A96163 Astrologie theologized: wherein is set forth, vvhat astrologie, and the light of nature is. What influence the starres naturally have on man, and how the same may be diverted and avoided. As also, that the outward man, how eminent soever in all naturall and politicall sciences, is to bee denied, and die in us. And, that the inward man by the light of grace, through profession and practice of a holy life, is to be acknowledged and live in us: which is the onely means to keep the true Sabbath in inward holinesse, and free from outward pollution. / By Valentine Weigelius.

ASTROLOGIE Theologized Wherein is set forth VVhat Astrologie and the light of Nature is What influence the Starres naturally have on Man and how the same may be diverted and avoided AS ALSO That the outward Man how eminent soever in all Naturall and Politicall Sciences is to bee denied and die in us AND That the Inward man by the light of Grace through profession and practice of a holy life is to be acknowledged and live in us Which is the onely means to keep the true Sabbath in inward holinesse and free from outward pollution By Valentine Weigelius Sapiens dominabitur Astris LONDON Printed for George Whittington at the blue Anchor in Cornhill neer the Royall Exchange 1649. Astrologie Theologized CHAP. I. What Astrologie is and what Theologie and how they have reference one to another AStrologie is Philosophie it self The Kingdom of Nature or it is the whole light of Nature from whence ariseth the universall naturall Wisdome or a solid sincere and exquisite knowledge of naturall things which light of Nature is twofold externall and internall Externall in the Macrocosm internall in the Microcosm Or Astrologie is the very knowledge of good and evill which is and bears rule in things subject to Nature which science flourishing in man unlesse it be ruled and governed by Theologie that is divine Wisdome as the handmaid by her mistresse it is vicious And by her specious appearance and concupiscible jucundity man seduceth himself and as it were by eating of the forbidden tree or by who reing with the creatures he maketh his soule the Babylonian Whore sitting upon the Beast having seven heads and ten hornes c. and being sweetly deceived of himself obtains eternall death to himself But Theologie is the whole light of grace The Kingdom of grace happening to man from the holy Spirit effused from above which is the universall wisdome of the Kingdom of Heaven and the saving knowledge of divine and supernaturall things making chast and purging the soul from every defilement of sin abiding in the mortall body in respect whereof that naturall Wisdome is but a shadow which when the world is blotted out and removed will together with it be blotted out and removed and then Theologie alone shall reigne Astrologie is so called because it ariseth from the Stars As Theologie because it flowes from God To live Astrologically is with a pleasing concupisence to eat of the Tree of the knowledge of good and evill and to bring death to himself To live Theologically is to eat of the wood and Tree of life by an intimate abnegation of ones self and thence to attain to ones self Life and Salvation The Light of Nature in Astrologie with his incitative fruits is the probatory instrument whereby Man placed in the midst that is between God and the Creature is proved which way he would direct or convert his free will desire love and appetite whether to God his Creatour by loving him above all things with his whole heart with his whole mind with his whole soul and with his whole strength which should be the Theologicall life Or whether casting God behind he would reflect to himself and to the Creature by love of himself and arrogating of good things received which was the Astrologicall life at the Babilonish fornication as will appear by that which followeth Astrologie possesseth our soul with the externall body wherein the Light of Nature dwells and shines forth in some more excellently in others lesse And it contains in it self two things 1. All kind of Sciences Arts Tongues Faculties and naturall Studies all the gifts as well of the mind as of the body and also all negotiations occupations actions and labours of men how many soever of them are found exercised and used in all times upon the whose earth every where amongst men aswell grosse as subtile aswell old as new serving aswell to good as to bad uses 2. Under Astrologie are referred all orders states and degrees of men distinctions of persons dignities gifts offices and every kind of life as well naturally ordained by God himself as thought of and invented by humane wit and found out in the whole world from the highest and most honourable to the lowest and most base All these are the