admits of the moity of each Planets Orbs. The Orbs of the Planets are thus understood viz. ♄ 9 Degrees ♃ 9 Degrees ♂ 8 Degrees ☉ 17 Degrees ♀ 7 Degrees ☿ 7 Degrees ☽ 12 Degrees Thus you see the Orbs of ♄ is 9 Degrees the half of which is 4 degr 30 min. the Orbs of ☉ is 17 Degrees the half thereof is 8 Degrees 30 Minutes this being added together makes 13 Degrees which tells you that when ♄ and ☉ are within 13 Degrees of a ☌ ⚹ □ △ or ☍ to each other they are said to be in a platick Aspect now if they are applying to the Aspect the good or evil thereby signified is not yet come to a perfect birth but if they be seperating then it is over I mean the heat thereof but it will be visable although in a declining condition till they are 13 Degrees separated and then it will wholly disappear you must likewise know that Aspects are dexter and sinister therefore view the folowing Table Sinister Aspects The 12 Signs Dexter Aspects   △ □ ⚹ ⚹ □ △ ☍ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♈ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♋ ♉ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♊ ♈ ♓ ♒ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♋ ♉ ♈ ♓ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♌ ♊ ♉ ♈ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♍ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♎ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♈ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♏ ♍ ♌ ♋ ♉ ♈ ♓ ♒ ♐ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♊ ♉ ♈ ♓ ♑ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♈ ♒ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♓ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♍ Here you see a Planet in ♈ casteth his ⚹ sinister to ♊ his □ sinister to ♋ and his △ sinister to ♌ his ⚹ dexter to ♒ his □ to ♑ and his △ dexter to ♐ the ☍ cannot be said to dexter or sinister however you see it falls in ♎ CHAP.

VI. Of the Division of the Heavens into 12 Equal Parts THe whole Globe is first and principally divided into four equal parts by two great Circles the Meridian and Horizon the Horizon divideth the Heavens into two Hemispheres the North and South called the upper and lower Hemisphere The Meridian cutteth the Heavens into two equal parts also viz. East and West called the oriental and occidental parts thereof Every one of these are again divided into three equal parts more by Circles of Position which intersect the Equator and do likewise meet in the Points of Section of the grand Meridian with the Horizon Thus are the Heavens equally divided into 12 Parts which the Learned have called Mansions or Houses Oriental Houses are the 3 2 1 12 11 and 10. Occidental Houses are the 9 8 7 6 5 and 4. The 1st 10th 7th and 4th Houses are Angles The 11th 5th 8th and 2d are succedent Houses The 12th 9th 6th and 3d are cadent Houses Houses opposite to each other are the 1 and 7 2 and 8 3 and 9 4 and 10 5 and 11 6 and 12. The upper Hemisphere containeth the 12 11 10 9 8 and 7th Houses The lower Hemisphere have the 6 5 4 3 2 and 1st Houses A Scheme or Figure of the Heavens The Lines that the Figures stand by shew the entring or Cusp of each House The 1st 12th and 11th Houses signifies Child-hood The 10th 9th and 8th youth or young people Th 7th 6th and 5th man-hood The 4th 3d and 2d old age The use that may be made hereof is this if in a Figure of a Revolution of any year of the World Eclipse great Conjunction c. You find the Lord of the Ascendant in the 11th afflicted by the Lord of the 8th You may judge there will be a great Death or Mortallity among Children or such as are under 15 years of Age but you must also have respect to the Planet for ♄ signifies old people ♃ ♂ and ☉ such as are in the prime of their Age ♀ and ☿ Youth ♄ in her first quarter Children in the second Youth in the third Man-hood and in her last quarter those that are well in years CHAP. VII To erect a Figure of the Heavens for any hour of the day or night by a Table of Houses IN erecting a Figure you must be advised in these things First be sure you are furnished with a Table of Houses fitted for the Latitude of the place you intend to erect your Figure in Secondly Consider the Year Month day of the month day of the Week the hour and minute of the day Thirdly You must have by you in a readiness an Ephemeris or Almanack that have the true places of the Planets Fourthly In your Ephemeris for that year and in the Month against the day find the place of the Sun in Signs Degrees and Minutes at Noon Fifthly Have recourse to your Table of Houses and seek the Sun's place under the 10th House then take the hour minute and second that stands right against it under the title time from noon and add it to the hour and minute of the day or night you erect your Figure for with which Sum enter the Table of Houses again if it exceed not 24 hours but if it do deduct 24 hours from it and with the remainder enter the Table under time from noon against it in a right Line you will have the Cusp of the 10 11 12 1 2 and 3 Houses and then upon their opposite Houses place the opposite Signs Degrees and Minutes This being done find by the Ephemeris the places of all the Planets at the day proposed and set each one of them in his proper place in the Figure Where note if the degr and min. of the Planets place be more than the Cusp of the House possessed by the Sign he is in you must set him over the Cusp in the House but if his degr and min.

