verity hereof and it hath been one main argument of my ingaging so far in all the parts of Astrologie for very rarely you shall find these rules fail Thus Mr. Lillie with his feeble argument for the verity of Astrologie which argument of his can prove Astrology to be no better then Witchcraft But I have another of our English Star-masters Mr. Booker in his Bloody Almanack Mr. Booker who writing of the conjunction of Saturn and Mars saith thus viz. I am herein saith he much incouraged by those labours of my friend Mr. Lillie not onely printed in these times but made more memorable in the success I have observed hath followed his Astrological Predictions a few of which I will repeat that the misguided infancy against Astrologie may not be destitute of sufficient testimony in his onely Writings of the verity of that Art by which art at this time I write the ensuing Discourse Thus Mr. Booker Wherefore my Reader consider what these aforesaid Astrologers have said for the verity of their art of Astrologie and thou shalt see that their best and strongest arguments that they can produce to warrant the legality and verity of A rologie by I say thou Reader mayst see that by their own arguments the legality and verity of Astrologie is proved no more then the legality and verity of Witch-craft by their own aforesaid argument of the event falling out according to the Prediction But seeing I have sufficiently declared against this argument in shewing the insufficiency of the same to prove Astrologie any better then Witch-craft therefore I here leave it and so proceed on to the next position of the Astrologers wherein they do affirm that the World is governed by Stars and Angels Now their said position is this viz. that from the beginning of the World there were 7. Spirits appointed as Rulers to the 7. Planets and every one of these Spirits ruleth the World 354. years and 4. months in order Tritemius Avenazre Now then for as much as I am here to write of the Astrologers Planetary Angels or Spirits therefore I will evidently set forth to the view of all men what the said Angels or Spirits are that so all rational men may understand and see how the Astrologers would delude others as they themselves are deluded for that they believe a lye in their affirming Gods governing of the World by planetary Angels which said planetary Angels are very Devils Wherefore I say again and again I will affirm it as followeth viz. That the Astrologers 7. planetary Angels are no other Angels or Spirits then those 7. chief Angels or Spirits which are the only Agents for the Magicians and Conjurers in their several operations of conjuration that this is truth I am able to prove by the writings of some of your Authours and others Also I can bear witness to the same from my own experience Mr. Lilly Tritemim Avenazre for you Astrologers say that the names of your Planetary Angels are these viz. 1 Cassiel 2. Zachariel 3. Samael 4. Michael 5. Anael 6. Raphael 7. Gabriel Thus they are also called by the Magicians and Conjurers as you see here set forth by the Astrologers for the Magi●ians know them by these names viz. 1. Cassiel Heptameron Petri de Albano 2. Zachariel 3. Samael 4. Michael 5. Anael 6. Raphael 7. Gabriel Aga●n these 7. Angels are thus by the Astrologers appropriate unto the 7. Planets viz. unto Saturn Cassiel unto Jupiter Zachariel unto Mars Samael unto the Sunne Michael unto Venus Anael unto Mercury Raphael unto the Moon Gabriel and as you see they are appropriate unto the 7. Planets by the Astrologers even so in the very same manner they are appropriate unto the ● Planets by the Magicians Also in like manner as the Astrologers do divide the days of the week amongst the 7. Planets and so from hence they call the 7. days of the week after the names of the Planets by appropriating the days of the week unto the Planets as followeth viz. unto the Planet Saturn they give Saturday unto Jupiter Thursday unto Mars Tuesday unto the Sun Sunday unto Venus Fryday unto Mercury Wednesday unto the Moon Munday even so do the Magicians Moreover the Astrologers do divide the day into 12. equal parts whether the day be long or short these parts they call planetary hours these planetary hours the Astrologers appropriate unto the 7. Planets for them to rule in from hence it is that they are called planetary hours After this manner do the Magicians and Conjurers also and as you here see how Astrologie and Magick do begin together even so do they end together for there is such a strong tye between these 2. arts that they cannot be separated one from the other without a renting of them both in peeces But now here to return again to my former matter where I laid down this position viz. That the 7. Planetary Angels of the Astrologers are 7. Devils c. Mr. Booker in his this years Almanack 1651. Now whereas Mr. Booker saith who dare or can deny Gods Government of the World by Angels and Stars and whereas Dr. G●ll hath made a Sermon of Gods Government of the World by Stars and Angels who in the same Sermon saith thus in the 2. page of his said Sermon viz And therefore before the times of restitution of all things Act. 3.21 which are at hand appear before the many oppressed divine truths be set free Dr. Gells Sermon p. 2. the truths in nature which together with those other have been long time decryed and trodden underfoot must be revealed and publickly made known Such is Gods Government of the World by Stars and Angels Thus Dr. Gell in the said Sermon doth in divers places speak of Gods Government of the World by Stars and Angels and so he being deluded with a superstitious and heathenish opinion of the Astrologers and Magicians striveth and laboureth with all the might and power he hath to delude others as he and his Auditory are deluded in that they be of a heathenish opinion concerning the Stars and also have a good conceit of the Devils as if God did govern the World by them Dr. Gells Ser. page 23. Mr Booker in his Almanack 1651. Now seeing Dr. Gell and Mr. Booker say who can deny or who dare deny Gods Government of the World by Stars and Angels therefore I say and hereby I give them to know and so with them all other of the same society to understand that I dare and can deny their said position in which they do affirm the Rule and Government of the World by Stars and Angels the which I do deny as followeth viz. That for as much as the Astrologers do affirm that the World is governed by secundarian Intelligences which said secundarian Intelligences are Stars Planets Constellations and Spirits Therefore I do deny the aforesaid assertion of the Astrologers for these reasons following viz. That