fruits of the Starrs and have their originall from Astrologie and pertain to the body and soul and may be as well good as bad according to the divers pleasures of the users and abusers But Theologie possesseth our Spirit which we have from God which alone is Theologus that is the Speech of God the Breath of God the Word of God being and inhabiting in the Temple of our heart from which alone according to sacred Letters true Theologie is to be drawn forth That is the knowledge of God of things divine and celestiall and supernaturall arising from within from the illumination of the holy Spirit it self dwelling within us According to whose beck will and command we ought to institute direct and finish all our Sciences Arts Studies Actions Offices Vocations Industries Labors and kinds of of life invented drawn forth on earth from the Light of Nature so as whatsoever we think say or do in the world in all Arts Sciences and Labors it all proceeds from the Will of God and seems as it were to be done and governed by God himself in us as by his fit instruments For every Astrologicall gift comming from the Light of Nature ought to be ruled and subjected to the Divine will by the Theologicall Spirit dwelling in us that so the will of the Lord be done as in heaven so also in earth For all Wisdome both Naturall and Supernaturall is from the Lord. Astrologie is the science of tilling and perlustrating of the inferiour terrestiall earth ground garden Paradise from which Man was taken and made as to his body and his soul in the labor and culture whereof six daies were ordained and appointed But because this Science of it self confers not Salvation and eternall Beatitude but alone belongs to this present life it is necessary the Lady and Mistresse of all Sciences and Arts Theologie be added which seeing it is Wisdome from above it hath in it self the Science of tilling and perlustrating the celestiall earth ground garden paradise from whence also man was taken created according to the similitude and image of God which garden man also hath in himself to the culture whereof the seventh day alone which is the Sabbath day is appointed For so it was ordained between God and man from all eternity that Man should be God and God Man neither without the other that is as God himself is and will be the Paradise Garden Tabernacle Mansion House Temple and Jerusalem of Man So also was man created for the same end that he should be the Paradise Garden Tabernacle Mansion House Temple and Jerusalem of God that by this mutuall union and friendship of God with Man and of Man with God all
have within themselves in their soul in which the light of Nature the wisdom industry art and understanding rightly to instute handle perform their works which soul and which light are nothing els then the Astralic Heaven and Firmament in the Microcosm where every science art work hath his peculiar starr with the ascendants convenient to it self Therefore this science and operation is once a week to be laid aside and put off and we must sabathize in God that God may act and operate his work in us to wit the work of our conversion repentance amendment newbirth and of the new Creation that we may be made fit to enter into his Kingdom after death and the resurrection Furthermore also for this cause none of the aforesaid can see enter possesse the Kingdom of Heaven because such a workman is only born of flesh and blood is the old Creature of the earth of this world and is the son of the Firmament the off-spring of Nature and although he excells in the knowledge of naturall things yet all his science and knowledge is to take an end with the life of time He that would be capable of heaven ought to be the new Man born again of God regenerate the new Creature For nothing that is earthly can take or possesse heaven therefore none of those which we have hitherto recited and shall recite in the following things shall come thither unlesse ye be converted and become as an infant who knows none of these things There shall be a new Heaven and a new earth old things are passed away saith he which doth it all things are made new A new heaven therefore requires new inhabitants fit for it and capable of it for as man at first was created of the old heaven and of the old earth and was born of mortall seed in which earth he now temporally dwelleth So it also behoveth him to be created of that new heaven and of that new birth and to be born again to be regenerated of the immortall seed in which earth he would be and inhabit eternally The third reason is because the Light of Nature with all kinds of their Sciences is given to man for this life only to till the earth for the labour of his hands to eat his bread in the sweat of his countenance c. and