise with the Eclipse of the Sun for a Solar Eclipse is to some total to others partial and to others not at all visible though the Sun be at the time of the Conjunction above all their Horizons c. To find when the Moon shall be eclipsed and when not by her distance from either of the two fections called the head and tail of the Dragon IF the Moon at the time of her true opposition to the Sun shall be distant from either of these two points less than 10 degrées 21 minutes and 20 seconds then must the Moon suffer an eclipse But if her distance as before be more then 13 degrées 5 minutes and 23 seconds then the Moon at that full cannot be eclipsed Therefore if her distance be more than 10 degrées 21 minutes 20 seconds and lesse than 13 degrées 5 minutes 23 seconds than she may happen to be eclipsed but not necessarily 20. To find when the Sun shall be eclipsed and when not IF the apparant latitude of the Moon at the time of the visible conjunction be lesse than 30 minutes 40 seconds there must be an eclipse But if the apparant latitude of the Moon be more than 34 minutes 51 seconds there cannot be an eclipse Therefore if the apparant latitude be more than 30 minutes 40 seconds and lesse than 34 minutes 51 seconds there may be an eclipse 21. How to behold an Eclipse of the Sun without hurt
