Creatures And then the Caldeans and others brought them into these Forms as in these latter times ♈ ♉ ♊ ♋ ♌ ♍ ♎ ♏ ♐ ♑ ♒ ♓ ♄ ♃ ♂ ☉ ♀ ☿ ☽ Now it may please my Reader to take a view of Ancient Times as in the following Chapter CHAP. IV. The Instrument of the Hebrews whereby to know Events to come THE Antients had of these Instruments and made use of them in their Practices as may be made appear out of the Historians some of which have made mention of the Caldeans Astrology as namely Q. Curtius who gave a● account of all those that went forth out of Babylon for to receive Alexander the Great he saith Magnum deinde suo more Carmen canentes post Chaldaei Babyloniorum non Vates modo se etiam Artifices Where by the word Artifices he means those Astrologers who made their Practice those Arts and this is the gloss of Heurnius Ii Astrologi qui Astrorum Cursus observabant vera Instrumenta in eum usum fabricantes Here we may discover what the Ground was of that Fable of Atlas King of the Mauritanians or Phoenicians who fled before the Army of Joshua for the Heavens which the Greeks whom we may truly say have been the corrupters of all Antiquity say that this Man who was both King and Astrologer bare up with his Shoulders was only a Globe or Sphere not much unlike ours in late time which he made use of for the Motions of the Heavens The first Piece of that Instrument was the Base or Foot of it which was made of a thin Plate of Copper and hollowed in the manner of a Bason the three small Pillars lifted up from the Superficies whereon was written these three words 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Din Schalom Emet viz. Judgment Peace Truth These Pillars bare up two great Semicircles which made up a Triangle with such artifice that it was nevertheless in the Superficies Within you have a great perfect Circle and within it two others and all the same Metal with the Base the first which was the greatest of these Circles had these words upon it 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Schemai Haschamaim the Heaven or Heavens the second had only upon it 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Shamaim the Heaven the third had only one Word 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 Raquiagh which signifies Expansum The last and the first are nothing so much admirable as the middlemost which was beset round with very many little Circles which were all movable among which there were seven which appeared more eminent●…●●an the rest because they were placed by the Centre of the Instrument all these little Circles had small Stars on them and those which were upon the seven Circles were marked each of them with one of those Letters 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 which signifies the Planets in order first ♄ near these Letters was seen these following words in Hebrew Jom Rischon Schni Schelicsi Revighi Chamischi Chicsi Scevighi viz. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 days every one of the Circles of the Planets had upon them the number of Years they finished their Courses in and that of the ☽ had Engraven on it these 12 Characters viz. א ש ט ● ת ת א א ● ת א נ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♈ These are the Names of the 12 Signs of the Months And now I 'll also give them at large in Hebrew viz. 1 Nisan 2 Atiri 3 Stuan 4 Tamuz 5 Ab 6 Aelot 7 Tisri 8 Tisuan 9 Ristien 10 Tebet 11 Sch●bec 12 and last is Adar And thus we reckon our Months as March April c. Now these Circles were ordered so exactly as that one might perfectly discern the degrees and distances there set down in the middle of all and in the very Centre there was placed a little Blue Ball which was a little hollowed supposed to be the Earth Here you see that Astrology is no new thing and the heavenly Spheres in a perpetual motion I should not have here made this Observation but only that I might be the better able hereafter to make known the Virtue of the Antients Astrology with that of the Egyptians and the more Learned among the Arabians CHAP.