belongs only to the sustentation of the naturall and temporall life living in the mortall body and the body being dead and the world blotted out no such thing remaineth therefore we have no need of corn vines buildings tents houses garments meat c. therefore neither knowledge nor desire of getting or labouring for such things the cause ceasing the effect ceaseth The fourth reason is because man was not made of God finally for this world or for those things which are in this world but chiefly for the Kingdom of God where none of these things is found or is in use which in this life are every where agitated and handled with men throughout the divers shops of the light of Nature The fifth is because man was therefore constituted for a time only in this world that he might ascend from the inferiour things and seek after the superiour things that is that by naturall light and wisdome as it were from a looking glasse or shadow he might learn to know and apprehend the heavenly light and wisdom at whose Majesty and Glory all naturall things although glorious might plainly vanish and be annihilated and so leaving the inferiour and lesser light he should suddenly betake himself to and follow the greater and superiour light and departing from this transitory world forsaking and accompting all things for nothing which he receiveth hath and possesseth in this time from the world and having denied himself as a naked and new-born infant depart into that eternall mansion and region of the eternall Country and so come thither fasting and empty from the possession of all naturall science as if he had never at all been in this world or had not known any the least state of this world But these things are not propounded and written to that end that they should happen in contempt of Philosophy or of naturall sciences arts and faculties which are and flourish amongst men and which in this life cannot but be but rather that we being fraught with the sagacity of the Light of Nature may be led further may go forward and be excited to the knowledge of the greater light which may confer upon us a new birth eternall life and salvation For to all that covet and desire the Kingdom of God is the old man made of nature to be put off and laid down yea to be buried in an absolute abnegation and oblivion as well of himself as of all those things which he hath possesseth studieth knoweth learneth and the new Man is to be put on which is created according to God where there is neither Jew nor Greek neither male nor female neither bond nor free but the new Creature I say the new Creature is required to possesse the Kingdom of God wherein there is nothing left of the old leven The old leven is the knowledge of good and evill beginning to spring in man from the forbidden tree and is the prudence or subtilty of the serpent But the new heaven is the heavenly wisdom the simplicity of the dove from whom alone true life and beatitude flowes and which also only shall bear rule in the elect heirs of the Kingdom of God the naturall and terrene wisdom being then utterly together and at once swallowed up blotted out and extinct For the Kingdom of God is of such only who are converted from the old Creature into the new and become as children who never knew neither good nor evill Matth. 18.

Governours of the world and their operations and offices as well in the Macrocosme as in the Microcosme THe whole shop of Nature with all her sorts of sciences and actions is ordained and distributed into seven chief members Kingdoms or Dominions according to the seven Astra's of the Planets of the ☉ of the ☽ of ☿ of ♀ of ♂ of ♃ of ♄ who are the Governours of all naturall things extant in the whole frame of the world by the foure Elements But the Light of Nature which we call Astrologie is nothing els then the very life vigour vertue action and operation of the whole world in things which proceed and come forth from the soul of the world or the spirit of the Firmament whose seat is in the body of the Sun For there the soul of the world or the spirit of the Macrocosme dwells as the soul of the Microcosme in the heart and in the Sun it is most potent whence it diffuseth his vertues actions and powers out of it self ever and anon into the other six Planets the ☽ ☿ ♀ ♂ ♃ ♄ And moreover in all the other Starrs being throughout the whole stelliferous Chaos By this only soul the whole world lives is governed agitated and moved as a body by his spirit The Sun is the heart and light of the world in this heart I say the soul inhabits which illuminates all and every the Planets and Stars upwards above it self and downwards beneath it self as well in the day as in the night time and disperses his power into all and singular bodies as well the superiour