signe of the Zodiack in which first at the creation they were placed after the opinion of Astronomers Thus far in generall Now some shine with one perticular light other with more They that haue the same shinning are moued with equall or vnequall course Plannets of vneuen course haue a proper motion to themselues ♄ ♃ ♂ Their coniunction is common or speciall Common are of these three together and it is called the greatest coniunction this through his slow motion foresheweth wonders as Astrologers say though their grounds are vncertaine yet we will set downe what they say not all as truths yet some may be probable Especially the sunne regarding destruction to kingdomes c. If such coniunction be in a fiery signe it presageth great drought In a watry signe it argueth raine in Aery mightie tempestes In earthly extreame cold In Masculine death of men In feminine death of women Speciall coniunction is either meane or extreame Meane of Saturne and Mars betokens warres contention strife of kings and Princes and to these prosperous successours if the dominant be good in coniunction The extreame coniunction of Plannets is great or lesse greater of ♄ Juit betokning new sects and other like If ♃ be all stronger shall be for the best if ♄ be stronger then followeth losse tribulation and greate discorde say the Astrologers ♄ Saturne is a star of a leaden cullour finishing his course in thirty yeares he is a Plannet masculine of cold and dry nature therefore melancholicke bad not fortunate whose proper house is in ♑ ♒ gouerning malancholike persons and diseases of that humor and those of a tough and congealed phleme as Lepry and Morphew But if he gouerne in his proper house in due aspect and degree most profitable experiments may be made against these infirmities His rule appeareth in conception of men as in the first moneth and in the eight moneth much more wherefore the child borne in this moneth through the bad aspect and coldnes of Saturne can scarce liue long he ruleth also the liues of men especially in their ende when old men be cold and full of fleame as say Astrologers ♃ Iupiter is a bright Plannet which runneth his course in 12. yeares his light is so great that it causeth a shadow being neare the earth of which he is called Phaeton He is hot and moyst of nature good masculine and his house is in ♐ and ♓ he ruleth ouer the sanguine yong men and merry sportes and ouer diseases springing of bloud not adduft and rightly disposed In his house remedies are best applied for cure of such infirmities Vnder his power is the child in the second but more in the ninth moneth and the childe that is then borne is of long life ♂ Mars is the 3 wandring star in cullour red or fiery shining his course is 2. yeares is a masculine exceeding hot schorching and dry nature after a sort malignant and infortunate His house is ♈ and ♍ he sheweth his force most vpon Cholerike persons and vpon motions of youth stirring to sedition and warre if he be well disposed in his house in fit aspect and degree there may be remidies vsed for the Frensie agues and other hot sicknesses He gouerneth the 3. moneth of conception and from 40 to 50. of mans age Now of starres that finish their course in like space of time ☉ ♀ ☿ in a yeare space ☉ The Sonne is the brightest of all wandring starres appointing seasons norishing life being the fountaine of light of heate and all vitall powers he is hot and meanely dry his house is ♌ he ruleth hot and dry affections and therefore in his rule is fit remedy for such In mans conception he ruleth the 4. moneth and gouerneth from 22. till 41. yeares of age ☉ by being nearest or farthest from the earth maketh Solsticium which is our Summer and Winter summer is ☉ being in ♋ at the highest winter solstic is ☉ being ♍ farthest from vs the motion of ☉ causeth like length of day and night ☉ in ♈ and ♒ the Sun in these pointes of heauen is equally moued in the 6. signes of our hemisphere and also in the six opposit although the points and times of both Equinoctialls vary and change ♀ Venus is a very white star she goeth neare ☉ sometime before him sometimes after him in the morning going before him she is called Lucifer in the euening following she is called Vesperugo and Hesperus ♀ is could and Ayery and moyst her house is in ☍ and ♒ She loueth youth women and wiues ruleth cold and moyst diseases happning most about the genitalls Therefore ♀ in her house in due aspect is best remedy for such she vseth her power in the 5. moneth and disposeth life from 14. to 20. yeares and two according to Astrologers ☿ Mercury is the least wandring star somwhat white his nature is changeable and full of turnings he is hote with the hote cold with the cold of the nature of him with whom he is ioyned his house is ♊ and ♍ is of force in marchandize of which he hath his name and mathematickes are vnder his rule he begins and followes studies reports rumors and newes He guideth the 6 moneth and from 4. to 14. yeares if hee ioyne with the higher Plannets he denounceth wett and flouds which also he doth meeting Venus in a wet house in his proper house windes c. ☽ The Moone is the lowest wandring starre finishing her course in 27 dayes 7. houres although this starre haue light of her owne yet doth she borrow her shining from the Sunne But because her essence or body is not alike but thicker in one place then another therfore she is not in all places enlightened alike from the Sunne That part which is turned from the Sunne is all of it shadowed and darkish but that which looketh vpon the ☉ is full of light and onely so much light as standeth towards vs seemeth to gaine or lose light as it is farther off or nearer the sun where as indeed euer the one halfe is enlightened from the sunne The face seemeth to be enlightened as ioyned with ☉ or departing from him The ☽ ioyned with the ☉ in the 4. first dayes is couered with greater light of the ☉ beames and is called the new Moone but departing from ☉ she appeareth still more enlightened and it is either in part or whole In part before and after the 8 day called the encrease and the wayn of the Moone In part lesse or more the lesse is when she is horned or halfe moone about the 4. day being distant from ☉ 2. signes and after 8. in the 26. day the halfe ☽ is seene about the 7. day and after 22. day when she is distant 3. signes or degrees from ☉ The greater apparition of the Moone in part is she being neare her roundnes which is about the 11 day and after the 19. day distant from ☉ 4 signes The full apparition of ☽ is when