VI. Of the general and constant Qualities of the four Quarters of the Year SECTION I. Of the Spring THe most glorious and delightful Season of the whole Year is the Spring which takes its beginning when the Sun enters ♈ then making the Days and Nights equal all over the World except under the Poles and he then leaving the Inhabitants of the Southern Hemisphere doth begin to refresh and revive with his glorious and cherishing influence all those that inhabit the Northern Hemisphere this Quarter is generally hot and moist signifying Child-hood it continues all the time that the Sun is passing thorough ♈ ♉ ♊ And the Rulers hereof are ♂ ♀ ☿ and they Physically denote vigour delight and mutability So accordingly while the Sun is in ♈ all Vegetables put forth their Leaves and Blossoms and Nature is indued with a Spring-like force while the Sun is in ♉ the Leaves and Flowers of the Fields expand themselves after a delightful manner and Dame Vesta opens her Paradice of Pleasures to all her Children while the Sun is in ♊ Nature's Limners are at work and out of the force of ♂ and the delights and pleasances of ♀ paint to the World a million of pleasant Varieties SECTION II. Of Summer The next glorious Season begins where the Spring ends at which time the Sun enters ♋ and he being then mounted his Apogaeon is removed to his greatest distance from the Earth and being in his greatest Declination North-ward maketh longest Days and shortest Nights to all we that inhabit the North side of the Aequator this Quarter is generally hot and dry signifying Youth it continueth all the time the Sun is perambulating the Signs ♋ ♌ ♍ and the Rulers hereof are ☽ ☉ ☿ the ☽ here precedes the ☉ in Government and all the Births of the fore-going Spring are now swel'd to a pleasing Dropsie and so they remain during the Sun's continuance in ♋ and then so soon as he enters ♌ he assumes a particular so well as a general power of governing and by his great heat reduces all Vegetables from their Anasarchal swelling to a positive hectick Fever thereby ripening Seeds Flowers Fruits c. which he fails not to put forwards while he continues in this his Royal Palace Lastly ☿ brings up the rear of this Season and while the ☉ is in ♍ it being an earthly Sign he herein reduceth all things from their hectical condition into a direct Marasmus and now all things are ripe for the Sycle and the honest Countrey-man goes whisling with his Cart loaden to the Barn SECTION III. Of Autumn This Season begins when the Sun enters ♎ at which time he once more maketh the Days and Nights equal it is by Nature cold and dry signifying Manhood and continueth all the time that the Sun is running through the Signs ♎ ♏ ♐ and the Rulers hereof are ♀ ♂ ♃ first ♀ bestows her tears upon the Hearse of the deceased Summer and hereby generates a Phaenix out of the old ones Ashes and so while the Sun continues in ♎ we are made happy with a second Spring but of no long continuance next comes ♂ and he while the Sun is in ♏ endeavours to add heat to the moisture Venus lent the better to cherish the later Summer but that too is soon returned by reason of the absence of the Sun the Fountain of all heat and grand Principle of Generation Lastly ♃ by his Balsamick Beams while the Sun is in ♐ endeavours to perfect what the other two could not alone and so conserves the mummial virtue of all Plants Herbs Fruits c. for the good of humane kind and for the preservation of the Species of all things to the end of this Quarter which is as far as his Government extends SECTION IV. Of the Brumal or Winter Quarter This Season commenceth at the Sun's entrance into ♑ and he being in his Perigaeon or nearest to the Earth also in his greatest South-Declination maketh shortest Days and longest Nights to us that inhabit the North-side of the Aequator this Quarter is by Nature cold and moist signifying old age it continues all the time that the ☉ is transiting the Signs ♑ ♒ ♓ and the Rulers hereof are ♄ and ♃ but ♄ hath a double power to that of ♃ and hence it is that all things this Quarter more especially while the Sun passeth through ♑ and ♒ look with a sad and lowring face and are seen to wear the Image of Death and Destruction now Frosts Snows Hail black Clouds Rain Isicles Barrenness extremity of cold and all things that are negative to delight and pleasure have their Regency but ♃ by his gentler moisture while the Sun is in ♓ puts us in hopes of an approaching Spring And thus by this orderly government of the Planets through the several Seasons of the Year are we put in mind of the passage of the several parts of our life hereunto agreeable viz. how we pass the Spring of our Infancy and Adolescency the Summer of our Youth and strength the Autumn of our Manhood and declining years And lastly the Winter of our Old-age where ♄ stands ready with his Sythe to cut us down And how by passing this vale of misery this natural death we go onward to the government of ♃ to immortallity and a blessed life where we shall behold God Almighty in glory Of Eclipses CHAP. I. What an Eclipse is the cause thereof what time a Figure should be erected for judging the effect of it what things or places it concerns either good or evil the time when its effects shall begin how long continue Of all these in order we shall treat IN omni revolutione Annorum Mundi Eclipsin Solis Lunae non postpones In every Revolution of the World we must be sure to remember the Eclipses of the Luminaries SECTION I. An Eclipse of either of the Luminaries is only a privation or obscurity of