things to the utmost superficies of the frame as also the inferiour things even to the inward Centre in the earth Yea the Sun by his vertue passeth through all corporealls like unto glasse The power and working of the Sun and operates in them without any impediment So his force penetrates the whole body of the Sea as glasse without any obstacle even to the lowest bottom thereof So the whole body of the earth full of pores on every side is passable to the Sun even to the inward point of his Circle So the Sun fills the sphear of Air also the Sphears of Heaven and enters into views and possesseth with his power all the Angels of all the regions and parts of the world as the soul doth his body of the Microcosme and not only the Chaos and the bodies of Elements but also all the generations and substances of all things whencesoever existing as well subtile as grosse as well light as heavy as well soft as hard mettalls mountains hills gemms rocks stones wood and whatsoever is every where so as it reacheth to the very Centre of the earth neither is his force and operation wanting or deficient there For all bodies though never so great grosse thick are altogether as glasse to the penetrative power of the Sun and although our eyes do not so expressely know and see this present ingressive penetrating subtile and active power of the Sun in all things but the grosse bodies alwaies are and remain in our eyes grosse dark shady Yet in respect of the Sun and to the vertue of the Sun after their manner all things are diaphane and perspicuous and penetrable Which solar vertue thrusts forth and produceth all things hid in the earth and as the Air is such that with the very vertue of the Sun it doth essentially enter into all bodies penetrate and fill all things For fire is the life of things Lise is fire no fire can burn that is live without Air wheresoever therefore there is life or fire or the vertue of the Sun there also is Air. The world a great Creature Now the whole greater world as to its soul and body with all the creatures that are therein is one Creature by it self and one animall and lives like an animall having in it self its vitall spirit endued with a sevenfold operation or diffused into the seven Planets into all the Starrs and into all the Elements and all vegetables Mineralls and animalls generated of Elements The Element of Fire hath his shop or seat in the body of the Sun Planets and all the Starrs in that fire the Phenix of the world or soul of the world dwells which operates all things and is the Light of Nature the Vulcan of Heaven the Arthens of Nature The Air is it's respiration and balsome The Water is it's blood The Earth is it's flesh In like manner also it is in the Minor World in Man who as to his soul and body the form excepted in all things answers to the Major World as a son to his father because taken out of him and placed in him In the heart is the seat or habitation of the soul of the little world or the Syderean Spirits whose vertue life motion nature force operation ever and anon by going forth diffuseth it self into the other six principall members of the Microcosme the Brain the Liver the Lungs the Gall the Spleen the Reins and from thence into the whole body and all the muscles veins nerves parts and extremities of the whole Microcosme and so that only soul resident in the heart carries governs agitates leads moves the whole body according to the nature and propriety of these seven principall members by which the body performs all his works as well artificiall and subtile as simple and rude As the soule of the Macrocosme labouring in the seven Governours of his body and the rest of the Starrs produceth all created things Therefore as to the concordance of these seven Governours Planers Starrs or vertues in the Major and Minor World it is certain that 1. The Heart In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 1. ☉ In the Macrocosme 2. The Brain In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 2. ☽ In the Macrocosme 3. The Lungs In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 3. ☿ In the Macrocosme 4. The Reins In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 4. ♀ In the Macrocosme 5. The Gall. In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 5. ♂ In the Macrocosme 6. The Liver In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 6. ♃ In the Macrocosme 7. The Spleen In the Microcosme is the same and hath the same force that as 7. ♄ In the Macrocosme And as to the Elements 1. The Flesh Hath his anatomy of the Microcosme 1. The Earth Of the Macrocosme 2. The Blood Hath his anatomy of the Microcosme 2. The Water Of the Macrocosme 3. The Respiration Hath his anatomy of the Microcosme 3. The Air. Of the Macrocosme 4.

the possession of a heavenly life unlesse he learn to drive away to subject this power his Saturnine Heaven with all his ascendent Starrs and resist every inclination thereof tending to evil through the instinct of the Serpent raign over it overcome it Good God here will some ignorant say from the instinct of the Serpent of what kind is this your Theologization of Astrologie which you here handle what mortal can believe that a husbandman a farmer a steward a vinedresser a potter a mettleman a mechanick a carpenter c. cannot be made an heir possessor of the Kingdom of heaven What is the Light of Nature to be contemned and altogether rejected and must we cease from all labour what ought we not at all to act work study learn search but to be plainly idle whence shall we receive food and rayment and other necessaries to the sustentation of life seeing no man whosoever is busied in the studies labours and works abovesaid can from them attain to eternall salvation the sentence of this book seems to be wonderfull indeed and estranged from truth I answer these things do not seem strange or obscure but to the ignorant nor are they indeed a hairs breadth estranged from truth so that they be rightly received and understood For nothing can be so truly spoken or written that by the ruder and lesse intelligent may not be called into doubt or be esteemed even for a lie But a lesson read which pleaseth being repeated ten times it will please Loe this our sence If thou art a Husbandman a Countryman a Farmer a Steward a Gardner a Seller of herbs a Vinedresser a Potter a Mettleman a Carpenter a Builder c. or busied in some other like kind of life then thou art constituted and walkest in the sphere of Saturn and art governed by the Saturnine Starrs which are in thee ever and anon ascending in thy imagination cogitation and sences ruling thee inclining thee hither and thither even as thy pleasure draweth thee by free will and the inward serpent perswadeth thee Now unlesse thou as a wise man shalt be cautious and attent and shalt over-rule thy Starrs running up and down flourishing and operating in thee or shalt Theologize thy Astrologie that is unlesse thou shalt learn to Sabbathize and to cease from all thy work and keep holy the Lords day according to the mind and sence of the divine precept it altogether is and abides impossible to thee by any means to enter into the Kingdom of God and come to the possession of eternall salvation For I will make it clear by a most manifest demonstration That never any Husbandman Farmer Countryman Steward Mettleman c. could enter into the Kingdom of God who neglecting and omitting the sanctification of the Sabbath departed out of this world But I would thou shouldest take these things rightly My judgment is that no Saturnist such as are before recited can enter into the Kingdom of Heaven but that he ought to be throughly converted and be made as an infant then at length he is fit to take enter and possesse the Kingdom of God not indeed as a Husbandman a Farmer a Steward a Builder a Vinedresser a Seller of herbs a Mettleman a Potter c. because there is no such thing to be done there for such workmen but see thou be as a child and infant as a new Creature as the Son of God For no man hath ascended to heaven but he which descended from heaven the son of God which is Christ and as many as received him he gave them power to be made the sons of God Now to receive Christ requires an inevitable putting off mortification yea destruction of the old Creature of the old man created of earth and the new birth of the same from above from whence also Christ is arisen Therefore the reasons and causes for which the Husbandman the Farmer the Steward the Builder the Vinedresser the Mettleman the Potter the Weaver c. cannot come into heaven are these First because in the celestiall Paradise or the Country of the Heavens there are no grounds nor oxen nor plows for Husbandmen nor farms or Lands for Farmers nor houses nor granaries for Stewards nor stones nor wood for Builders nor vineyards nor forks for Vine-dressers nor gardens herbs plants seeds for Herbsellers nor mountains fertill in metalls for Mettlemen nor loam nor clay for Potters nor flax nor wooll for Weavers and therefore there is not any need of any Husbandman Steward Builder Mettleman Potter Weaver neither shall those which inhabit there want such kind of science and industry For all these things are and are only to be found under the Zodiac in this corruptible world where in the last day at one time together and at once they shall be taken away and cease with the world So far therefore my husbandman as thy field thy oxe and thy plow shall be transported after the last day to the Kingdom of Heaven So far also shalt thou thy self with thy rustickscience and industry after this life enter into the Kingdom of Heaven that is never Therefore put off the old earthly and naturall man with all his science prudence craftinesse which thou usest in the handling of natural things and put on the new man which alone savours and desires heavenly things and leadeth thee to heavenly things by the exercise of the true Sabbath to be had in the spirit of thy mind every week And so far my Vinedresser as thy Vine and thy fork shall be found after the last day in the Kingdom of Heaven so far also shalt thou appear there with thy vinitory science and industry that is never For then all old things are passed away And so far my steward as thy houshold-stuffe and granaties shall be found out in the Kingdom of Heaven after the world is blotted out so far also shalt thou thy self be there with thy science and industry of domestick parsimony that is never For we do not act those things there which we are wont here And so far as my Gardner my Potter c. thy colworts herbs plants trees with thy garden and thy loam and clay shall after the world is defaced remain and be transferred into the perpetuall heaven so far also shalt thou thy self with all thy plantatory and pot-making science be promoted to the heavenly mansion that is never For the subjects and matter being wanting what can thy science profit thee So also it is with all the rest of the kinds and Sciences and Arts appertaining to the Astrologie of Saturn as are Mettlemen Rough Masons Stonecutters Smith and Carpenters all kind of Mechanicks Colliers Cornsellers Mowers Heardsmen Clothiers Weavers Shomakers Coblers and the like All these have their matter and subjects about which they are conversant and with which they are occupied without them in the Macrocosm which being taken away withdrawn all things wil be taken away withdrawn with them they

VIII Touching the Astrologie of Saturn of what kind it is and how it ought to be Theologized SAturn as to the description of his substance and nature in the Macrocosme is one of the chief of those seven Starrs which we call Planets or Governours of the world walking next of all in the aiery Region under the Firmament or Zodiac and ordained in a certain Sphear or Circle or Mansion the circuit of circle he finisheth he passeth over once in the space of thirty years time through the twelve celestiall Signs extant in the Zodiac His body arising from the Element of Fire and illuminating that is cherishing and governing the earth and what are in and on the earth his body is fiery and globous his Astralic force which is the firmamentall or syderean Spirit is invisible Now Saturn is conditioned with that nature propriety from the first creation that he may send forth exercise the vertue operation of his splend or light in his subjects existing here and there in the foure Elements as are vegetables mineralls animalls properly and in specie pertaining to him wherein he effects and frameth such a nature and vertue as he hath in himself Now Saturn hath his subjects appropriate to himself in every kind of creature amongst Vegetables he hath his young twigs his herbs his plants his flowers his trees in which he operates by his influence after his manner So amongst mineralls and mettalls also amongst animalls creeping going creatures cattell beasts watery and volatill creatures For the whole university of the creatures of this world with us men is divided into seven kinds or assemblies and dispersed into every region which answer to these seven Governours in their naturall vertues and proprieties as well internall as externall But touching the Astronomicall condition of Saturn and the rest of the Planets to wit what kind of motion position course quantity distance opposition conjunction and other dimensions of this kind they have amongst themselves also touching the difference of their weights in mettalls c. it is not our purpose here to handle them concerning such kind of things consult Astronomicall books and Chimicall books and the like publiquely extant abroad but we rather handle and shew this How all the studies and offices and kinds of life of all men have their originall from the Starrs and to which Planet every thing is to be referred Then how the whole Astrologie ought to be Theologized that is how every one of us ought to know discern hate put off say aside and deny the old man made of Astrologie with all his Wisdom Science Knowledge Prudence Industry Art and whatsoever a man hath occupies and possesseth of the gifts of Nature and in the denial of himself and all that he hath as well within as without altogether to grow a child again to be made an infant yea a fool and to put on the new Man which is created according to God to walk in newnesse of life to die to sin and to live to justice to know that Babilonian Whore and her Beast c. and to preserve himself from her c. to know the forbidden Tree and to eat of the Tree of Life and to passe over from nature into grace to be made a new creature to be born again to transplant himself from the terrene Paradise into the Heavenly to labour six daies and rightly to sanctifie the seventh and the like This is the intention end and scope of this our work Therefore Saturnists or the worshippers of Saturn whose minds desires wills inclinations affections concupiscences pleasures cogitations speculations inventions actions and labours are ascribed to Saturn as to their study and kind of life are men in whom is and flourisheth all kind of science and industry 1.
